The fabulously over-the-top villain from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ One Hundred and One Dalmatians — and the acclaimed 2021 live-action film — inspires De Vil’s, a one-of-a-kind, adult-exclusive piano lounge onboard the Disney Destiny. Black, White, and Red All Over Cruella’s infamous flair for style and wickedly bold attitude are reflected in the bar’s Hollywood Regency-inspired aesthetic, where everything is adorned in her signature color palette of red, black, and white. There is even a glowing, fiber-optic Cruella that appears and disappears in the wall behind an eye-catching spotted piano. And with one side of the lounge open to the Grand Hall, you can sit back with a drink and a prime view of the ship’s premier gathering space. Drama, Darling — Courtesy of Cruella Encounters with the legend herself are not uncommon at De Vil’s. Cruella graces patrons of her piano lounge with her larger-than-life presence during two brand-new entertainment experiences. The first, just outside De Vils in the Grand Hall, is an opportunity for fashion-forward cruisers to put their personal style to the test on Cruella’s very own wretched runway, where the reigning rogue en vogue provides live commentary — whether she’s fawning over an absolutely exquisite fashion choice or offering dreadfully honest advice. And when she hears the (horribly inaccurate) “Cruella de Vil” song playing on board, Cruella may recruit you for a bit of treble-making to create a more flattering musical tribute to her marvelousness. Something Sinister to Sip On An evening at De Vil’s is anything but “miserable, darling.” You can unwind in style with an avant-garde selection of designer drinks that complement Cruella’s glamorous legacy. Menu highlights include the Fashionista, which combines freeze-dried strawberry and banana-infused Patrón Añejo Cristalino Tequila with banana liqueur, agave nectar, and fresh lime juice and the Fearless Sir Galahad, a zero-proof cocktail with Free Spirits Non-alcoholic Bourbon, bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup, Angostura bitters, and aromatic smoke.
