New Photos Revealed of Disney’s Private Island - Lighthouse Point
Today we have a sneak peek at Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, Disney Cruise Line’s newest private retreat in the Bahamas.
These new images give us a better look at how Lighthouse Point is shaping up, including a new look at the Bahamian-inspired art and architecture.
Disney Imagineers are great at incorporating art and architecture from the local community into their designs. This is one of the reasons Aulani in Hawaii has been so successful. Not just for tourists, but for getting the locals to welcome a major resort destination into their community.
Nestled along the sand dunes of Serenity Bay, the vibrantly colored architecture of the Serenity Bay Cabanas matches the Mabrika Cove Cabanas, which sit across Disney Lookout Cay at the arrival point of the destination.
Steps away from Serenity Bay BBQ and the area’s beach bar, these cabanas will be available for rent to offer a retreat for adults to take in Eleuthera’s dunes and ocean views.
Art from talented, local Bahamian artists will take shape throughout all of the spaces at the destination, including intricate wood carvings inspired by artist Andret John and colorful murals by painter Dorman Stubbs, as seen here.
True-True Too BBQ is a beautiful example of architecture designed to look like oversized seashells scattered across the shores of Disney Lookout Cay.
These uniquely designed dining pavilions will offer shade from your day of adventures on the Nature Trail or the beach.
And now we know Lighthouse Point will have a nature trail!
I love the style of these buildings and they certainly look hurricane-proof!
Lighthouse Point is expected to open this summer.
