Editorial Summary

The creators provide a detailed review of their second sailing on the Disney Wish, a four-night Bahamian itinerary in May 2024. They compare this experience to their inaugural sailing in 2022, noting significant improvements in guest services and the removal of frustrating virtual queues. The review covers various aspects of the cruise, including embarkation, dining, and entertainment. The creators highlight the unique rotational dining system, where service teams move with guests between themed restaurants like Arendelle and the World of Marvel. They also discuss the buffet, room service, and specialty dining options. While praising the service and character interactions, they express disappointment with the quality of the Broadway-style shows during this specific sailing. A significant portion of the critique focuses on the ship's layout, noting that the decentralized adult-only areas make it difficult to escape children during late-night hours compared to legacy Disney ships. Ultimately, they conclude that while the Disney Wish is a beautiful, state-of-the-art vessel that offers a fantastic experience, they prefer the layout of older ships for adult-oriented relaxation.
