    I just wondered if the lake buena vista resort village and spa offered early entry to the parks?

    Greetings Angela and welcome to planDisney! 

    I bet you can’t wait for July to get here so you can pack up those Mickey and Minnie ears and walk down Main Street U.S.A. to get that amazing first glimpse of Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom!  

    Now to help you with your question. 

    The Lake Buena Vista Resort Village & Spa is a Walt Disney World Good Neighbor Hotel, but it does not offer early entry into the Walt Disney World theme parks as a benefit.  I called and talked with the front desk at the hotel to confirm that they do not offer this benefit.  They do offer complimentary theme park shuttle service with a promotion code that is provided upon check-in at the resort.   

    Angela, you might want to check out the Lightning Lane Multi Pass if you want to maximize your time in the parks.  We recently used the Multi Pass at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to make sure we were able to enjoy a day with a first time Walt Disney World guest!  It worked out great with an early ride on Slinky Dog Dash kick starting the day! 

    Also, in July it is toasty and warm in Florida! I recommend cooling towels for those hot days!  You can put them in your freezer the night before, and they will be ready to cool you off the next day!  Plus, don’t forget to hydrate!   

    Angela, I’m sure you are already excited about your trip!  Don’t forget when you do get to the magic to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two!
