All-Star Resorts
We recently asked our DFB readers which hotel in Disney World they’ll never stay at ever again, and we got HUNDREDS of responses.

A lot of people currently planning a Disney World vacation for next year are asking questions like “Should we get the Disney Dining Plan?” and “Is the Disney Dining Plan worth it?”
“I’M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!”
On the other hand, some are asking “CAN I get the Disney Dining Plan?” You see, there are certain factors of your Disney World vacation that make your group eligible or ineligible for purchasing the Disney Dining Plan… and that leads to one more specific question: Can you buy the Disney Dining Plan without a hotel reservation?

We’ve tried hundreds, probably THOUSANDS, of snacks in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
From cupcakes to Dole Whip floats to savory treats, we’ve had years of practice tasting some of the most delicious (AND some of the least delicious! 😂) things that Disney World has to offer.
