    If you book a night in a Disney hotel do you get water park tickets on the day of check in

    Welcome to planDisney, Anna! Thanks for sharing your splash-tastic question with us! 

    Summer is a great time to visit Walt Disney World. Cool Kids’ Summer will be in full swing with new shows and attractions, the return of beloved rides from refurbishment, and all sorts of special events. And both Walt Disney World water parks, Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, will be open and part of the summer fun! 

    I’m happy to share that guests staying at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel can get free water park admission on their check-in day from May 26 to September 8, 2026. It looks like your visit will overlap with this awesome perk based on the information you’ve provided, so get ready for some fun in the sun! If you haven’t booked your stay yet, you can find a list of eligible Disney Resorts Collection Hotels here. 

    I was able to take advantage of this perk in 2025, and there is nothing better than kicking off your vacation with a float around the lazy river after a long day in airports and on an airplane. You can find a full list of attractions for Typhoon Lagoon here, and for Blizzard Beach here. 

    I hope you have a wonderful Walt Disney World holiday, Anna. Don’t hesitate to swim on back to planDisney if you have any other questions. We’re always happy to help! 

    Magical travels!
