Hey there, Caroline! Welcome to planDisney. We are here for all your planning questions, even the last-minute ones!
Oh boy! Your arrival day is almost here! I can't think of a better place than the Grand Californian Hotel & Spa to stay during a
holiday visit. If you will need a crib during your stay, there are two options. There is a full-size metal crib, as well as a Pack 'n Play option. If you haven't checked in yet, you can use the
online check-in feature either in the
Disneyland app or on the Disneyland website, and there may be a spot to make requests before your stay. Otherwise, you can call the
Grand Californian and see if they can add that request to your reservation. Lastly, the front desk will always be willing to take requests when you arrive. Requests are not a guarantee, though, so I do recommend trying to make your request ahead of your arrival.
I hope you will have time built into your visit to enjoy the Grand Californian. The Great Hall Cart is a hot spot for
holiday treats, like the Mickey-shaped Gingerbread Cookie! The fire is a great spot to gather and rest with a nightcap after a long day in the parks too. Be sure to take advantage of the entrance right into Disney California Adventure Park on your park day!
Caroline, I hope you have a magical holiday visit! See you real soon!
Carrie
