Lookout Cay At Lighthouse Point Looks Pretty Bad | Disney Cruiseline 

I would eat on the ship,the flies are disgusting,put me straight off when I watched the video, even more so if I was there in person.Flies at the food station are a sure recipe for sickness on the ship.Your comments about the food are totally correct.

wow that fly situation is out of control.

I think most that had positive videos about the island were travel agents, and they didn’t wanna ruin their business but the reality is this island shouldn’t have opened up yet and it has a lot of work to do

This reminds me of my first impression of the entrance of California Adventure before they re-did the whole park. And as for that performance, Disney put the “Junk” in Junkanoo.

*update* Elderly got DENIED assistance back to the ship from Lookout Cay (reported by a guest that attended #LookoutCay AFTER the preview cruise). May not be a good time to visit the island if you have mobility issues until Disney gets their shit together. If you are someone who has a cruise to this island booked already or will be booking you are in a great position because you now have information so that you can plan accordingly. if it was me, and these issues were still present during your cruise, I would have a nice meal either at the buffet or in one of the restaurants on the ship before heading out and make it a point to get to the beach and be in the beautiful ocean the whole time and it will be amazing. Don’t forget, being on a Disney cruise ship is still an unbelievable and wonderful feeling and experience. And for those that were holding off on booking the Disney Treasure or other cruise ships in the Disney fleet that are not porting at Lookout Cay, now you don’t have to fear missing out on this island as it is not the best destination in Disney’s island options, Castaway is still king!

It feels like DCL focused too much on "culture" and "the environment" and forgot that their customers are paying thousands of dollars (and more than other cruise lines!)...and that their guests want a relaxing and pampering island experience. - poster from DISboards who took the words out of my mouth

What gets me is how do you have that walkway with no shade haven’t learned anything from the Bahamas. They added shade but most of all I don’t have benches for that walk ..

I totally agree on many of your points. The buildings look so basic and cheap they look like they used standard building materials your would find at Home Depot like your standard white windows. All of the furniture such as beach chairs, umbrellas, eating area, kids wagons and strollers all look like what you can find on Amazon or Walmart with no thought involved. They didn't even try to brand anything. If I'm going to spend $$$$ to visit a tropical island I want it to feel and see unique things and not something I can find back at home.

Sounds like a dream island for entomologists.

Anything Disney touches now is just garbage,, people need to figure that out

Did the very minimum.

Were you on the cruise? I heard from others it good, yeah some issues, but DCL said not everything is be available and things will be fixed

We are on the June 19th sailing going to Lookout Cay and the fly issue is a pretty major issue. The walk from the ship won’t be too bad, but the walk back will be rough. I’m curious to see how the next few stops go and see if anything improves before we sail!

The food is COVERED in flies. It’s not even edible. Disney has a lot of work to do to make this a place worth going. That walk from the pier and the lack of shade is probably a huge no for a lot of people. And no tram for that walk! Yes there is one on the island but they need something for that pier. That’s the longest pier I’ve ever seen. Princess Cay through Carnival had the same food and the same issues with flies at their buffets too.

Currently have a cruise booked for the only time the Wish will be going to Lookout Cay in January 2025. Island looks beautiful but the long walk (not for me but for other families) and the flies look concering. I do hope they fix this soon. Thanks for the video! :)

I am booked for both islands next year…Hope it improves! I am disappointed in the lack of shade, trams, seating.

Junk-anoo. It's in the name dude.

I’m sorry but the idea of putting Hawaiian/pacific cultures there just because it’s island and ocean culture is ridiculous. Disney is trying to respect and collaborate with the Bahamian culture and regardless of how well that’s done, the pacific cultures are from the completely opposite side of the world to the Caribbean ones.

Wow I can’t believe some of these comments. I just got off the inaugural sailing and I think most people agree with everything in this video. The beach is beautiful. The water is clear. The sand are perfect but there’s so much they need to improve on. I didn’t hear anybody on the ship after we got back say that it was perfect and that they enjoyed it. There was a lot of negativity. There are things that will fix and the island will be great ONE DAY!!! But for most it was a nightmare. at least half of the ship didn’t even get off on the second day. There was an outbreak of Norovirus. I myself was miserable the last two days on the ship. I believe it was from the flies. Again the issues that I saw, including the very plain desert like views will be eventually updated. However, with all of that said, I agree with pretty much every sentiment in this video !!!!!! 😢

People are going to get sick because who knows “where the flies have been before they land on the food” I personally wouldn’t eat food with flies. Also snorkelling with zero Disney things to look at is disappointing - aside from the merchandise WHERE IS DISNEY? Where is the theming? Listen I am ALL for embracing another culture BUT people are paying for a DISNEY CRUISE - this island looks like it could be for any cruise line

I think hating on the island's culture is xenophobic.

I said the same thing I first watched all of the videos castaway kay here here I come

Ugghhh…I am so bummed! We are 1st time cruisers and thought our young kiddo would love this, but these videos look terrible! We are going in just a couple of weeks and I’m seriously annoyed at how boring this looks. The food looks terrible, and the smoothie place closes at 3:00.

I get the complaints about the flies and the walk, but Lookout was always planned with the idea that the Bahamian culture would be the spotlight. Its not Disney's fault you dont find their particular cultural songs, dancing, and festive clothing alluring 😂.

I’m surprised Disney Prices wouldn’t make it easier for you to book another cruise line.

Fire everyone at Disney 😂😂. I like the Junkanoo theme, show just needs to be choreographed better. Also, it’s NOT Hawaii it can’t have “tiki torches”, or be “Moana” or “Frozen” themed. 😂🙄

Thanks for an honest review! We are heading there on our 10 day sailing next month and now nervous and shocked by what I’ve seen in all the previews so far! I think for me the biggest highlight is that beautiful beach! I’ve never been to one that beautiful yet! I already miss the Disney touch. No sebastian at the splash pads, only Mickey ears at the front. The only thing Disney are the characters. I’m not sure how to feel about this yet.

I don't get what Disney was thinking...no one is interested in booking this cruise to experience Bahamian culture. It is fine and all, but you book for Disney culture and fun. Too much give to the culture of the island instead of the culture of the ship. There should be a happy medium.

I just got of the cruise ship this morning...the flies are 99% gone they resolved the issue with a chemical...the walk is long...but unless you are lard butt it's only half mile and not that bad

Somebody commenting on something they haven't done is really embarrassing.

It looks HORRIBLE, because IT IS!!
