food IS a theme park
The Grand Floridian Bakery has done it again, y’all!
The Grand Floridian
The Cast Members at the Grand Floridian Bakery are truly artists. We’ve been inspired by some of the work they’ve created, which include chocolate sculptures of Cinderella Castle and the Grand Floridian gingerbread house. They are genuine masters of their craft.
February might have been a short month, but a LOT has happened at Disney World dining locations!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
There have been some over the top donuts, a lot of new boozy drinks, the coconut pineapple soft-serve swirl of our dreams, and even some new entrees. And we’re compiling the whole list here so you can stay up to date on all the restaurant menu updates at Disney World in February!
Valentine’s Day is long gone and St. Patrick’s Day lies ahead!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
That means it’s time to try out some NEW holiday eats and treats! We’ve already spotted the return of one of our FAVORITE Irish-influenced burgers in Disney Springs and now we’re trying a NEW St. Paddy’s Day treat.Â
Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras are over, so that means it’s time for the next holiday in Disney World!
Shamrock Shake!!
That’s right, we’re talking about St. Patrick’s Day! So far, we’ve seen special drinks at Starbucks in Disney Springs, one of our favorite seasonal burgers has returned, and we grabbed a Shamrock Shake in Disney World, but we have yet to see many green treats in Disney World.Â
We’re here to share all of our findings from our most recent trip to Disney’s monorail resorts!

We stopped by Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and Disney’s Contemporary Resort to check out any and all updates! Let’s check them all out.
If you’re thinking of booking a Disney World vacation in 2021 (especially for the 50th anniversary festivities!), you may notice one thing:Â not EVERY hotel is currently open!
Yacht and Beach Club
It can be hard to determine exactly which hotels are currently open, and which hotels have official reopening dates. But don’t sweat it, we’ve got you covered!
There are a lot of different hotels you can stay at in Disney World, and some are certainly pricier than others.
Grand Floridian
But, with some good deals and discounts, you might just be able to stay at the hotel of your dreams and still save some money. Now, we found a new deal for guests to take advantage of. But, to qualify to save money on your next stay, you must have already stayed in one of Disney World’s priciest hotels. Huh? We’ll explain.
A MAJOR Disney transportation option is currently unavailable.
Grand Floridian Monorail Station
While at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort Monorail Station today to head on over to Magic Kingdom, we were evacuated from the platform as BOTH monorail lines went down. Here’s what we know.
We found a princess-inspired snack in Disney World today!

Disney resorts often have incredible — and overlooked — eats. We’ve recently loved a seasonal cocktail from Disney’s Riviera Resort, some chips at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and Super Bowl cupcakes at BoardWalk Bakery. And today, we spotted some pastry puffs at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort that we just have to tell you about!
There’s so much to do at Disney World other than the parks!
Grand Floridian Resort Pool
You can visit Disney Springs, go golfing, or book a lunch reservation at one of the resorts. Or, you can take a short walk to your resort pool and spend the afternoon there! After all, the pools have their own unique features and special theming. In fact, some of them even have SECRETS. If you don’t stay on property at Disney, or if you just don’t spend a lot of time at the pools, you may not know these fun facts!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
