food IS a theme park
What if I told you that you could stay STEPS away from Disney World in a hotel that offers all the perks you’ll get at a Disney official hotel, free breakfast, free drinks, and fireworks views all for a fraction of the cost?
Drury Plaza Hotel
Interested? I thought you might be…
You’ve probably heard nearly all the Disney World dining tips the world has to offer — and to be fair, we probably told ’em to ya.
EPCOT
But, what if we said there were a few secrets we still had hiding in our back pocket for ways you can actually save a bit of cash when chowing down? You better believe it, because friends don’t lie — and since we’re BFFs, we’re telling you what Disney World won’t about its restaurants.
Have you ever been to Disney World’s FANCIEST hotel?
Four Seasons Resort
Nope, we’re not talking about the Grand Floridian or Disney’s Contemporary Resort, we’re talking about something a little more exclusive! The Four Seasons Resort is one of the nicest places you can stay on Disney World property, and it’s even located inside of the Golden Oak neighborhood (yes, that’s Disney’s own neighborhood where the houses are $$$$). Recently, we made a trip out to the Four Seasons for a media event, and we’re taking you along with us!
Things are seriously heating up around Disney World and that can only mean one thing — it’s almost time for Halloween!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party sign
We’ve learned a ton of details about Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Disney World this year, and tickets are already starting to sell out. This special event puts visitors in the middle of a Halloween party in Magic Kingdom, complete with its own fireworks, parade, characters, and snacks! And, we finally know just when during the party we’ll be able to check it all out.
We’re always on the search for something delicious to eat.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
What’s even better is when we find something that’s not only delicious, but it’s also safe to eat for those of you who are vegan, vegetarian, or simply don’t want to eat meat while in the parks. Today’s search for some delicious vegan food brings us to Africa in Disney’s Animal Kingdom — to Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery. Kusafiri serves up coffee, breakfast pastries, and the occasional breakfast sandwich in the mornings, and for the rest of the day, you can find heartier options like flatbreads and fried pastries. We’ve tried both the breakfast options and the flatbreads and pastries in the past, and they didn’t disappoint. Now, we’re headed back to this quick-service eatery to see if the available vegan options are just as good. Let’s go!
Picture it: you’ve saved up your hard-earned cash and finally booked the Disney World vacation of your dreams. You think you’ve chosen the perfect hotel for you and your family, but then you arrive and find out…uh oh…it’s NOT at all what you expected. These things happen and can totally throw off your trip — but we can help.
Walt Disney World
We’ve covered all kinds of hotel news and info to help you make the best choice for your group — from a ranking of every Disney World hotel to a look at the WORST hotels for 2023, and everything in between. But today we’re taking a closer look at a few hotels that are NOT for everyone so you can be best prepared to make the right choice for your trip.
We’ve been to every single restaurant inside Magic Kingdom multiple times, and we know where the BEST places to eat are. But we also know some of the WORST spots.
Magic Kingdom
If you’re heading to Disney World soon, make sure you avoid these Magic Kingdom restaurants! [Read more…]
Which Disney World Resort hotel is the best fit for your family? What are your MUST-RIDE attractions in the theme parks? How many days should you plan to spend in Disney World?
The Walt Disney World Main Gate
Yep… there are LOTS of decisions that need to be made when it comes to planning a Walt Disney World vacation. And, with the 2024 return of the Disney Dining Plan for vacation packages, you’ve now got one more thing to consider: Is the Disney Dining Plan vacation add-on WORTH IT? [Read more…]
If there’s one Disney World park that’s the KING of unique souvenirs, it would have to be EPCOT!
EPCOT at Disney World
Just walk through the World Showcase alone and you’ll be able to find interesting snacks, clothes from around the world, and gadgets and gizmos aplenty! Each country pavilion tends to have its own merchandise that it’s known for, and usually, those items are pretty exclusive to that particular pavilion. However, we recently spotted one popular EPCOT souvenir at a Disney World hotel!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
