Welcome to planDisney, Kate.
Your magical adventure to The Most Magical Place on Earth is just around the corner! How exciting that you’re planning a split stay at multiple
Disney Resort hotels. My family has done this on our last few trips, and it’s always such a thrill to experience the unique magic each resort has to offer—all in one vacation. Plus, there’s truly nothing like staying right in the heart of the magic!
Whenever any of my friends ask me about planning a trip to Walt Disney World, the first thing I tell them is: Stay at a Disney hotel! The second thing I tell them is: Stay at a Disney hotel! The Disney hotels truly immerse you in the magic and provide an extra sprinkling of pixie dust to your trip with all the amazing benefits.
These benefits start the day you check in to your hotel and can also be enjoyed on the day you check out of your hotel. Every Guest staying at a Disney Resort hotel can take advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry. This 30-minute head start enables you to ride some of the more popular attractions before crowds get busy. Guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resort Hotels or Disney Deluxe Villas can enjoy the extra benefit of
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours in select theme parks on select nights. You can take advantage of the extended hours benefit on both your check-in and check-out days when staying at a Deluxe Resort. However, this benefit does not extend to your stay at a Value or Moderate Resort. Whenever I do a split stay, I always try to time my stay at a Deluxe Resort on a night when Extended Evening Theme Park Hours are available.
I hope that's helpful, Kate. Thanks for stopping by planDisney.
