Hi, Caroline!
You're planning a trip for 8 to Walt Disney World; how exciting!
You'll have several options regarding accommodations, but if you'd like to use the monorail to get to both Magic Kingdom and Epcot from your WDW resort hotel, then try Disney's Contemporary Resort, Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa or Disney's Polynesian Resort. If you'd like to stay in one villa (think full kitchen, in-room laundry, separate sleeping and living areas plus additional bathroom) consider a two-bedroom at
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort or
The Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Additional
WDW Deluxe Villas offer similar accommodations and proximity to Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios or Disney's Animal Kingdom Park. You'll get the largest rooms for (likely) the lowest cost in the Deluxe category with a stay at
Disney's Old Key West Resort.
In the Moderate and Value categories, 2 Family Suites might be the way to go, as they all sleep 6. The
Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort and Casitas at
Disney's Coronado Springs Resort are both great options. Family Suites at
Disney's All-Star Music Resort and
Disney's Art of Animation Resort may be the most budget-friendly, too.
Happy planning! Send more questions as you think of them; we love to help!
