food IS a theme park
With so many Disney World Resorts to choose from, it’s hard to know which ones are the best for you and your family that’s why DFB is here to help you stay up to date!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
We have a lot of opinions on resorts since we’ve stayed at them all and keep track of new updates and changes to make sure they’re as great as we remember. There are three resorts right now that people are avoiding until the dust settles — literally.
We know Disney World was essentially made for families, but that doesn’t mean you have to be around kids during your entire vacation.
Coronado Springs
While a child-free Disney World trip seems like an oxymoron, it definitely happens more than you think. Disney Adults flock to the most popular theme park resort in the world from far and wide. Vacations, honeymoons, anniversaries, and more reasons compel plenty of adults to consider stays at Disney World. If you fall into this category and want to know some of the best hotels that cater more to adults, you’ve certainly come to the right place!
There’s a lot of construction happening around Disney World. The parks are busy adding new lands and expansions, as well as updating rides. But Disney World hotels have also been busy getting some updates.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Recently, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa began to get some updates to its lobby, and construction is well underway for that project. However, Disney has filed a permit suggesting that even more work is coming to the hotel, this time at its entrance.
You know what we love to do? We love to eat! It makes sense, being that “Food” is our middle name. We also love checking out new Disney World dining spots, as well as revisiting old favorites (and y’all, the list of our favorites is long).
Mickey waffle with fried chicken? Yes, please!
Speaking of revisiting old faves, the Grand Floridian Cafe at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is often underrated, but we just popped in to have some brunch there because it’s been a hot minute since we had our beloved Buttermilk-fried Chicken and Waffle.
Disney World’s upcoming hotel addition might change many guests’ Monorail Crawl!
Walt Disney World Monorail
The Walt Disney World Monorail has been a key part of the “Most Magical Place on Earth” since day one, when it opened as the resort’s initial main transportation apparatus. The Monorail initially connected the Magic Kingdom with the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC), the Polynesian Village Resort, and the Contemporary Resort. Stops were added to EPCOT and the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa when they opened in 1982 and 1988 respectively.
It seems like almost everything is under construction in Disney World right now. In the parks, there are new lands and expansions being built, while some rides are getting new updates.

Disney World hotels are also going through some changes, including a HUGE change over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Now, the Grand Floridian is making some big changes to its lobby, and we’ve been keeping an eye on things there, including the construction of a new bar. So let’s take a look at what’s been going on.
Dining in Disney World is a passion of ours!
So many Halloween snacks!
We’ve been diving into Disney World’s Halloween treats for over 15 years, and this year is no different! Now, we’re headed to 3 different hotels to try out 4 brand-new fall treats.
So it’s no secret that when a new snack drops in Disney World, we get really excited and make a beeline for wherever that new snack has appeared so we can try it ASAP.
Moana Mini Cake
When we find out that there’s new CAKE in Disney World, we might even run a little faster, which is why we’ve eaten a LOT of cake (and we’ll eat more). Well, some new cakes and snacks recently dropped for World Princess Week, and let’s just say that getting our hands on said cakes and snacks proved trickier than we could have EVER imagined. We’ll take you step-by-step through our cake drama-filled day.
It’s the second week of August, and we have been busy eating and drinking our way around Disney World this week.
Annual Passholder Totally Sweet Sundae
That’s because the Disney Adults Crawl is officially ON (you can learn more about that here) AND Disney has already dropped MORE snacks for World Princess Week, including snacks themed around Moana, Tiana, Pocahontas, and more. Disney World restaurants have also been busying changing up their menus, so let’s see what changed this week.
World Princess Week is coming up soon and will run from August 23rd through August 31st in Disney World.
Moana Mini Cake
Now, you know what that means. It means we get to celebrate Disney Princesses in Disney World. And how do we celebrate? By eating Disney Princess-themed snacks! Now, we’ve already found a few of these snacks in Disney World, including the Rapunzel Berries and Cream Cake and Pocahontas-themed Colors of the Wind Petit Cake, but we just tried two MORE Princess treats, and one involved quite a long wait!
