Ready to set sail into an exciting new Disney destination? We’re thrilled to bring you an exclusive sneak peek at everything you can expect on Disney Cruise Line’s newest private island, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point! Nestled on the beautiful Bahamian island of Eleuthera, Lookout Cay is about to become a must-visit spot for Disney Cruise enthusiasts, and we’ve got all the delicious details straight from our team’s visit.
Arriving at Lookout Cay is like stepping into a Bahamian paradise. The island boasts stunning white sands, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and captivating rocky outcroppings. Disney has truly embraced the local culture here, with vibrant elements of Bahamian customs, including a lively Junkanoo parade, adding to the unique charm of the destination.
Foodies, get ready! Our team explored several eateries across Lookout Cay. With options such as Serenity Bay BBQ and True True Too BBQ, there’s no shortage of delicious bites. Serenity Bay, catering to adults, features a broader menu, while True True Too offers a more streamlined selection. Though both spots had their high points, like the refreshingly tasty pineapple black bean salad, there were some hiccups with service and persistent flies. But don’t worry, we expect Disney will iron out these kinks as cast members settle into the new locale.
While Lookout Cay’s bars offered a variety of drinks, our team found them quite similar to one another — each with the same menu and layout. In comparison to Disney’s other private island, Castaway Cay, it seems Lookout Cay’s bars didn’t have that “standout” spot. However, with so many refreshment stations, you’ll always have easy access to a cool drink as you soak up the sun.
In summary, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point stands out for its natural beauty and cultural integration. It’s an enjoyable visit, especially for frequent Disney cruisers looking for something fresh. However, our team felt it might not yet be a destination to plan a trip around solely on its own merit. We’re sure that with time, this island will become a seamless addition to Disney’s spectacular lineup of experiences.
