    I am bringing my two grandchildren to Disney in May where should I stay for them to experience the best and what package is best deal

    Welcome, friend. I’m so glad you found us here at planDisney! Now, let’s get to your question.

    I’m so excited that you’re going to be taking your grandchildren to the Walt Disney World Resort. What a special memory and a guaranteed win for the Grandparent of the Year Award! One of my favorite things about the resort is how many attractions can be experienced with the entire family. Of course, Magic Kingdom Park has the most attractions with no height limit, but really, these types of experiences are all around the parks. It truly is the embodiment of Walt Disney’s dream of a place where Guests of all ages can enjoy fun together.

    Every adventure requires a first step, and often that starts with picking the best Disney Resorts Collection Hotel for your group. When you are with young children, location, location, location is the most important factor in choosing a resort. Because of this, I typically recommend Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, Disney’s Contemporary Resort, or Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. These three are on the monorail line, giving you the easiest and quickest access to Magic Kingdom Park. You can also use the monorail system to get to EPCOT. My next recommendation is the resorts on the Disney Skyliner route: Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, Disney’s Pop Century Resort, Disney’s Riviera Resort, and Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. This gives you quick and easy access to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. When it comes to deals, check out the Special Offers page of the website for the most current options to see what best meets your needs.

    When planning a great trip, all it takes is a little faith, trust, and pixie dust. And what better way to sprinkle some pixie dust than by adding free food into the mix? Currently, you may be able to score a free dining plan for kids ages 3 to 9 with vacation packages in 2026. As a Disney foodie, I’m always thinking about food, and when you book an eligible vacation package with this deal, many of your grandchildren’s meals could be free. I’m not sure you can get much better than that! That said, there are several deals to explore, so take a look and see what’s going to help you access the magic in a way that best suits you and your family.

    New friend, you never know what kinds of magic you’ll find when you believe. So enjoy every single moment of your upcoming trip, and please don’t hesitate to reach out with any other questions.

    Second star to the right and straight on till morning,
    Matt
