Hi Joseph!
Welcome to planDisney! There’s a great Winnie The Pooh quote that says “Any day spent with you is my favorite day.” I think this is especially true when we’re visiting
The Most Magical Place on Earth with our friends and family!
Joseph, if you visit the
Walt Disney World Resort website and enter your travel dates plus your party size, you should be able to see availability for rooms that accommodate nine people. Any available options will be found in the
Deluxe Villa category. There are a limited number of 3-Bedroom Grand Villas that can accommodate up to 12 adults in each and they do often book quickly.
If you're not finding accommodations that work with your travel dates and party size, you may also want to consider booking several standard rooms. With this option, you're likely to find greater flexibility when it comes to pricing and your travel dates. Rooms can only be booked one at a time on the Walt Disney World Resort website, but you can make a request for either adjoining (nearby) or connecting (interior door) rooms after making all of your reservations. While room requests cannot be guaranteed, I've found Cast Members are always happy to do their best! I suggest
calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations to note your request once your reservations have been made. The Cast Members at this phone number can also assist you with making your travel plans if you'd prefer to speak with someone rather than booking online.
Regardless of where you choose to stay, there are so many wonderful
benefits of staying in the Disney Resorts Collection. My personal favorite is
Early Theme Park Entry as my boys are early risers (even on vacation!) and that extra 30 minutes in the park is a great opportunity to visit some of our favorite attractions with lower wait times. You can also enjoy earlier booking windows for
advanced dining reservations and
Lightning Lane passes!
Joseph, I hope this information is helpful as you continue to plan for your upcoming visit! If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney - we're all ears!
Happy Planning!
