You’ve booked your ticket to the most magical place on earth! Now comes the exciting part: planning your stay at Walt Disney World. Choosing where to stay can be a bit tricky with over 25 resorts right on Disney property and tons of nearby hotels, but fear not—there’s a perfect spot for every budget and style. As someone who’s been a Disney fan almost her entire life and grew up in Florida, I’ve stayed at a bunch of these places, so I know the ins and outs pretty well.
When friends and family ask me for advice on their Disney trips, I always start with a few key questions: Which parks are they planning to spend the most time at? Do they care more about location or having a bigger room? Are they planning to hang out at the hotel or just crash there at night? And, of course, what’s their budget?
Disney hotels are divided into three main categories: Deluxe, Moderate, and Value. Deluxe Resorts have bigger rooms, prime locations, and great dining options. Value Resorts are more budget-friendly but might have smaller rooms and longer commutes to the parks. Moderate Resorts fall somewhere in between.
Think about what theme you want, how close you want to be to certain parks, the room size you need, transportation options, dining choices, and other activities. Whether you’re traveling with little kids, looking for a luxurious stay, or trying to keep things budget-friendly, there’s a Disney hotel that’s just right for you. So, grab your Mickey ears, and let’s find the perfect spot to make your Disney trip magical!
