I love
staying on Walt Disney World property and have been lucky enough to do so many
times! A lot of people always ask me is it worth the price, automatically
assuming that because it’s Disney
then it’s surely going to be expensive.
Now, I won’t lie to you, compared to the price you might pay for two weeks on
International Drive it will look pricey, but you’ve got to keep in mind that
what your paying for as a Disney Guest and what you get for that money compared
with what you might save staying off property.
Here are my
top 5 reasons to stay on Walt Disney World property!
- It’s all in the theme work!
Where else will you find an African game lodge or an exotic Polynesian
beach in Central
Florida ?
You might just think of your hotel as a shower and bed for the night, but it
can become so much more than that, it can become an experience within the
experience! When I’m sitting around the fire pit at Disneys Animal Kingdom
Lodge listening to traditional tribal stories, for a moment I forget where I
am, everything around me tells me I’m in the heart of Africa, from the sights
and smells to the sounds of the animals across the savannahs, I have been
transported half way around the globe!
Even little things like the sound of Dory singing ‘just keep swimming’
right underneath you as you splash about in the Big Blue pool over at Art of
Animation resort? You just can’t beat little things like that!
- Transport
In all my years of traveling to Walt Disney World, I’ve never rented a
car – not once! I can hear you gasping but it’s true, we’ve just never needed
one! With free complimentary guest transportation to all Disney parks, water
parks, resorts and Downtown Disney – there is nowhere you cant get to on those
busses! No hassle to find change for toll roads, no parking in the back of
beyond, no getting lost or arguing with the sat nav, I just board my bus, sit
back and relax until I reach my destination. Some people think having a car
gives them more freedom but I can
honestly say I have never felt confined or like I cannot get somewhere – ever!
Never worry about getting back to your resort; the busses never stop until every
guest has got back to their resort!
- Magical Express

For those of us flying into Florida VIP or should that be, VIG – very important guest!
- Disney Dining Plan
Since Disney started offering free
dining to Resort guests, we have been able to try some absolutely scrumptious
restaurants that would never have made it into our budget! Free dining saves us
well over £1000 every trip! I’ve
eaten at so many different locations over the last few years and when the offer
is on that’s when we are most enticed to book another Disney holiday! What we
save on dining we can put towards our accommodation or air fare.
- Extra Magic hours
One of the biggest draws to staying on Disney property, especially
during the peak seasons is the extra magic hours. Every day there will be one
park that opens a hour earlier just
for Disney resort guests, or one park that stays open for up to 3 hours after the park has closed to
all non-Disney resort guests! These extra magic hours give you the best chance
of getting in a few extra goes on your favourite – and what can be better than Big Thunder Mountain 2am ? I find I get more done in the morning
extra magic hours but there is something pretty cool about any park after
closing time!
What do you love most about being a Disney resort guest?
Until next time,
Sarah
