Hello George,
Welcome to planDisney! We are so glad popped by planDisney with your question. How exciting that you are planning a
Walt Disney World Resort holiday!
You will love
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa! Currently, refurbishment is in process, and in every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. The fun in this instance is the amazing Mary Poppins-themed room updates. They are absolutely splendid with whimsically supercalifragilisticexpialidocious touches!
I checked with a Walt Disney World Cast Member about the refurbishment timeline. She checked for us and found that no end date for the refurbishment is currently scheduled. I did confirm that outside, exterior work continues, and scaffolding extends to the side of the main building near The Villas at Grand Floridian pool. The good news is that Conch Key, Boca Chica, Big Pine Key, The Villas at Grand Floridian, Sugar Loaf and Sago Cay room refurbishment is complete. Now, the helpful Cast Member could not confirm when renovations in the Main Building will be complete but assured me that all construction occurs during daytime hours and most amenities remain available to Guests.
George, one of my favorite features of the Grand Floridian Resort, is the wonderful transportation options. One of my top tips is to take the
Walt Disney World monorail to
Magic Kingdom park and after watching
Happily Ever After light up the sky above Cinderella Castle, take the peaceful walkway or the
water taxi across
Seven Seas Lagoon back to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Then, before retiring to your practically perfect room for the night, stop by
Enchanted Rose and enjoy a nightcap!
I hope this will help you as you make plans for your holiday, George. If you have other questions,
please stop back by and let me know. All of us at planDisney are happy to help!
Wishing you many magical memories,
Shannon
