Get ready to make a splash because this free hotel perk just got two times better!
Grab your swimsuit, goggles, and towels — we’re heading to Disney World’s water parks.
From May 21st to September 7th, both Disney World waterparks — Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach — will be open for the first time since 2019. Why does this matter for hotel guests? All Disney World Resort guests get free water park admission on their arrival day in 2025.
You heard that right! On the day of their check-in, each registered member of the hotel room gets free access to either of the water parks.
Blizzard Beach, which is open right now, will be closed from May 1st to May 20th, but then Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon will both be open and ready for guests.
The Blizzard Beach park is best for little ones and guests looking for more thrilling rides.
Typhoon Lagoon is best for adults who want a more relaxed experience, but both parks can be great for families, depending on their interests. With this perk, why not go to both and see which one you like the best?
We love trying food at the water parks, too! Who would have thought a Disney World water park would have great food offerings like Elota Nachos and all the churro desserts you could ever want?
With free park admission, it’s hard to pass up on this deal. You can head to the water parks in the morning, catch dinner at Disney Springs, and then go to your hotel and rest before your big day in the Magic Kingdom.
