Banana Cabana at Caribbean Beach Resort
And, we’ve got some new merchandise to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
While we’ve been scurrying around Disney World the last few days to discover all of the new 70th-anniversary Cinderella treats (like the Greedy Gus Gus Cupcake we spotted earlier), we’re not sure if this next one is the miracle we’ve been dreaming of!
Cinderella Cheesecake
Don’t get us wrong — we’re totally aglow with how this Cinderella Cheesecake looks, buuut things started to get weird once we sliced into it!
Here at DFB, we’re lovers of sweet treats, especially cupcakes.
Centertown Market
And that’s why we’re making it our mission to try EVERY cupcake that Disney has to offer. So, today we’re checking out the Mickey and Minnie Cupcake duo at Caribbean Beach Resort’s Centertown Market.
The Disney Skyliner is a new mode of transportation offered to help guests get around Walt Disney World resort. If you’re staying at one of the four Disney resorts on the Skyliner, you can now get to Hollywood Studios or Epcot in a matter of minutes by hopping on the gondola line.

While up until this point, the other options for free transportation at Disney World have stayed the same for the resorts on the Skyliner line, it looks like that has now changed!
The restaurants at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort have undergone many wonderful changes in the past year. We know navigating these changes can be confusing — but don’t worry, beach happy, the DFB Team is here to review it all for you!

Our last visit to Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort included drinks and appetizers at Banana Cabana, lunch at Sebastian’s Bistro, and dinner at Centertown Market.

We have spotted a new cupcake at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort and this one will surely “make a splash” with mermaid fans!

The Disney Skyliner gondola system is brand, spanking new, and with that newness comes some logical questions and needs. What’s it like to ride the Skyliner? Can I bring my stroller on board? What happens if I get stuck twenty feet over Hourglass Lake (oh wait…that already happened!)? Check out our Skyliner FAQs!

But what we need — what we really need — is a Skyliner Food Tour! [Read more…]
There are SO. MANY. HOTELS. in Disney World! Well over 20 that are owned and operated by Disney themselves, and several that are run by third parties; and there are even some swanky ones like the Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton, and the Waldorf Astoria!
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
And while some of these resorts are selling out on the regular, there’s been one that’s been a little neglected — at least anecdotally — by guests for the past few years. But guess what! This “forgotten resort” just became one of the hottest places to stay on Disney property…and we’re going to tell you why!
Happy National Coffee Day everybody!
Mickey Mouse Coffee!
If you’re lucky enough to be at Disney World today and looking for a cup of the good stuff, we’ve spotted a deal that you won’t want to pass up!

But as with anything built for the Disney Parks, Skyliner is not without controversy or questions. So DFB is sailing into action to answer all of YOUR questions. Read on, and be sure to reach out in the comments if you’ve got a question that we didn’t answer about the Skyliner.
