Hi Lisa,
Thanks for your excellent question. Traveling with extra teenagers -- whether they are friends or your child's significant other -- can pose an accommodation dilemma for all of us, especially if you are trying to keep the resort budget as low as possible.
We've solved the problem in the past by booking two connecting rooms at a value resort such as
Pop Century or one of the All-Star resorts. That gives some privacy and separation at night, but still allows access to two bathrooms.
The other most economical option on
Walt Disney World property is one of the family suites at
Art of Animation or
All-Star Music. The suites have a private bedroom and two foldout beds in the common area, plus two bathrooms and a kitchenette.
If none of the on-property meets your needs and budget, I can tell you that there are some hotels and resorts near Walt Disney World that offer larger accommodations, some at a lower cost. You don't get the benefits of staying on property --
Extra Magic Hours, free
MagicBands, free transportation and standard parking and more -- but it could solve your issue with sleeping arrangements.
I hope that's helpful. Thanks for looking to the Disney Parks Moms Panel for assistance. Enjoy your spring vacation with your family and friends!
Wilma
