Disney Cruise Line on Wednesday unveiled spaces on the Disney Destiny, a ship with a heroes-and-villains theme coming in November 2025, inspired by Disney villains.
Disney said an evening at De Vil's piano lounge will be "a lavish affair emblematic of the bar's namesake," Cruella de Vil of "One Hundred and One Dalmatians."
"Cruella's infamous flair for style and wickedly bold attitude will be reflected in the Hollywood Regency-inspired aesthetic of the adult-exclusive lounge, where everything will be adorned in her signature color palette of red, black and white. Amid sultry tunes from the spotted piano, guests will wind down in style with trendy martinis, chic cocktails, and glamorous wines and bubblies," Disney said.
One side of De Vil's will be open to the Destiny's Grand Hall, enabling lounge guests to get a prime view of the ship's main gathering space.
Cask and Cannon will be a pub inspired by "Pirates of the Caribbean." Disney promises a menu of rare, specialty and vintage rums and a selection of "bootlegged" brews developed specially for the pub and served straight from the barrel.

The AquaMouse, Disney's signature water coaster at sea, will have a villain theme but a lighthearted one. The ride will have a quirky storyline with Disney Animation villains. Featuring an original soundtrack written for Disney Cruise Line by Emmy Award-winning composer Christopher Willis and lyricist Elyse Willis, the attraction will "exemplify the signature silliness of Mickey Mouse animated shorts," Disney said.
Mickey and Minnie will lead riders on a seemingly ominous trek to the peak of Villain Mountain. When faced with some of the most fearsome villains of Disney Animation lore, the duo will employ a silly song -- and a bit of pixie dust -- to transform each chilling encounter into a wacky surprise.
Disney said Queen of Hearts ("Alice in Wonderland"), Scar ("The Lion King"), Chernabog ("Fantasia") and others will "find themselves in unconventionally hilarious situations."
Throughout the ship, guests will encounter Disney heels and mischief makers in shows, meet-and-greets and special appearances. They include Maleficent, Hades, Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook, Mr. Smee Oogie Boogie, Captain Jack Sparrow, Bruno and Loki.
Disney revealed on July 30 that the Destiny will sail from Fort Lauderdale and feature a restaurant themed to "The Lion King."
