Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Melissa!
I absolutely love
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa, which is a good thing since it is my home resort. Not only is the resort fantastic, with some
great dining options,
fun swimming pools and beautiful landscapes, it is just a quick walk to
Disney Springs where you can find some of the
best restaurants, tons of
great shopping, and
exciting nightlife! I see that you will be arriving in September, a fun time in Walt Disney World as many of the new attractions for 2020 will have opened by that time; including the first Disney attraction to star Mickey Mouse and his friends,
Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure at
Epcot. The 2020 dates have not been released yet, but historically
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will be available during your stay. This is one of my favorite events at Magic Kingdom, so be sure to check back to see when the dates are officially released.
I had the privilege of staying in a newly renovated 1-Bedroom Villa in Congress Park during my stay at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa in October. It was incredible, with so many beautiful touches that make the villa feel like a home away from home. A Cast Member informed me today that there is not any specific information regarding the completion of the refurbishment or the areas refurbished thus far, only that “some areas of Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa will be refurbished over the coming year.” I recommend that you make a request for a newly refurbished villa with your reservation. Please keep in mind when making the request, that like all requests, it is not a guarantee that you will be assigned to a refurbished villa, but the Front Desk Cast Members will do their best to honor it.
I hope you have a magical vacation and a wonderful stay at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa!
