Hi there, Janell, and welcome to planDisney!
I'm definitely looking forward to the
2025 perk that grants complimentary
Disney Water Parks admission to Disney Resorts Collection hotel Guests on check-in day. It's another great reason to stay on property, besides the free transportation options and
Early Theme Park Entry. As you've heard, Disney Resorts Collection hotels Guests will be given access to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park (whichever water park is open at the time of your visit) on each check-in day. For example, if you have a split stay (you move to another hotel mid-trip), you will get free entry on each check-in date. However, this perk cannot be extended to another date of your vacation. So, if you don't use it on the same date of your arrival, this perk will be lost.
The good news is that the
Disney Resorts Collection hotels have spectacular wet and wild amenities. Some of my favorite pools are the ones at Disney's Art of Animation Resort, Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge, and Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. I highly recommend checking out pool details for your particular hotel and plan for a day to simply relax poolside. The theme parks are a blast, but I can't imagine a vacation without a Resort hotel day.
I'm sending pixie dust your way for you to make it in time to explore the water parks for free, Janell. If you think of any other Disney vacation planning questions, reach out to us here at planDisney.
I'm all ears!
Magic always,
LeAndra
