Hi Stephanie!
Welcome to planDisney.
It's always a pleasure to assist my fellow guests from the UK, especially as I know how disappointing it is when you can't make reservations for your choice of rooms.
If you want to take advantage of the
Free Dining & Drinks offer for 2025, I know that Standard and Water View rooms at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort are not included with that offer. It is possible that these rooms are available to book without including that special offer, so I recommend that you give the Walt Disney Travel Company a call on freephone UK number 0800 169 0730, and they can look at your dates and find the best deal for you. You might find that booking a Standard room, and adding the Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan to your reservation as an additional charge might be more cost-effective for you than booking a Preferred room that includes the dining plan. The Walt Disney Travel Company will be able to help with all the options.
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort is a great choice of hotel, not least because it has its own
Disney Skyliner station, making visits to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios a real breeze. The Skyliner is an attraction all of its own with fantastic views from high above the Resort. It is a comfortable, smooth ride. You can also visit other Disney Resort hotels along the line (Disney's Riviera Resort, Disney's Art of Animation Resort and Disney's Pop Century Resort). I highly recommend Topolino's Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera at Disney's Riviera Resort, for breakfast or dinner.
Breakfast à la Art with Mickey & Friends is delightful, and if you have time to step outside on the terrace, the views are spectacular!
Please come back and visit us again if you have any further questions, and you can
send me a direct question if you wish. We are always happy to help!
