Planning a Disney Cruise in 2026? You are likely visiting one (or both!) of Disney’s private island destinations in the Bahamas. In this video, we break down the major differences between the fan-favorite Castaway Cay and the stunning new Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point on the island of Eleuthera. From the world-class BBQ lunches to the adult-exclusive escapes at Serenity Bay, we explain exactly what is included in your cruise fare and what is worth the extra cost. We also dive into the massive 2026 update: Online Cabana Reservations! And why the new Mickey & Minnie Cove cabanas at Castaway Cay are a total game-changer. Whether you’re looking for the "Disney Bubble" of Castaway or the rich Bahamian culture and Junkanoo spirit of Lookout Cay, this guide helps you choose the perfect island for your next vacation!
