Christmas at resorts

    We love a yearly Christmas visit to Wilderness Lodge. Last year I booked a bounce back offer 13 months in advance. This year there seems to be no bounce back rate at all for Wilderness Lodge. Today is the seventh day since our departure. Can you help?

    Well, hello there, Ana! I'm glad to meet you here at planDisney, looking to bounce right back to Walt Disney World Resort.

    Taking advantage of the "bounceback" offer is one of my favorite things to do! Knowing I have another trip on the books puts a little spring in my step. With only seven days after leaving Walt Disney World to take advantage of this special rate, it's time to pounce like Tigger (that's with a "double gr er").

    The offer can save you up to 35% on a deluxe resort, but the number of rooms available is limited. Disney's Wilderness Lodge is a popular resort year-round, but it is especially gorgeous during the holiday season, making it a tradition for many. All the allotted rooms may have been booked. I would call Disney Resorts Reservations and speak with a Cast Member to see if there is availability when you can go. Sometimes, changing your arrival or departure date by one day makes a difference.

    I highly recommend going ahead and booking your stay at Wilderness Lodge. Did you know you can usually modify your reservation if a discount becomes available? With a room booked, you know you'll have another magical holiday at this gorgeous resort. And then keep checking the Special Offers page throughout the year. Most current promotions are focused on early 2025, but additional offers for Florida residents, Annual Passholders, and fall and winter vacations may be announced later in 2025. You can see if any of these apply to the resort and dates of your visit. 

    Simply find your resort reservation under "My Plans" and select the option to modify your reservation. On the page that appears, you have the option to change the offer. Follow the prompts to the screen with all the room types and rates. If any offers are available, you should be able to toggle between standard and special rates. I have done this several times. Occasionally, I have had to change room type (like view or preferred location) to find an available room, but I like seeing all the options. 

    Ana, as we close 2024 and look forward to the new year, I hope your 2025 is sprinkled with Pixie Dust and magic! If you have any questions as you plan your annual trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth during the most wonderful time of the year, bounce back by planDisney. We love seeing our pals!

    TTFN!
