Hi Kay! Thanks for stopping by planDisney! You’ve brought a great question! Guests often ask us to clarify the
difference between 60-day advanced dining reservation practices for Guests staying off and on property.
Guests staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel, in the Disney Resorts Collection, can make reservations 60-days before their vacation arrival date. The bonus perk is that they can make reservations for up to 10-days of their vacation! The best way of knowing if a resort hotel is in the Disney Resorts Collection is that the prefix “Disney’s” appears before the name of the resort. For example, “Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort” or “Disney’s Art of Animation Resort.”
Guests staying at any other resort, including the resort you will be visiting, can make reservations 60-days before the date you wish to reserve dining. There is no perk of being able to make reservations for the “+10” days at these resorts.
Kay, one perk that I did notice about your resort hotel is that you will be able to take advantage of the
Early Theme Park Entry benefit! This perk allows Guests (with valid theme park admission) to enter any of the Disney Parks, any day, 30 minutes before the official park opening time! That is a great bonus!
I hope this information is helpful as you prepare to make your magical Disney Dining reservations!
Dreams do come true!
