Hi Kristy, and welcome to planDisney. Thanks for sending in your question. Planning a trip for a group of six is going to make for an incredible vacation.
Talking
Disney Resorts Collection hotels is one of my favorite parts of helping Guests. There is truly something for every budget and every vacation style, and the right resort can make your stay feel even more relaxed and enjoyable.
For a group of six, you have a few ways to stay comfortably under one roof. Many Guests look toward Family Suites, Cabins, or Deluxe Villas because they offer the extra space that makes traveling in a larger group a lot easier. These options typically include separate sleeping areas, a kitchenette or full kitchen, and a shared living space where everyone can unwind at the end of the day.
If you are looking for the most budget-friendly way to keep everyone together, I recommend checking out the Family Suites at
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort or Disney’s All Star Music Resort. The extra room, multiple sleeping areas, and the ability to make quick meals or snacks go a long way on a group trip.
If you want something a little more unique, the
Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort are a great option. They offer plenty of space and a peaceful setting that feels tucked away from the busier areas of Walt Disney World. The Treehouse Villas at
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort also sleep up to nine and are one of the most memorable accommodations on property.
You can also explore the
Deluxe Villa Resorts, where one, two, and three-bedroom villas bring everyone together in a single space with plenty of room to breathe. My personal favorites are the
Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, the
BoardWalk Villas, which give you walking access to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios, and Saratoga Springs for its proximity to Disney Springs.
If those options do not fit your plans and you want to reserve two standard rooms instead, just note that adjoining or connecting rooms are always a request and never guaranteed. Go ahead and book two rooms in the same category or view, then call the Tickets and Hotel Reservations number listed on the
Help Center webpage and ask to have the reservations linked with a request for adjoining rooms. When you arrive, skip
Direct-to-Room Service and check in with a Cast Member at the front desk to reiterate your request. Offering to wait a little longer for a room assignment can help. I actually went through this exact process at
Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort recently with friends, and it worked out perfectly for our group.
If you want help narrowing down resort choices or have more planning questions, feel free to
send another my way. I’m always happy to help.
