Hi Karen,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us a question. If I understand your question correctly, you're staying in a 2 Bedroom Villa at one of Walt Disney World's
Deluxe Villas. You're going to absolutely love all of the space and amenities that come with those rooms - they're probably my favourite places to stay in all of Walt Disney World Resort!
Your families definitely aren't tied together for the purposes of your
Theme Park Tickets, even if you haven't taken the Park Hopper option. You can absolutely choose to visit different theme parks on different days. The only restriction that you have is, based on your example above, one family can't decide to go to
Disney's Animal Kingdom in the morning and then head to
Epcot for dinner later that night.
I hope my answer helps you plan your upcoming vacation. Please don't hesitate to come back and visit us if you have any other questions.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
