Back in late June, Josh D'Amaro was asked what will be done with the property and he said, "No hints, but something will happen with it." I guess we'll find out down the road but it sounded like they were taking the loss on it.At DLR, there are three entrances to Galaxy's Edge/Batuu. But at DHS there are only two..... with a third access point coming directly from Starcruiser (I think via an underground shuttle). There hasn't been any announcement made what will become of that property. It's across Cast Member parking; it's not a huge footprint, but it's physically about a quarter mile 'over the berm'. So I'm not sure if they have any plans for it, aside from writing it all off.
It will make for a nice auction, though, if you live in the Orlando area.
(I saw one suggestion that they should turn it into a regular old SW-themed hotel. That's a nice idea, but would probably be less worthwhile than simply eating the loss.)

The Star Wars-themed hotel would be a terrific idea if they could do it on a larger scale. Honestly, back when all of this was initially unveiled in 2017 and before it's exact format was confirmed, I thought it would be more along the lines of a standard resort. I would love to know if they ever looked into that as a possibility. I also wonder if they're pulling the things Starcruiser did well and building on the themed "standard resort" idea.
To that end, I've spent some time the last couple of weeks watching some of the previous "voyage" vlogs on YouTube, and it's honestly a shame they couldn't find a way to make it all work at a cost-effective level for more people. The cast members were incredible. The design work that went into the place was really something, and it all combined to make for what many have said was the best Disney customer experience they ever had.
In some ways, it's still crazy to me that they decided barely a year after it opened to pull the plug. However, I don't know that it was ever sustainable. I think if they could have afforded to cut the price without affecting the experience, they would have done so. They either really bet big on the idea that Star Wars fans/families would pay the premium cost for this & they horribly misread their audience, or this was always doomed to a relatively quick fate.
