food IS a theme park
It’s officially summer, which means we want to jump into the pool at our resort after munching on snacks and sipping drinks from the poolside bar.
Stormalong Bay Construction
We have been waiting and waiting for news on when one of our favorite Disney resort pools is going to reopen after routine maintenance, and we think we found a MAJOR clue to when we can get back in and make a splash.
Breakfast at Disney World is no easy feat. When you’re ready to head into the parks, the last thing you want to think about is breakfast, but you know what they say: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. For this restaurant, breakfast might be the best meal of the day.
Disney’s Yacht Club
EPCOT can be an especially hard place to grab breakfast — your table-service choices are two character meals (at Akershus and Garden Grill), and while we love them some days just aren’t a character breakfast kind of day. And your quick service choices? Well, you’ll be relegated to a few pre-made breakfast sandwiches. But what if we told you there’s a GREAT breakfast option a short walk from EPCOT’s back gate?
It’s almost Easter time in Disney World!
Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny
To celebrate, we’re getting tons of snacks, fun Easter egg displays, and more around Disney! We’re getting even more decor that we are obsessed with over at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club, and we’re bringing you with us to check it out.
Disney World always has something going on!
Magic Kingdom
There are major expansions in the works, some sad goodbyes coming soon, and so much more! We love how Disney keeps us on our toes, sometimes in the most exciting ways! Now we finally know the returning date for one of our favorite Disney World traditions and we are hopping with joy.
Rope dropping can be a hassle…but it doesn’t have to be with this tip!
Hollywood Studios at rope drop
Rope dropping is the process of showing up to a theme park before it opens and then subsequently getting phased deeper and deeper into the park as it gradually becomes available to the public. Rope drop is popular among guests as it usually provides you with the shortest wait times of the day and a leg up on guests who show up later. With that said, it’s more like ripping off a Band-Aid rather than something you’ll love to do. Rope dropping at Disney World requires you to get up EARLY, and it could be even earlier than you think once you start factoring in transportation times. We’ve rope dropped from many different hotels over the years, and if you want to quickly get to rope drop and make the most out of your day, avoid these hotels and opt for their substitutions for a shorter commute.
‘Tis the season for all of the gingerbread houses to be on display at Disney World!
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
One of our favorite times of year at DFB is the holidays. Not just because of all of the new snack offerings (okay, maybe a little), but because of all of the gingerbread displays that go up in various Disney World resorts!
Disney World’s Deluxe Resorts are the fanciest (and usually the most expensive) hotels on property. We recently took you on a tour of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, which is located very close to Magic Kingdom.
EPCOT Area Hotels
Now we’re heading to the EPCOT area to tour another Deluxe hotel over there. There’s actually a pair of fancy hotels right next to each other, and Disney calls them “sister hotels.” Today, we’re taking a look at the “fun” sister in this pair, although you’ll probably agree with us that it still looks like a very upscale experience. These rooms aren’t quite as pricey as the Grand Floridian, but they’re not far off. But you can head inside with us now for FREE to take a look at these rooms! [Read more…]
One of the big perks of Disney World’s Resorts is their impressively themed pools.
Luna Park Pool
From whimsical pools featuring beloved Disney characters to serene and relaxing pools, there are a lot of different options in the mix! But, not all Disney World pools are created equally, so we asked YOU, our readers, which resorts have the very best pools. These were the winners.
It’s normal to be biased when it comes to favorite hotels in Disney World, and that’s because Disney World has a hotel for just about any preference!
Polynesian Resort
But when it comes to deluxe resorts, it seems we’re even pickier — we have solid opinions on which are our favorites, and sometimes, we just can’t agree! And that’s okay! So we decided to ask you, our readers, how your rated Disney World’s deluxe hotels! And your answers surprised us!
Spring is just around the corner!
Spring Balloons
We’ve already spotted adorable balloons for spring, and now some nods to Easter can be found in Disney World!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
