  • Disney Cruise Line's sixth ship, Disney Treasure, set sail in late 2024.
  • Its most luxurious Tomorrow Tower Suite has a private elevator, four bedrooms, and a spiral staircase.
  • The suite starts at about $57,440 for a family of four.

If you're a Disney cruise fan with a genie, consider using one of your three wishes on a stay in Disney Treasure's Tomorrow Tower Suite.

Otherwise, expect to pay more than $57,000 for the luxury marine penthouse.

Disney Cruise Line's newest ship, Disney Treasure, set sail in December 2024, marking the sixth vessel to join the entertainment powerhouse's fleet. Don't expect the company to slow down β€” its popular cruise arm plans to double its fleet over the next six years.

It's no wonder fans of the brand have been indulging in its floating theme parks. Treasure is filled with amenities referencing Disney films and rides.

If you fondly remember the Jungle Cruise ride, grab a drink at the themed Skipper Society lounge. If you're a "Zootopia" fan, grab an ice-cream cone from Jumbeaux's Sweets.

If you love Walt Disney World's Epcot, consider booking Disney Treasure's Tomorrow Tower Suite.

The two-story suite's unconventional art, metal accents, and glittering stained glass are callbacks to Epcot. It's also about 1,970 square feet, making it Disney Treasure's largest and most luxurious cabin.

With luxury comes a hefty price tag.

The ship is spending its inaugural year operating weeklong Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral, Florida.

The suite starts at about $57,440 for a family of four (about $22,625 per adult and $5,660 per child), as per a sailing in late November.

To compare, inside cabins on the same voyage start at $7,330.

The price for the high-end Tomorrow Tower is relatively steep. Yet, it's already been booked for several of Disney Treasure's coming voyages.

The luxe accommodation is perched in the ship's funnel β€” off of a private elevator, no less.

The front door opens to a cozy living space with a lounge, dining table, and bar, all bathed in light from the adjacent two-story floor-to-ceiling window that overlooks the ship's top deck.

Use the motorized sheer or blackout curtains for more privacy. Or, enjoy the sun with a pick-me-up from the coffee maker or a soda from the stocked bar.

Keep a chilled bottle in the bar's wine cooler and snacks in the pantry's refrigerator.

No need to hand-clean any post-grazing dishes β€” the expansive pantry also has a dishwasher.

Take the spiral staircase to the upstairs bedrooms.

The penthouse can sleep up to eight people with its two primary bedrooms (both with walk-in closets), a children's room with bunk beds, and a library with a queen mattress.

Expect a sumptuous slumber courtesy of the down duvets, 1,000-thread-count Frette cotton linens, and pillows of your choice, courtesy of the "pillow menu."

The living room and bedrooms all have their own TVs and bathrooms.

The primary bedrooms' restrooms are especially luxurious, outfitted with dual sinks, bathtubs, and rain showers.

No need to share β€” visitors can use the downstairs guest bathroom.

Guests also receive perks exclusive to those vacationing in the ship's Concierge-level cabins.

Similar to the Tomorrow Tower Suite, several of Royal Caribbean's new mega-ships have a distinctive two-story family suite with amenities like a slide, air hockey table, and butler-like Royal Genie.

The aptly named Ultimate Family Townhouse on the cruise line's one-year-old Icon of the Seas had been reserved for most of 2024 β€” for an average cost of $100,000 a week.
