Picture this: you just got back to your Disney hotel room after a perfect evening in Magic Kingdom, then you turn on your TV and settle in for a well-earned rest. We could get used to that feeling! If only we could do it every day, right?
Is it just us, or do you also find yourself thinking about your next Disney vacation while you’re still on your CURRENT Disney vacation? After a busy day in the parks, we’re already brainstorming our plans for next year’s visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. If you, like us, can’t help but daydream about the next trip (and the next, and the next, and the next), Disney’s upcoming promotion was MADE for you.
Before the Disney parks shut down in 2020, Disney was known to offer bounceback deals or Resort Future Stay offers. A bounceback offer is a limited-time deal presented to guests currently on vacation. In the past, Disney offered a discount at select Disney World hotels if guests booked another trip by a set deadline within their current hotel stay. Now, for the first time in a LONG time, Resort Future Stay offers are returning!
Disney announced three different discounts ranging from 25%-35% off future hotel stays:
- Guests can save up to 25% off Value Resorts
- Guests can save up to 30% off Moderate Resorts
- Guests can save up to 35% off Deluxe Resorts & Deluxe Villas
The bounceback offers apply to most dates in 2024, including:
- January 7-10, 2024
- January 15-18, 2024
- January 21-25, 2024
- January 28 – February 1, 2024
- February 4-8, 2024
- February 11-14, 2024
- February 19-22, 2024
- February 25 – March 16, 2024
- March 31 – May 23, 2024
- May 27 – August 29, 2024
- September 2-30, 2024
- October 27-31, 2024
- November 25-27, 2024
- December 1-24, 2024
Starting July 5th, 2023, Disney stated that guests may receive an email on their checkout date or find in-room communication about new Resort Future Stay offers. Look out for more information on your in-room TV or in a pamphlet!
These offers will only be available to book over the phone and must be booked within 7 days from the date of checkout. To book, guests can dial extension 8844 from their in-room phone, call 407-934-7639, or contact a travel agent to book a new reservation.

I’ve always regretted not using that discount in the past; it’s trivial to cancel if you end up not wanting the reservation (as long as you’re booking directly from Disney).
Ryan Wilson says
I literally just asked the front desk about this when I checked out on June 9th. They said to add it to the comments of my survey. I guess there will be no retroactive period for this offer (finger’s crossed)?
Eric L Erickson says
I’m really glad to see this “bounceback deal” return, but I’m disappointed that it is NOT for continuous dates. Generally, it seems to omit specials on Fridays & Saturdays, & some weeks it is only for 4 days. Unfortunately, this won’t even begin to cover my normal 12-night Disney vacations as it once did.
RobinS says
You don’t need to post this, but has anybody noticed that you cannot book a single reservation for breakfast for any restaurant on September 5. Initially we noticed this glitch when we tried to schedule our reservations for our upcoming Disney vacation and it was the only day we couldn’t book. Originally you couldn’t book breakfast lunch or dinner. However, it looks like they got the glitch fixed for lunch and dinner but you still can’t book any breakfasts! I’ve never seen this before, and I’ve booked many times through Disney for many different vacations. I’ve tried calling the restaurant directly and they concurred, as well as two different agents at Disney on two separate days that there are no restaurants on this day that have any reservations at this point. We’re hoping the glitch gets fixed at the 60 day mark, but it sure is strange to not be able to book one particular meal at any restaurant on a given day.
Carolyn says
Bounceback deal for guests during 2023 is great, BUT I have already booked for 2024 which means there are only a certain number of rooms offered @ a discount, which means there probably won’t be any left for a discount for us who have already booked for 2024. Seems a bit unfair to me.
Louise Batot says
It doesn’t seem fair for DVC members not to be offered a similar deal and savings.
Kathy says
Whenever I tried to do this in the past, there were no reservations availble for my weeklong stays.
