Hi Marjorie,
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I just had to grab your question, as the Resorts are my jam! They are literally my favorite “attraction.” I also think it’s super smart to try and plan for some “homemade” meals while on vacation. We tend to eat our breakfast in our room for a healthy start to the day, and my kiddos love having their favorite snacks waiting when they come back from the Parks.
So, let’s get some suggestions for Resorts with full kitchens for you! As a rule, all of the
Disney Vacation Club 1-Bedroom Villas and larger will have full kitchens. If this is your first visit to Walt Disney World Resort, I would suggest you stay at one of the Magic Kingdom Resorts or at
Disney’s Riviera Resort (it is brand new and on the Disney Skyliner line).
The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa,
Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, and
Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort are on the Monorail, so that gives you quick access to both EPCOT and Magic Kingdom Park. I also would include
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge in this grouping, as it is a quick boat ride away from the Park.
Speaking of wilderness, the
Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort are camping at it’s best! You have a full kitchen, bath, and bedroom that includes a bunk bed, which would be perfect for your family. If you want to up the “glamping” factor, consider the
Treehouse Villas at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa! They sleep up to nine, have two full bedrooms and bathrooms, along with a full kitchen and outdoor grill.
Disney’s All-Star Music Resort recently underwent a magical transformation, and the
Family Suites are incredible! They come with a microwave, sink, full-sized fridge, and coffee service. So I would call it a “three-quarters” kitchen! I also love the
Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. They have a kitchenette, though, so no full kitchen.
Marjorie, I hope this list helps you find your perfect vacation accommodation. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to come back. We are all EARs!
