Disney Wish Staterooms

Learn everything you need to know about the staterooms on the Disney Wish to help you plan your Disney Cruise. We are your Disney Cruise Line experts and can help you find the perfect stateroom aboard the Disney Wish.

The 1,254 staterooms on the Disney Wish can be broken down into four types:
  • Inside
  • Oceanview
  • Verandah
  • Concierge
  • Each category is then broken down into even more selections, such as standard and deluxe rooms. It can seem overwhelming if you don't know what you're looking for, so we've broken it down for you below:

    Disney Wish Inside Staterooms

    Inside staterooms are located inside the Disney Wish ship and do not offer a window or balcony to the outside.

    You’ll be surrounded by artwork that pays homage to the bold stories of Disney films and enjoy space to spread out and unpack. Offering plenty of storage, a queen-size bed, pull-down bed, convertible couch and upscale amenities, your stateroom serves as a restful haven where you can take time to relax.

    When selecting an inside stateroom on the Disney Wish, you’ll be able to choose from either standard or deluxe options. Below are details on each and how they differ.

    Disney Wish Oceanview Deluxe Staterooms

    Only Deluxe Oceanview Staterooms can be found on the Disney Wish. These cabins are very similar to the Deluxe Inside Staterooms, except they offer a view outside of the ship. If you are worried about sea sickness, consider booking at least an oceanview stateroom.

    Look out to the sea in a stateroom decorated with artwork and touches celebrating the iconic elements of Disney movies. Featuring a queen-size bed, pull-down bed, sitting area with convertible couch, split bathrooms and upscale amenities, it’s the perfect place to recharge.
    • Sleeps up to four
    • 218 square feet
    • One large porthole window
    • Queen bed, single sleeper sofa and upper berth pull-down bed when sleeping four

    • Split bath, although accessible staterooms will have a full bath instead

Two, if you choose the second seating, your servers can rush dinner out for your kids and they have the option to go to the Oceaneers Club.
