We love to ask questions on our Disney Food Blog Facebook page so we can hear from the real stars of the show — you!
When Disney announces new projects and changes, it usually comes with a mix of opinions, no matter what the project is, and this is especially true when it comes to resort renovations and builds.
There is A LOT of construction going on at Disney World. Construction walls are up by Astro Orbiter, a portion of DinoLand is now closed as work begins on Pueblo Esperanza, and Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy is closed and blocked off as Disney prepares to debut Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After.
And that is only the tip of the iceberg! There is even more construction going on at the parks, as well as numerous hotels at Disney World. You will even spot construction going on for a brand-new Disney World hotel.
There is always something changing in Disney World. Whether it be the closure of attractions such as Big Thunder Mountain Railroad or the opening of the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, it is never a dull day at Disney World.
Disney makes lots of announcements and there is all sorts of news that comes out of the parks and hotels daily. Well, we wanted to share what we think is the best Disney World hotel news we have seen all month!
Disney giveth and Disney taketh away. And sometimes, Disney giveth again.
Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge is the newest hotel being built near Magic Kingdom, and it’s been a long time coming. Originally, Disney announced a hotel called Reflections: A Lakeside Lodge for this space — and then never talked about it again. But, Lakeshore Lodge is the new hotness that will be opening at Disney World in 2027 and we’ve got a new aerial look at the progress!

If you’ve been a Disney World fan for all of about five minutes, you probably know that the parks are constantly changing.
Not only that, but change can happen a lot more quickly than you might think. In the past five years, we’ve seen new attractions, restaurants, skip-the-line services, price increases, and more. With so much change happening in such a short period, it’s only a matter of time before we might look at Disney World and hardly even recognize it. We might not be able to see the future, but we can take a look at what the next five years look like for Disney World!
