    Looking to plan a special Disney trip for my daughter and I for her 16th birthday. We don’t have much money to spend, but would enjoy 1-3 days on a park hopper and stay at a resort hotel preferably in August.

    How ya doin', Shawn, and welcome to planDisney!

    Parents who want to add a little pixie dust to their children's lives with visits to the Walt Disney World Resort have a special place in my heart. My mama did it for me when I was just 3 years old, and I can't tell you how much joy it brings me to help you do it for your daughter. It's time to get started booking that vacation package for y'all's family fun time. 

    Choosing your Disney Resorts Collection hotel is the first step toward making your magical dreams come true. I'd recommend checking out Disney's All-Star Sports Resort, Disney's All-Star Movies Resort, Disney's All-Star Music Resort, and Disney's Pop Century Resort as your best budget-friendly options. These value resorts offer that Disney touch in a way that won't break the bank. Book them as a vacation package with your theme park tickets with a Park Hopper Option, by using the Build Your Vacation tool right on the Walt Disney World Resort homepage. 

    Now the real pixie dust can be found amongst the Special Offers, Deals & Discounts. There are savings to be grabbed for anyone who fits the parameters. I'm talking room discounts, Disney+ Subscriber perks, possible free dining plans, and so much more. See what works best for you and get going on that booking!

    Shawn, my mom taking me on that trip way back when sparked a lifelong love in me, and now I'm the one planning the mother-daughter Disney vacations. I wish you and your daughter the same fun and lots of love. If you have any other questions, please come back to see me

    Happy planning!
