Is a Walt Disney World Vacation Right for You?
Walt Disney World is a great fit for:
- Families with kids of all ages
- Multigenerational trips with varied needs
- Couples celebrating milestones
- Disney superfans who want to maximize their time
This destination offers unmatched flexibility, but planning ahead is essential to make the most of it.
Where to Stay at Walt Disney World
Walt Disney World has more than 25 on-site resorts across three categories:
- Value Resorts – Fun theming, great pools, and budget-friendly options (like Pop Century and Art of Animation)
- Moderate Resorts – More space, upgraded amenities, and themed experiences (like Caribbean Beach or Port Orleans)
- Deluxe Resorts – Premium locations, immersive theming, and convenient access to parks (like Grand Floridian or Animal Kingdom Lodge)
Staying on property gives you access to benefits like early park entry, free transportation, and more Disney magic throughout your stay. While off-property hotels are available and may work in certain cases, we typically recommend on-site resorts for the full experience and added convenience.
What to Know Before You Book
Planning a Walt Disney World vacation is more complex than ever:
- Which resort should you choose? (Value, Moderate, or Deluxe—each with its own perks.)
- How many park days do you need, and do you want Park Hopper?
- What is Genie+ and Lightning Lane? (Genie+ is a paid service that lets you skip the standby line for many attractions by reserving return times; Lightning Lane access to select rides may also require an additional purchase per ride.)
- What is the My Disney Experience app? (This free app is your key to planning and managing your trip—from mobile ordering meals and joining virtual queues to booking Genie+ selections and viewing wait times.)
- What is MagicBand+? (An optional wristband that can be used for park entry, Lightning Lane access, room charges, PhotoPass, and more. It offers convenience but isn’t required.)
- How early do you need to book dining or special experiences?
Our advisors walk you through all of it—from room types to park touring strategies—so you can book with confidence. And our planning support is included when you book your Disney vacation package with us.
