Greetings, Colleen!
Dining at
Disney Springs is a truly special experience. There are so many restaurants to choose from, and my husband and I change our minds so many times when we're planning our vacation because we want to eat at so many different places! Right now, my favorite restaurant at Walt Disney World Resort is actually located at Disney Springs, and it's
The BOATHOUSE. If you love incredible seafood, a gorgeous water view, and a nice glass of California wine, then it's is going to be a favorite for you as well.
Getting to Disney Springs is really easy! If you're coming from any of the four theme parks, the
bus transportation that takes you straight there begins at 4:00 p.m., so plan on making your dining reservation for some time after that. You can check the bus arrival times when you're there by using the
My Disney Experience app! The ride to Disney Springs is pretty short, but I like to allow myself about 90 minutes of travel time to make sure I get to my dining reservations on time.
When it comes time to head back out after dinner, there isn't bus service directly from Disney Springs to the theme parks but it's still really easy to get where you want to go. You can use
Minnie Van service to be chauffeured straight there by a friendly Disney Cast Member, or you can take a bus from Disney Springs to a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel and make your way into the theme parks from there.
Have a magical day, Colleen!
