Howdy, Ashley! Thanks for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I am so incredibly excited that you are planning a visit to the Disneyland Resort!
You'll be glad to know that
vacation packages are available that you can customize to fit your family's needs. You can choose from accommodations at the three Disneyland Resort Hotels or numerous Good Neighbor Hotels. You can then pick the number of days of tickets and whether you want to add any character dining or ground transportation options. When you book a vacation package more than 30 days in advance, a minimum $200 deposit is required (plus the cost of any travel insurance). Then, you can make payments toward your package until 30 days prior to your arrival date, at which time the full amount is due. It's up to you when you make payments and how much those payments will be as long as your package is paid in full by that 30-day prior to arrival deadline.
Since this sounds like a very special vacation, I would highly recommend booking a room at a Disneyland Resort Hotel so you can be immersed in Disney magic 24 hours a day. Each hotel is exquisitely themed and mere footsteps from the parks. Plus, you will have
Extra Magic Hour each day of your stay including exclusive access to Disney California Adventure Park on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
For the ultimate Disneyland Resort experience, consider a
VIP Tour that includes priority access to attractions, reserved seating for shows, parades, and fireworks, and your own personal Disney expert for at least six hours or more.
I would love to help you continue to plan your visit, so please return with any other questions you may have!
