Hi Victoria,
Glad you stopped by at the
Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. Let me try to help you out with your concern.
There are several ways to book a vacation at Walt Disney World Resort. From room-only reservations, to
Magic Your Way Vacation Packages, there is a way for everyone and every budget. Although the best way to book is either directly (online or by speaking to a vacation planning specialist at (407) 939-1936) or with an authorized travel agent, you could also book rooms at internet sites like Expedia or Orbitz. Keep in mind that these could have their own cancellation terms and conditions.
A Magic Your Way Vacation Package only requires a $200 deposit, and its balance must be paid 30 days before Check-In. That is also the last day to cancel without penalties. Room-only reservations require a deposit equivalent to the first nigh's rate and its balance will be due at Check-In. Cancelations must be made up five days before Check-In in order to receive a full refund of the deposit.
One last tip: remember to keep an eye for
Special Offers, which can help you save some Disney Dollars. And if budget is a concern, consider a moderate or value resort. My favorite?
Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. Hope to see you real soon!
Ricardo.
