food IS a theme park
Another closure has hit Disneyland Resort, but it may not be one you were expecting.
Broken Spell Lounge
Inside the Disneyland Hotel, you’ll find a spot that has seen many different versions of lounges over the years. Currently, you’ll find the Broken Spell Lounge here, which opened back in late 2025. However, if you were hoping to stop by on your upcoming trip, that just got much harder.
Been dreaming of a Disney wedding? Well, now’s your chance to get a free showcase of what they’re like!
Wedding Pavilion
A wedding in a Disney destination is a big wish for many Disney Adults, but there are so many factors to consider — price, location, event size, and more.

A new Disney hotel perk celebrating the release of Toy Story 5 is about to begin!
Disneyland Hotel
There are plenty of ways to get your Toy Story fix around the Disney parks and resorts, from permanent attractions like Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios to limited-edition souvenirs and snacks themed after our favorite characters. And tomorrow, a NEW Disney hotel perk is officially launching to celebrate the recent release of Toy Story 5!
The newest film in the Toy Story franchise, Toy Story 5, released in theaters on June 19th, and Disney is celebrating in big ways!

The film is a big reason you can celebrate Cool KIDS’ SUMMER in Disney World with the Jessie’s Roundup in Magic Kingdom, as well as check out a special Toy Story 5 photo op in Disney California Adventure, but there’s way more where that came from. If you’re heading to Disneyland Resort soon and staying on property, there’s a new perk coming to the hotel pools you won’t want to miss!
Is there any bar or lounge more iconic than Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at Disneyland Hotel? We think not! This bar is known for its fun drinks, food, and shenanigans, and it’s always a treat when we get to see the volcano effect happen when someone orders a special drink.
New food alert!
Well, we recently returned to Trader Sam’s after we got word that the bar was celebrating its 15th anniversary with some new food. So we had to check it out.
Picking the right hotel for a Disneyland vacation is a deceptively tough task…
Disneyland Hotel
When you’re planning your very first Disneyland vacation, booking a hotel feels like one of the easiest decisions on the list. You see a Disney-owned hotel, you assume it’s the best option, you check out the theming and prices to decide between the hotels, and boom — reservation complete. But a LOT of Disneyland first-timers end up realizing way too late that they booked the wrong hotel for the kind of trip they actually wanted.
We’ve got some fantastic news for the Disneyland Resort fans out there, especially if you love stopping by the Disneyland Hotel to see what’s happening over at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar.
Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar
Indoor dining at this location is currently closed for refurbishment (set to last through Spring 2026, but the closure continues), but dining outside is still available, however, and that means you can experience these new eats at the restaurant when they release on May 25th!
We love staying at the Disneyland Hotel when we visit Disneyland. Where else can you walk to Disneyland, grab a drink at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar, and eat dinner with Goofy at Goofy’s Kitchen?

Come with us to Disneyland Paris!
Disneyland Hôtel
We were recently invited by Disney to check out the newly named Disney Adventure World and its World of Frozen expansion! During our stay, we stayed at the Disneyland Hôtel, which provides a “5-star royal residence at the entrance to Disneyland Park” with elegant theming and that famous Disney theming. Our stay was extra special thanks to the Frozen theming of our room!
