Hello, Sarah!
Welcome to planDisney! I see that you're planning to visit the Disneyland Resort at a very, merry time. I'd be happy to help you get started!
I'm happy to share that Disneyland Resort vacation packages for all of 2023 are currently available! You're welcome to book a
package that includes either a Disneyland Resort Hotel or a
Good Neighbor Hotel, as well as your park tickets. Because park reservations open on a rolling basis, you'd need to set a reminder so that you can
make your park reservations when they become available later in the year. But I definitely recommend booking your package soon, because the holidays can be a very popular time to visit! Booking a vacation package is also a nice way to spread out the cost of your vacation. You can make a deposit when you book, then make payments as you like. Just make sure your balance is paid in full at least 30 days prior to your vacation.
Are you already dreaming of where you'll get your beauty sleep after a big day in the parks? My personal favorite is the
Disneyland Hotel, I just love the theme and seeing the history of Disneyland Park reflected in so much of the design and decor. You also can't go wrong with the gorgeous
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa, which even includes an exclusive entrance right into Disney California Adventure Park! All of the Disneyland Resort Hotels come with some
extra magical perks for guests, including early park entry...which is definitely my family's favorite time in the parks!
We have also stayed at many of the nearby
Good Neighbor Hotels. Many of these hotels offer great options for larger parties, and some offer additional amenities like breakfast or free transportation to the Disneyland Resort. My kids especially love bunk beds, which some Good Neighbor Hotels have! We like to choose Good Neighbor Hotels that are within walking distance of the parks, it makes it really easy to go take a break during the day.
Sarah, I expect that the
holidays will be in full swing during your visit! In the past, holiday offerings have included special snacks, drinks, entertainment, and so much more. It's always so fun to meet our Disney friends dressed in their holiday best! Keep an eye out for sneak peeks of holiday magic on the Disney Parks Blog so you don't miss a single bit of holiday cheer!
Keep moving forward!
Amanda
