Hello, Heidi! Welcome to planDisney!
You have come to the perfect place to ask your question about making those early reservations. We are a family of super planners here!
You are correct that you may only book a room-only stay at a
Walt Disney Resort Collection hotel up to December 31, 2023 online. You will need to book the stay with a reservation specialist via a telephone call. You are within 499 days of your intended arrival date, so you are well within the window to book your stay as soon as you’re ready. You can find the
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations phone number at this link.
Then if you’d like to sprinkle some more pixie dust on your existing reservation, you have the option to upgrade that room-only reservation to a full vacation package. With this option, you can bundle your theme park tickets, hotel reservation(s), and other selections at a better value. The vacation packages should be available in Late Spring/Early Summer 2023. Keep an eye out on the
Disney Parks Blog to get the latest announcements about the release date and other Disney news.
There is so much to look forward to during your trip next year, Heidi! Please let us know if you have any other questions during the planning process—and even during your stay at the Resort!
Magic always,
LeAndra
