Hi there, Ross!
Welcome to planDisney. We're delighted that you've stopped by with your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question! I'm excited to hear you're planning to visit The Most Magical Place on Earth with your family in early 2024. As a fellow Midwesterner, I can assure you that there's nothing like a mid-winter escape to the Walt Disney World Resort. I'm happy to offer some tips and tricks to help you prepare for an enchanting getaway!
Ross, you've mentioned that some of the members of your travel party may only want to visit the theme parks for a single day during your visit. For that reason, I recommend booking your stay as a room-only
Disney Resort hotel reservation with
theme park tickets purchased separately, instead of bundling them as part of a vacation package. This will allow you to choose your options à la carte and build a vacation that suits everyone in your group! Ross, booking for 2024 vacations is available now. You can check Resort hotel availability for your selected dates on the Walt Disney World Resort website or by calling the friendly Cast Members at the
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations phone line! Keep an eye on the
Special Offers page as well, Ross. If an offer is released at a later date but applies to your booking, you may be able to add it to your reservation later on.
Have you considered which Disney Resort hotel you'd like to stay at? One of the most important factors to consider when deciding on accommodations is location. Is there a specific theme park you hope to spend the most time at? Are you hoping to dine or shop at
Disney Springs? Is there a mode of
Resort transportation you hope to rely on most? There are lots of suitable options for larger parties, Ross. A few that come to mind are the Family Suites at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort, which sleep up to six adults, or the 1-Bedroom Villas at one of the Disney Vacation Club
Deluxe Villa Resorts, which usually sleep up to five adults. Either of these options would provide ample space for your family, and the 1-Bedroom Villas would even offer you in-room laundry and a full kitchen!
Ross, I hope you've found this information useful as you continue to plan a vacation filled with magical memories! I'm wishing you all the best with your planning. If you happen to have any additional questions, please feel free to revisit us at
planDisney anytime. We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Warm wishes,
Lauren
