We are arriving Jan 3, 2025,my birthday, just a night. We leaving on the Treasure next day. Trying to figure out if the hotels will still be decorated for Christmas? I want to try to do a sip and stroll at the resorts rather than going into the parks.

Question

Answer 1

Disney by land and sea to ring in the New Year? Janet, I really love your style! It will be a holiday to Treasure for sure!

I just got home from a trip to Walt Disney World Resort this morning and can share that the theme parks and resorts are glitterally fabulous for the holiday season. While there is no official schedule announcing how long the parks will stay decorated, typically, these stay up through the first week of January. So, on January 3, you will hopefully have your birthday wishes come true with a bit of the magic still waiting for you at Walt Disney World. I will be there for the runDisney Marathon Weekend the following week, so I am wishing upon the stars they stay up a little longer. There are no guarantees for either of us as the schedule sometimes changes, but I am feeling good about your chances and will be hoping for some extra Pixie Dust for mine.

A sip-and-stroll sounds simply splendid! Just thinking about the gingerbread at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, the iconic Christmas tree at Disney's Contemporary Resort and the fabulous dining and lounges at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, you can have a magical tour with the Disney Monorail as your coach. I'd also hop on a boat and stop by Disney's Wilderness Lodge. This resort is gorgeous year-round, but it could melt even the coldest of hearts during the holidays.

Janet, I am so excited thinking about you starting 2025 with a Walt Disney World and Disney Cruise Line vacation. If you have any other questions as you plan this shining, shimmering, splendid vacation, please cruise back by planDisney.

See and Sea 'Ya Real Soon!
