WATCH: Take a Behind-the-Scenes Tour of Cotino’s Artisan Club
A new chapter in Disney history is unfolding in California, where Cotino, a Storyliving by Disney community, is preparing to open its doors.
Drawing inspiration from the Coachella Valley’s rich history and diverse landscape, Cotino has been master-planned by Disney, designed by Walt Disney Imagineering, and will be staffed by Disney Cast Members. In essence, residents will have the opportunity to live immersed in Disney magic.

With the first residents of Cotino preparing to move in, we are learning more about what Disney has in store for the community.
Earlier this week, we brought you updates on the Parr House and the Cotino Bay Beach, Dining & Shops.
New restaurant Elevare will be among the first tenants at Cotino Bay Beach, Dining and Shops when it opens in fall 2026.
Now, I want to turn your attention to another facet of the community.
Introducing the Artisan Club
Today Disney enlisted Bret Iwan, the voice of Mickey Mouse, to present a behind-the-scenes look at Cotino’s Artisan Club.
Through voluntary membership, residents of Cotino can join the resident-exclusive club located on the shores of Cotino Bay.

Amenities
Additionally, the Artisan Club provides members with amenities that “celebrate creativity.”
