Closing in the next couple of days (beginning of Feb). Will be closed until probably August.

I had tried this on Google Chrome and it didn't work. I switched to Internet Explorer and it did work. Just posting this in case someone else has an issue with Google Chrome.

Worked fine with Chrome for me.

The faux "wet" duck foot prints in the CABANA1_CRUISE picture is a pretty good indicator that we're talking Disney and the Magic!!!

The decor and furniture are also almost identical to Cabanas. Not that it precludes another line copying DCL, I'd agree it's the Magic.

Looks like the page had been pulled... That's pretty telling isn't it....

Someone from DCL likely watches this site and seeing this thread, sent up one heck of an alarm. Then someone way high up in DCL contacted someone at the design firm and requested it be pulled to maintain the surprise.

Edited to remove insinuation company may have done it intentionally. It was likely a goof by someone behind the scenes.

There are screen shots posted of the images on the web already.

Yeah you probably shouldn't post images of something that your website says is "confidential".

I will be on that cruise October 20. This is my family's first Disney cruise so I won't know what to compare it to.

I will take pictures if you would like me to.

oops. I hope no one gets fired over it. I did like the designs, except for the flags on the ceiling of Parrot Cay. The white arches looked tropical and inviting. Since it won't have any more parrots, I wonder if they'll change the name of the MDR.

That's the problem with the internet, nothing ever goes away. If something gets out in the wild that shouldn't...there is no stopping it.

I can only imagine the phone calls going back forth between DCL and The Puccini Group.

They've also pulled the California Grill page. I'm betting somebody didn't know what they were doing or goofed when setting up those pages. They were probably supposed to be on the company intranet and not the internet.

I know they wanna advertise their work, but should only be using completed projects.

All the projects previously labelled as "confidential" on the projects menu page are now gone from the menu (they were there this morning), which leads me to believe it was a global coding mistake of some kind. That said, I'm sure someone's getting called into a meeting and quite possibly having a very, very bad day because of it.
