Greetings, Donna!
Welcome back to planDisney! I am delighted to see that you have an adventure in The Most Magical Place on earth planned for this summer. This is such an amazing year to visit Walt Disney World Resort.
The Most World's Most Magical Celebration will still be going strong when you arrive. This epic 50th Anniversary Celebration includes so many new additions to the parks. If you will be spending any evening hours in the four theme parks, check out the
Beacons of Magic. These gorgeous displays light up each park's icon every night. They are truly beautiful, and make fantastic photo ops!
Visiting a Disney water park during a summertime stay is an excellent way to spend a day, or two!
The Beachcomber Shacks at
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park are a great space to relax during your splashtastic adventure. A little sand, shade, and space make these the ideal spot for your Ohana to hang out. The included towels and refillable mugs are an amazing added bonus. These comfy spots are reserved on a first come first serve basis by calling (407) WDW-PLAY. Bookings begin 60 days in advance. Sadly, there is not an online option for booking at this time. You can also reserve a shack at
Singapore Sal's after you arrive at the park, but availability is not guaranteed. Beachcomber Shacks are popular, and reservations can fill up quickly. This is especially true in the warm summer months. If these spectacular spots are on your must-do list for your magical vacation, a phone call is strongly recommended.
I do want to quickly note that
Disney's Blizzard Beach is currently closed at this time. Be sure to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for the latest Disney Parks news, including announcements about the reopening of this frosty fun park!
I hope that your trip is memorable and magical!
We'll see ya real soon!
Tammy
