Hi there, Kim!
Welcome to planDisney. We're delighted you've stopped by with your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question! I'm excited to hear that you're planning a holiday at The Most Magical Place on Earth. Are you counting down the days!? Kim, I'm happy to help you to prepare for an enchanting escape to the Walt Disney World Resort.
It sounds like you've purchased a vacation package including theme park tickets and a stay at a fantastic
Disney Resort hotel. You're in for an incredible time!
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort is a wonderful choice. With a central location on the
Disney Skyliner and several fantastic dining options, this Moderate Resort hotel is one of my favorites! Kim, theme park tickets purchased as part of a vacation package are valid beginning on the date of check-in at your Disney Resort hotel, so, unfortunately, you won't be able to use them until your scheduled arrival at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. For that reason, I encourage you to consider reversing your plans, if possible, to begin your trip at a Disney Resort hotel, and end your trip at the off-property lodging you mentioned. This would allow you to use your
14-day Disney Magic Ticket to its fullest potential because this ticket type is valid for a delightful 18 days after its first use!
Kim, your Disney Magic Ticket will unlock all kinds of fun at the Walt Disney World Resort. I encourage you to explore a
Disney water park during your holiday if time allows, as these experiences are included with your admission! At this time, Disney's Typhoon Lagoon water park is open while Disney's Blizzard Beach water park undergoes refurbishment. Both water parks offer a splash-tastic afternoon retreat after a morning in the theme parks! Since your tickets include the
Park Hopper option as well, you'll be able to experience multiple theme parks in the same day by "hopping" after 2:00 p.m. (subject to change). Plus, you'll receive complimentary
Memory Maker photo downloads to savor your holiday memories even after you return home!
I hope you've found this information helpful as you continue to plan a magical holiday, Kim. I'm wishing you safe travels and an unforgettable Walt Disney World Resort vacation experience! If you have any more questions, please feel free to stop back by
planDisney again anytime. We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Enchantment awaits,
Lauren
