Each space is inspired by the unforgettable personalities of the heroic and villainous characters from favorite Disney stories, promising a truly immersive experience.

De Vil’s
Perfectly wretched! De Vil’s is a lavish, intimate piano lounge inspired by the iconic, villainous fashionista, Cruella de Vil. Her unforgettably bold flair, made infamous by Walt Disney Animation Studios’ One Hundred and One Dalmatians, comes to life with a sleek, signature color palette of red, black, and white—and, of course, spots!
Located off the Grand Hall, the lounge is inspired by Hollywood Regency design and features a fabulous, spotted grand piano to entertain adults with live music. Keep an eye on the ceiling above the piano, where a fiber optic Cruella will subtly appear and disappear.
For those at De Vil’s at the right time, be prepared “to take a sudden chill,” as the fabulous diva herself might just make an appearance. In “Treble Making with Cruella,” the fearsome fur lady takes over the piano lounge to rewrite the lyrics of her classic song and design a more flattering ode to her marvelousness.
The high-fashion piano lounge serves a selection of designer drink offerings, all inspired by characters from Disney films. Be sure to dress the part, as these couture beverages serve as the perfect last accessory, honoring Cruella de Vil’s classic legacy.

The Sanctum
Step into The Sanctum, Disney Cruise Line’s very first lounge inspired by Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange. This centrally located entertainment parlor hosts activities for families during the day before inviting adults to enjoy a mystical evening with live music and themed drinks.
The bar features a subtle design that makes it feel like a Sanctum hiding in plain sight. Look closely, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by mysterious curios from Doctor Strange’s New York Sanctum. Spellbinding trinkets designed to aid sorcerers are displayed, including Doctor Strange’s Cloak of Levitation and spell books from the library of Kamar-Taj. The circular window icon behind the bar is a nod to the seal protecting the New York Sanctum, and details throughout the lounge are inspired by the sorcerers’ light shields and mystical arts.
The Sanctum offers a menu for guests of all ages, including a magical array of mocktails, cocktails, spirits, and coffee. Electric and levitating libations from across the multiverse feature prominently in this spectacular lounge.
Cask & Cannon
“Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!” Skip walking the plank and walk on into Cask & Cannon, the pirate’s pub inspired by the classic Disney Parks attraction. This swashbuckling tavern is furnished with an eclectic mix of treasures that have been pillaged and plundered—or, “commandeered”—by the storied pirates themselves.
Here, the rum is never gone! Cask & Cannon serves a menu of rare, specialty, and vintage rums, even a selection of “bootlegged” brews on tap, served straight from the barrel. Surrounded by treasures, fishing nets, and rum bottles, this is a great space for a casual get-together, complete with live sports on televisions throughout the pub.
For fans of the Disney Parks attractions, take a close look at the details:
- The lanterns serve as a nod to the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction at Disneyland Paris.
- If you look closely at the portholes, you’ll find intricate carvings etched into charred wood, a nod to the burning village scene.
- Can you spot the jail cell keys? Don’t worry, there’s no prison pup onboard to taunt anyone with them.
When you look up, you’ll notice a fantastical map of the Caribbean Sea, with pirate ships representing the growing Disney Cruise Line fleet. When you look down, you’ll find a nod to the Pirates of the Caribbean film series, with Captain Jack Sparrow’s compass designed into the carpet.
Perfect for Pirate Night on the Disney Destiny, Cask & Cannon might even have a stop from Captain Jack Sparrow himself as he walks about the ship looking for a brave crew.
The Haunted Mansion Parlor
Welcome, foolish mortals. The Haunted Mansion Parlor is the spookiest space for a sympathetic libation onboard the Disney Destiny. Settle into a mysterious sea captain’s parlor and learn the unnerving story of his bride, with haunting cues from enchanted objects around the parlor brought to life by Madame Leota throughout the evening.
This fan-favorite lounge, which first debuted on the Disney Treasure, offers a haunting array of beverages, including an all-new menu of mocktails and cocktails exclusive to the Disney Destiny.
Inside, you’ll find several design elements that reflect the beloved Disney Parks attractions, from the mansion wallpaper to the haunted clock striking 13. You’ll also find unique additions, including a spooky aquatic focal point from the Walt Disney Imagineering archives: a ghostly fish tank filled with skeletal fish.
Whatever heroic or villainous turn your days take onboard the Disney Destiny, there is a one-of-a-kind lounge experience for the adults in your family during your Disney Cruise vacation.
