I think, CC is supposed to be a contemporary take on the West. Right?

I absolutely prefer the overly themed resorts, but I understand why some aren't. I was originally defending the color pallete. I think Wilderness Lodge is amazing in it's theming and execution. If it looked like a normal hotel with a few bear paintings, it wouldn't have the same impact. But...

Take it back :p

Barely cheaper. And we don't know when.

To me, Black Panther is not iconic enough for that position. But, what do I know.

There could be a need to offer both. Some, want clean and modern, others want a tiki hut. Disney is offering two sides of the Polynesian coin. It is like in DL Paris having a Cowboy/Western hotel and a modern City hotel. Both are American, one is Americana.

Then you don't want a modern hotel. The white/beige/wood represents sand and driftwood, etc. Polynesian Village offers an idealized vision of what Polynesia was. Perhaps the DVC resort will use enough lush vegetation and flowers to transport you to Polynesia of 2024.

I am correct that this ship will have all of the same issues as the Treasure and Wish, in terms of layout, etc? I've never been on this Wish class, but I recall people felt it was compartmentalized?

I don't mind it. Hopefully the rest of the hull is in a traditional art-deco style.

Yes, but if Tropical Americas is too much of a mouthful, just say or type Tropics; when referring to this land in DAK.

I understand that. I never said it was. I was providing an example of a high-end hotel, in a colorful locale, that as far back as 2013 also used white/beige/wood.

Just call it Tropics.

Which was?

I get it, people want a stereotype, kitsch, romanticism (not necessarily bad, but not necessarily current). White/Beige/Woods is the trend in high-end interior design. Hell, I remember staying at the Westin in Grand Cayman in 2013 and the decor was white, beige, wood and pops of teal pillows.

I was showing color schemes of a high end Polynesian hotel in 2024.

None of my examples were Hawaiian. Here is the Halekulani (Waikiki Beach, Honolulu, Hawaii), which is one of the best hotels in Honolulu. Ranked #1 on TripAdvisor. It was ranked #2 in the world by NY Times (or some newspaper) back in the 1990s when I went as a kid. Notice, the white, beige and...

Please take Chevy with it.

That's what modern Polynesian resorts look like. White, beige and natural woods. Conrad Bora Bora https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/pptbnci-conrad-bora-bora-nui/ Hilton Tahiti https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/ppthihh-hilton-hotel-tahiti/ Sofitel Fiji https://www.sofitel-fiji.com/

You won't. They are more for having a cocktail after dinner while you wind-down from a fun day. Or, they offer day-time events for days-at-sea.

I would hope for Greek fusion...
