Construction is set to begin this year on Lighthouse Point, with the 751-acre resort on the island of Eleuthera expected to open in late 2022 or early 2023. According to the Orlando Sentinel, the total cost of opening the resort including the purchase of the land and construction could fall between $250 million to $400 million.

 

 It will have bungalow-style suites, restaurants and entertainment venues, plenty of greenery, and lots of white sand beaches to play or relax on,and they will be working with painters, sculptors, writers, storytellers, musicians, weavers, and artists of every kind, to create a completely unique experience that is rooted in Bahamian culture and imbued with Disney magic."

 

 

One of the key people behind the design of the resort is Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde. He previously helped design the Animal Kingdom park at Disney World and a Disney resort in Hawaii called Aulani, and he will play a large role in the resort's design, too.
