Want to ramp up the cost of your Disney World vacation? There are plenty of pricey experiences you can add to your trip!
Cinderella Castle
From stays at Deluxe Resorts to meals at signature restaurants, Disney offers quite a few luxury experiences. But if you’re heading to Disney World for the new year, then there’s one incredibly expensive addition you might want to know about!
It’s that time of year again, friends — the holidays are here!
Hollywood Studios
That means there are tons of decorations to admire at all the parks, holiday snacks and merchandise have arrived, and holiday parties are starting. But it also means that one of our favorite projects returns — the Contemporary Resort Gingerbread Display is now OPEN for guests to admire and buy treats!
The Disney World gingerbread displays are an iconic part of the holiday celebration at the resort.
2023 Grand Floridian Gingerbread House
All around the property at several hotels, you can find life-sized gingerbread displays. From the most iconic display– the gingerbread house at Disney’s Grand Floridian –to the baby giraffe and baby zebra at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, there’s so much to see! These displays add a warm, cozy, Christmas ambiance to each location they’re in. This year, an all-new gingerbread display will be joining the group and construction has started!
Next year is going to start off on a pretty stellar note in Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
Park pass reservations are going away for most guests, park hopping restrictions are being lifted, and the Disney Dining Plan is making its return! We can’t wait for what’s in store, but in the meantime, we’re preparing for another huge day for Disney World.
Do you enjoy seeing works of edible art?
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
If you do, you’ll certainly want to visit Disney World during the holiday season. Why? That’s when many of Disney World’s resorts set up their gingerbread houses, including a giant one that goes up every year at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, which recently opened. Now, ANOTHER gingerbread house has opened in Disney World, so let’s go check it out!
There are few things in this world that we love more than cheese.
Plastic Cheese
Since we spend a lot of time in Disney World dining at various restaurants, we’ve tried a variety of cheese-inspired dishes, from charcuterie boards to pasta to cheese soup. But if you know about our obsession with plastic cheese, then you know that we’re big fans of cheese made for dipping. And the king of all dipping cheeses? That’s easy — queso!
Do you smell that? It smells a bit sweet and spicy. There are blends of ginger, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and brown sugar. It has our mouths watering, but what could it be?
IT’S OPEN.
It’s gingerbread! We can smell that delicious cozy scent all through Disney’s Grand Floridian because the beautiful, iconic gingerbread house is officially complete and open! Come with us to check it out.
