    I’m 19 years old, am I old enough to book a hotel reservation at Port Orleans riverside hotel?

    Welcome, Sofia! Disney’s Port Orleans Resort - Riverside is such a nice resort at Disney World! My family has enjoyed visiting this resort in the past! Port Orleans Riverside has such charm that it’s an easy resort to want to revisit! The horse-drawn carriage rides make this resort a favorite for Guests – including my family!

    I checked in with a friendly Disney Cast Member today. He informed me that Guests must be at least 18 years old to reserve and check in to a Walt Disney World Resort hotel. To secure a vacation package, including a hotel and theme park tickets, you will need to make a $200 deposit when making your reservation. From there on, you can use your My Disney Experience account to continue making payments toward your package.

    Sofia, as you continue planning your vacation, be sure to check out the special offers page on the Disney World website! There are so many money-saving offers available right now that Guests can take advantage of as they plan! You’ll be surprised at how much money you’ll save using these offers!

    While I’m not sure when you plan on visiting Disney World, you might want to consider looking at the Disney After Hours events that are held in select parks on select nights. These limited ticket events are available throughout the year! When the sun goes down, the parks really come to life late into the night! Limited tickets, smaller crowds, and shorter waits for rides! The heat of the day has also cooled quite a bit, making for a very enjoyable experience in the parks! Complimentary popcorn, ice cream novelties, and select beverages just add to the fun of the night! Check it out!
    Come on back to planDisney as you continue planning your visit! We’re happy to help!

    Dreams do come true!
