Hi Michelle,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us a question! My family is made up of some pretty big Star Wars fans, big and small, so we’re really looking forward to visiting the planet of Baatu when
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opens in Walt Disney World Resort this August.
We’re also really looking forward to getting more details about the
Star Wars themed Walt Disney World Resort Hotel that is scheduled to be a part of this new land, too! Unfortunately, we don’t yet know when it’s going to open or what the various room options will be, quite yet. I haven’t even been able to get any information about whether it’s scheduled to open in 2020, either. My guess is that we should get more information as we get closer to the opening date for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge itself, although that is by no means certain.
Here’s what I recommend for your Summer 2020 vacation: keep checking the
Disney Parks Blog over the next few weeks to see when reservations for
Disney Resort Hotel Packages will be available for 2020. Make your reservation right away to lock in your first choice of dates and Walt Disney World Resort hotel. Then, if more information pops up about the new Star Wars themed Resort, and the room types fit your needs and budget, you’ll be able to adjust your plans to include it in your itinerary, accordingly.
Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions!
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
