Hi Jeremy!
I am so excited to hear that you will be staying at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside because it's the perfect place for your vacation "home"! I love this Disney Resort hotel because it has such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Plus, you will have convenient access to Disney Springs using the convenient boat transportation. And be sure to visit Ol’ Man Island, one of the
pools at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside, because it's the perfect spot to spend a day in the water during your vacation!
You are correct that Disney Resort hotel Guests now pay a nightly
parking fee when parking a car at their Disney Resort hotel during their stay. However, Disney Resort hotel Guests still receive complimentary parking at each of the theme parks, so you are free to drive your car to the theme parks as you like during your vacation without having to pay any additional parking fees!
Jeremy, there are so many incredible things that you will be able to enjoy during your summer vacation to Walt Disney World Resort! Be sure to head to
Magic Kingdom so you can join in
Mickey & Minnie's Surprise Celebration for their 90th birthday. Also, you will definitely want to visit
Toy Story Land. There's nothing like shrinking to the size of a toy when you visit Andy's backyard to play with some of everyone's favorite toys! Finally, keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog as you finalize your plans to get the latest news and announcements.
T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
