    Hi, We are staying at Sarasota Springs resort this year. This is our first time at a Deluxe Hotel that includes extra night time hours. We are unsure of how they work. Are they like the purchased after hours events?

    Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Ron!

    Welcome to planDisney! We are DELIGHTED you stopped by and honored to help you plan your upcoming trip to Disney World! Get ready for unforgettable adventures, enchanting moments, and probably a few happy tears. Let’s make sure you’re all set to soak up every bit of the MAGIC, so let the countdown begin!

    First of all, you are going to love staying at Saratoga Springs Resort! Nestled near Disney Springs, it offers gorgeous views, walking trails, and a relaxing, horse-racing-themed vibe. The pools are fantastic (hello, waterslide!), and the rooms are spacious enough for the whole family to unwind in style. It’s the perfect blend of Disney fun and resort-style relaxation! 

    As a guest at Saratoga Springs, get ready for a DELUXE perk—Extended Evening Theme Park Hours! These special late-night hours are exclusive to Deluxe Resort guests (like you!) and let you enjoy select parks after they’ve officially closed to regular guests. It’s like having VIP access without paying extra!

    Here’s the scoop: On certain nights, you’ll get two extra hours in the park with shorter wait times for top attractions. Just make sure you have a valid park admission and bring your MagicBand, MagicMobile pass, or Key to the World card. Just scan in at the attractions you want to ride, and you will be good to go! Oh, and no need to re-enter the park if you are already there—just stay put, relax, and enjoy the MAGIC while the crowds fade away.

    You asked about the difference between Extended Hours and Disney After Hours events. Disney After Hours events last three hours, cost money, and provide complimentary snacks, while Extended Evening Hours are two-hour events and totally free with your Deluxe stay.

    So charge up your phone, grab a churro, and get ready to feel like a VIP—with an extra side of pixie dust!

    If you have other questions, please let us know. We are here to help in any way!

    Have a MAGICAL day!
