    I'm staying at The Grand Floridian in September, does it come with Extra Magic Hours?

    Hi Jennifer. Welcome to planDisney! 

    If Mary Poppins were sitting beside me on my side of the computer, she would say that this is a practically perfect question in every way! You are speaking my love language when you mention Disney's Grand Floridian! This Resort hotel holds a special place in my heart. I'm so happy to hear you'll be experiencing its charm! 

    I hope you'll get to do a little shopping at Basin White, try the famous Strawberry Soup at 1900 Park Fare, or enjoy some relaxation at the Courtyard Pool. 

    Jennifer, in Mary Poppins spit-spot fashion, let's get to your question. Being a Guest at any Disney Resort hotel lets you enjoy Early Theme Park Entry each morning of your stay. And as a Guest at a Disney Deluxe Resort, like the Grand Floridian, you can enjoy Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. 

    This magical perk occurs on select nights and in specific parks. I absolutely LOVE this advantage! During these events, you'll encounter smaller crowds and shorter wait times while meandering the park at night. It's truly magical! Be sure to check the Hours & Events Calendar closer to your vacation to find out which parks will be open for this event so you can plan your day accordingly.

    I wish you a whimsically wonderful stay at the Grand Floridian! One of my favorite things to do is pick out a sweet treat at Gasparilla Island Grill, find a table outside, and enjoy a quiet moment with Cinderella Castle in the background. It's quintessential Disney to me!

    Please visit us anytime with any questions, and follow us on Instagram. We love to help you experience the magic!

    Wishing you a great big beautiful tomorrow, 
    Shonette
