Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Allison! I’m excited to know that you have a plan in the works to visit the Walt Disney World Resort! Thanks for stopping by with your question about
Disney Springs Resort Area hotels.
Guests staying at Disney Springs Resort Area Hotels can definitely enjoy the benefit of making
FastPass+ selections 60 days before their planned visit. They can also enjoy Extra Magic Hours, additional time at a theme park each day before it opens or after it closes to the general public, and free transportation to and from the theme parks.
Allison, being within walking distance of
Disney Springs is a great advantage, because there is so much fun to be had at the open-air mall. There are lots of great stores and amazing restaurants. I just had the pleasure of dining at Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ last Fall and I loved every bite of my meal!
There are a few things to remember about your benefits. Guests staying at Disney Springs Resort Area hotels do not receive complimentary MagicBands, won't have access to Disney's Magical Express and are required to pay for parking at Walt Disney World Resort theme parks.
I hope this information is helpful to you. Feel free to come back to see us with any other questions you may have.
Have a magical visit!
Veronica
