10 Magical Reasons to Stay on Disney Property

With so many accommodations available to travelers today I wanted to make a list of 10 reasons to stay on Disney property.  When my family first started visiting Walt Disney World, we would always stay in a condo or hotel off property.  It involved waking up extra early to drive to a restaurant to eat breakfast, fighting traffic to the Parks, then fighting traffic at the end of the day to find a restaurant to eat dinner...with 2 cranky children and 2 cranky parents.

Our very first stay on property was at Coronado Springs~  all of those prior unfun things disappeared~ a whole new vacation experience opened up to us, and we vowed we would never stay off property again. 

Here is the World that opened up to us~ some of the magic YOU will be able to experience by staying on property. 

#10  FREE GROUND TRANSPORTATION  that starts at Orlando International Airport transferring you and your luggage to the doorstep of your resort on Disney's Magical Express.  Various modes of transportation get you to your destinations on property via the monorail, boat, bus, and now for $20 the Minnie Vans available through the Lyft app.


#9 PET FRIENDLY RESORTS are available now!  That is super important to a lot of people!

#8 EXTRA MAGIC HOURS are a great way to avoid the long lines of some of your favorite rides...come on...on our last trip the Magic Kingdom had night time extra magic hours until midnight and we walked on Splash Mountain, Haunted Mansion, Flying Dumbo, and PETER PAN!! Extra magic hours happen early in the morning or after normal park closing times and vary by park and day.  

#7 WIDE RANGE OF PRICE POINTS for every family vacation budget without compromising on quality. 

#6 PACKAGE DELIVERY TO YOUR RESORT from all that shopping you are sure to do!  Who wants to carry that around all day??

#5 OUT OF THIS WORLD SWIMMING POOLS are a part of every single Disney Resort.  Making time to unwind at the pool is a must do in our humble little opinion.  In all my years I have never seen an unhappy child at the pool.


#4 EXTRA MAGICAL ENVIRONMENT is all around you when you stay on property~ from movie nights on the lawn, campfires with Chip and Dale, nighttime animal watching, jogging trails, in room baby sitting, dancing with Cinderella and Prince Charming every afternoon at the Grand Floridian, fishing, bicycle rentals along the Boardwalk, proximity to the Parks....it's all there!


#3 EASY ACCESS TO FABULOUS FOOD AND SNACKS is readily available at the resorts. Food courts provide nutritious, speedy and affordable  meals for families in a hurry to get to the action. Wanting to take a breath- sit down, and enjoy a more relaxing meal with your family or even a date night??  There are over 50 Table service restaurants to sit back and relax at and over 90 Quick Service locations to grab that quick meal.



 #2 THE DISNEY DINING PLAN is a benefit available ONLY to guests staying on property. I love the idea of choosing between the 3 Dining Plans available before I leave for vacation, have my meals paid for in advance,  and then being able to use my dining credits at the places our family enjoys the most...and we have our favorites! With the tap of your MagicBand you are on your way. You won't go hungry on a Disney Dining Plan as the plan includes combinations of quick service, table service, and snacks depending on the plan you choose.

#1 DISNEY'S QUALITY CUSTOMER SERVICE is the best in the industry- look at all the awards they have received!  From the moment you check in and are welcomed HOME friendly,  knowledgeable Cast Members are available to give you a MAGICAL EXPERIENCE. Some people call it PIXIE DUST.  I like to believe that Walt would have called it just being good people...I truly believe he would be proud of what bears his name.

"To all who come to this Happy place...WELCOME"

XOXOXO

Where To Stay Where To Stay

So many places to stay so little time!! 

Let me break down the numbers for you~ 

3 Resorts on property and they are all amazing- offering you ALL that you would expect from a Disney resort. 

41 Good Neighbor Hotels- these are off property, independently owned, hotels that have met Disney standards.  A PLUS to booking at a Good Neighbor hotel  with a travel agent that specializes in Disney...ahem....I happen to know someone...is that  I am able to book these hotels as a package and get you some really nice perks that make it almost like staying on property!   Come on!  There at 41 to choose from ranging from economy to suites. 

There is someplace for EVERYONE and every PRICE POINT.

I would like to give you a tour of the Disneyland Resorts.  Sound Good?

First Stop~  DISNEY'S GRAND CALIFORNIAN










The Grand Californian is just exceptionally lovely.  This 4 diamond resort features standard rooms that will accommodate up to 5 guests, suites, and villas.  It features 3 restaurants- one of which is Napa Rose- acclaimed for it's wines and exceptional food,  A lounge and  massive lobby complete with some of the most relaxing piano playing in the evening will blow you away.  One really special bonus?  A private entrance into Disney's California Adventure! 

Next stop~  Paradise Pier




Paradise Pier Hotel is Disney's 3 diamond resort that features rooms with a beachfront theme in standard rooms that accommodate up to 5 guests and suites up to 6 guests.  Disney's PCH Grill is a full service restaurant that features a fun character breakfast every morning!  Even big kids like it:)


I saved my favorite for last~  The Disneyland Hotel











Two words.  CLASSIC DISNEY.  I love that standard rooms in every Disney resort can accommodate up to 5 guests.  There are some pretty amazing suites available if you prefer- The Pirates of the Caribbean, Mickey Mouse Penthouse, Fairy Tale Suite, Big Thunder Suite, and the Adventureland Suite. 

I hope you are hungry because you will want to check out the 5 restaurants on property.  It wouldn't be the Disneyland Hotel without a character breakfast, so how about Goofy's Kitchen?  Don't forget Tangaroa Terrace and Trader Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar.  You will think you've been wisked away to the islands!  Last but not least is Steakhouse 55- Award winning, elegant dining where you will see classic pictures of famous celebrities...especially our very favorite celebrity~  Walt Disney himself.


Why stay on property? 

Extra Magic Hours every single morning!

You are right next door to both Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure!

How about character wake up calls??

Pinocchio's Workshop at the Grand Californian- aka the best babysitter on the planet- is available to all guests for additional fee.  Perfect for enjoying a night out at Napa Rose or Steakhouse 55!

Package delivery to your room from all of that shopping you will want to do.  Trust me on this one.

And most importantly Disney's quality and service that you have come to know!
