It spans nearly 2,000 square feet across 2 levels within the funnel, Disney said. Up to eight people can stay in it.
It and the other Concierge-level accommodations onboard the Treasure have an exclusive lounge that isn’t available to other guests. The ship has 53 Concierge staterooms and 23 suites.
The Treasure will follow the tradition of Disney’s other ships and have guests rotate among a few restaurants for dinner during their cruise, Disney said.
One of those restaurants, the new Plaza de Coco, draws heavily from the 2017 animated movie “Coco” with an ofrenda and other themed-decor. Performers will put on two different shows at the center of the restaurant when guests dine there.

At the Skipper Society lounge, aspects like the stage wall and canopied ceiling reference animals and foliage Disney fans see on the Jungle Cruise ride. Guests will also see some architectural elements reminiscent of Disney World’s Jungle Skipper Canteen, a Disney Imagineer told FOX Business.

The Walt Disney Theater makes a reappearance on the newest ship. It will host the “Disney The Tale of Moana,” a new, elaborate stage production based on the popular animated film that brought in $643.3 million worldwide.
The Treasure increases Disney’s number of cruise liners to six. Its arrival comes as the entertainment giant has been working to grow its fleet to 13 by 2031 and continue to capitalize on demand for cruises.
DISNEY TO LAUNCH 9TH CRUISE SHIP TO REACH ‘SOME OF OUR BIGGEST FANS’
A report released in April by Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) projected some 34.7 million people will take cruises over the course of 2024, a figure that would mark an over 9% increase from the 31.7 million seen last year.
And the number of passengers that cruise lines will see in the coming years will continue to increase, the CLIA predicted. The industry association said a whopping 39.7 million people could cruise in 2027.
In early June, J.P. Morgan Research said cruises have been seeing increased popularity.
“Looking ahead, we see the industry growing revenues by high-single digits over the next five years, capturing ~3.8% of the global vacation market by 2028,” J.P. Morgan’s Matt Boss said.
It said the vacation sector was worth $1.9 trillion.
