Hello Tammy,
Thanks so much for sending another fantastic question to us today! We always love to hEAR from you.
You must be getting so excited! December is such a magical time to visit Walt Disney World...it seems everywhere you turn, there are holiday decorations, treats, music and special events to celebrate the holidays. You're going to have an amazing time!
I love your idea of setting aside a day to tour the holiday decorations at the Disney Resort hotels. When I read your question, I was reminded of a great article I read on this very topic last year. You can find that article on the independent site blog.touringplans.com by searching for "The Ultimate Walt Disney World Holidays Tour." While the author did make stops at the theme parks during her day, you could easily modify your plan to focus just on the hotels. As you make your plans, I'd also recommend keeping an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for updates on this year's plans for holiday decorations and events on property.
I also wanted to mention two tours that you might enjoy as part of your visit -
Disney's Yuletide Fantasy and
Disney's Holiday D-Lights. Both offer special experiences that can only be enjoyed during the holiday season.
Wishing you a holly-jolly good time, Tammy! Please write back if I can help answer any other questions as you put the last of the pixie dust on your holiday vacation plans.
