We are off on an adventure to seek out treasure…well, the Disney Treasure.

Yes, we’re getting a chance to check out the newest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, and we are so excited. We are exploring the ENTIRE ship so we can get you all the details about its dining, entertainment, activities, and more. But right now, we’re checking out the ship’s lounges, and YES, that includes the Haunted Mansion-themed lounge EVERYONE is so excited about. So let’s go!

Are you ready? Let’s get ready to LOUNGE! We’ll be checking out each of these lounges on our own in a bit, but for now, Disney has shared some sneak peeks and we just couldn’t wait to share them with you!

Haunted Mansion Parlor

The FIRST lounge we can’t wait to check out is the Haunted Mansion Parlor because we’ve been hyped about this bar since it was first announced. It’s a lounge…themed around the Haunted Mansion. Seriously, what’s not to love? For the first time ever, “Foolish mortals will sip spirited craft cocktails among 999 happy haunts.” So the story goes that the captain who owns the lounge met an untimely end after a “disastrous dinner with his beloved fiancé.”

We can’t get over how much it resembles the Haunted Mansion! We really feel like we’ve stepped right into the iconic ride.

There’s even a Donald Duck chair! Disney previously shared that this lounge will “immerse guests in the next chapter of the Haunted Mansion saga, bringing this fan-favorite lore to life in a whole new way. The one-of-a-kind experience will be a swinging wake unlike any other, that of a jovial captain who entered the ghostly realm after a disastrous dinner with his beloved fiancé.”

The atmosphere is so dark and cozy! We know this lounge is going to be extremely popular among passengers on the ship. It’s possible that the aquarium is a tribute to Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump, who had previously designed a ghostly aquarium full of the ghosts of dead fish.

We’re hoping we might get to experience some interactive features in this bar a la Trader Sam’s — but we’ll have to wait and see!

Stay tuned for our full tour!

Skipper Society

Okay, so Skipper Society is OBVIOUSLY dedicated to all things Jungle Cruise, but mostly to Jungle Cruise skippers, because let’s face it — the Jungle Cruise would be NOTHING without them. Expect fun cocktails and lots of puns and “refined nods” to this classic Disney ride.

We’re getting some serious “Skipper Canteen meets Jungle Cruise” vibes in here. The lounge decor is reminiscent of the Skipper Canteen at Magic Kingdom, but you’ll find LOTS of lush greenery and even awnings that look just like the boats on the Jungle Cruise!

This tracks with what Disney has previously shared about this space. The decor is inspired by the Jungle Cruise attractions at both Disney World and Disneyland. From the Disneyland ride, Imagineers gained inspiration from the “flora and fauna sprouting around Jungle Cruise,” which “gives guests the sense that they are sailing in waterways around the globe.” As a nod to this, the Skipper Society is full of plants that are the same foliage species as those in Disneyland.

It looks like in addition to drinks, Skipper Society will also feature some light bites and eats along the way!

This lounge looks SO fun and we hope the Cast Members who work here are full of punny dad jokes — just like the Skippers on the Jungle Cruise and at Skipper Canteen.

Disney said you should pay close attention to the travel stickers on the vintage-style luggage behind the bar — the stickers will represent various locations depicted inside the Jungle Cruise attraction, including that 8th wonder of the world, the Backside of Water! We’ll be checking them out soon.

Oh, and did we mention there will be live music at the Skipper Society?! We can’t wait to hear what kind of tunes will be played here.

Stay tuned for our FULL TOUR of the Skipper Society lounge!

Periscope Pub

We love that Disney is embracing 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and has turned it into a lounge experience. In this lounge, it will seem like you really are UNDER the sea as you sail around in a submarine while drinking craft brews, eating some light bites, and more. Let’s check out Periscope Pub!

The atmosphere is inspired by a submarine with “19th-century steampunk influences.” There will be “a mysterious window into the mythical depths of the uncharted oceans” spanning the full ceiling! As the name suggests, you’ll even find a periscope or two around here.

Every single thing in this pub is themed — down to the tap handles! We spy some tentacles, a diver, and a lot of alcohol behind the bar. Periscope Pub will be home to craft beers, cocktails, light bites, and more.

By the looks of it, there will be screens on the ceiling — designed to look like windows that make you feel like you’re really 20,000 leagues under the sea. Is that a tentacle we spy up there?!

Our friends over at Small World Vacations passed along some additional photos they snapped as they toured Periscope Pub, including a look at the menu.

It looks like there will be quite a few different beers, wines, even meads, and a few cocktails!

Stay tuned for our FULL tour of Periscope Pub soon!

WHEW! That’s it for now, but we’ll be exploring more of the Disney Treasure soon, so stay tuned to DFB for more!
