Welcome to planDisney, Adriene! Ready to plan a trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth in 2025? Your timing is practically perfect in every way.
Walt Disney World Resort announced just this week that you can now make reservations for next year. They also shared amazing news for 2025:
a trip to a water park on the first day of your stay is included in your resort reservation. You can drop your bags off at your Walt Disney World Resort and splash away the travel fatigue.
Disney Resorts Collection includes deluxe resorts which are available to all guests, not just DVC members. Near Magic Kingdom, these include
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa,
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort,
Disney's Contemporary Resort, and its sister
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort. Each of these is on the monorail path, a very magical pumpkin coach to Cinderella Castle and the rest of
Magic Kingdom Park. On Bay Lake and a short boat ride to the Magic Kingdom is
Wilderness Lodge. This resort is so very close to the magic but transports you to the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest. We recently went to
Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White, and it is now my favorite dining experience at Walt Disney World.
The
EPCOT area resorts are loved for their proximity to this park,
Disney's BoardWalk, and their pools.
Disney's Beach Club Resort is home to
Stormalong Bay, an amazing area with a shipwreck and a sand-bottom pool.
Disney's BoardWalk Inn has
Luna Park Pool that celebrates the amusement parks of the 1920s.
Disney's Riviera Resort is not on the Boardwalk but is on the
Skyliner, which will have you swinging like Tarzan, breezing over to EPCOT and
Disney's Hollywood Studios. This resort is gorgeous with amazing dining and views of the fireworks.
Life is full of tough choices, innit? Luckily, all of them are amazing. As you get further in your planning, please come back to
planDisney with any questions. We're here for you!
Adventure is out there!
