Hiya Ashlee, and thanks for returning to
planDisney with your question!
I’m excited to hEAR that you’re planning ahead for your 2023 vacation to the
Happiest Place on Earth! Currently,
Disneyland Resort Hotel reservations and
Vacation Packages are only available through December of 2022, and 2023 dates haven’t opened up just yet. Vacation Packages and Resort Hotel reservations tend to open for the following year by the end of summer, typically by the end of August. So, I recommend checking the website or checking back with us in June or July to see if we have any updates we can pass along!
As for
theme park tickets and
park reservations, you can start making theme park reservations up to 120 days in advance, subject to availability, so you have some time to wait on booking those. You’ll be able to choose between a One Park Per Day ticket or a Park Hopper ticket. With the One Park Per Day option, you’ll select one theme park, and stay there the entire day. With a Park Hopper, you’ll select one park to start in, and then “hop” to the other park any time after 1:00 PM.
Have you thought about where you’d like to stay, and what you’d like to eat? My little Mouseketeers are obsessed with the
Disneyland Hotel thanks to the thrilling monorail waterslides. Personally, I adore
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa thanks to its convenient access to
Disney California Adventure Park.
As for food, there are so many wonderful options for
dining reservations, so I recommend checking out the menus ahead of time. Currently, dining reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance. Some of my favorite spots include
Lamplight Lounge,
Blue Bayou Restaurant, and
GCH Craftsman Grill.
If you have any other planning questions as your trip gets closer, please don’t hesitate to return to planDisney, Ashlee… we love making your magical Disney dreams come true!
Happy planning!
