Hi Lu Ann,
Welcome to planDisney! We are so excited to welcome you to the magic!
Well, you have certainly picked a solid number of nights to visit. First things first, review the resort hotel options with the
Disney Resorts Collection. Check out all of the amenities of each resort. My family loves resort hotels with multiple transportation and dining options.
Once you have reviewed the resort hotel list, compare
vacation package prices for different resort hotels for the dates of your visit. My family loves
Disney's Contemporary Resort and
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa because they both have walking paths to Magic Kingdom. We have also enjoyed
Disney's BoardWalk Inn because, from there we could walk to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios. Aside from your accommodations, you will need to also consider the number of days you will need theme park admission. We always do at least five days of theme park visits so that we can visit each park at least once and have at least one day of relaxation by the pool.
When you have a vacation package booked, make sure that reservation is linked in your
My Disney Experience account. You should then be able to make
Disney Park Pass system reservations for everyone in your party with valid theme park admission. And, when your
dining reservation window opens, currently at 60-days prior to your trip, make
advanced dining reservations. These are especially important for character meals.
Lu Ann, while you can certainly make all of your plans online, if you need assistance, feel free to
call to speak with a Cast Member by phone. We cannot wait to welcome you to an
Incredible Disney visit!
Magic and memories,
Donyell
