Hi there, Christine!
Welcome to
planDisney, where we love assisting Guests like you with answers to their Disney vacation questions. I’m so glad you decided to stop by with your question about booking a
Disney Resort hotel room for an upcoming visit to
The Most Magical Place on Earth. I am happy to offer you a few options as you make your reservations.
You have a few options for booking your Disney Resort hotel stay with a total of three Guests. If you are booking a Disney Resort hotel room only, you can book with all three Guests included on the reservation, regardless of when each Guest will be present. This will ensure that all Guests are included on the reservation, making it possible to access the Resort hotel room and secure
advance dining reservations and
Lightning Lane selections. This can get tricky when you book a Walt Disney World Resort vacation package that includes a Disney Resort hotel room and
theme park tickets. All Guests on the reservation for the vacation package must have the same amount of theme park ticket days, so if you and the other Guest that will be staying for the entire two weeks want to purchase a vacation package with 14-day theme park tickets but the Guest staying for one week wants a 7-day theme park ticket, you wouldn’t be able to include theme park tickets with your vacation package. In this case, you would need to book a Disney Resort hotel and then purchase your theme park tickets separately. Your final option would be to book the reservations separately, a one-week vacation package for 3 Guests and a one-week vacation package for 2 Guests. You can place a request with Guest Services to stay in the same room for the two reservations. They can annotate this request on your reservation. While Cast Members always do their best to accommodate Guest requests, it is not guaranteed.
I hope this information helps you sort out the best method for booking your visit to Walt Disney World, Christine! If you have additional questions or need more guidance, please return to planDisney. We are here for you and happy to help!
See Ya Real Soon!
