food IS a theme park
Disney is in the process of creating a WHOLE new set of Disney Vacation Club (DVC) villas at the Polynesian Resort, and we’ve been following the construction of the project since it began.
Polynesian Village Resort
The new villas are set to open later this year, but Disney hadn’t yet shared an official opening timeline — until now. Not only that, but we also just got a NEW look and more details about this new hotel expansion — so let’s dive in!Â
If you had a $40,000 vehicle, you would never loan it out to a stranger for $50 when that stranger had no idea how to drive it and had no supervision, right? That, apparently, is one of the key differences between you and Disney World.
Bay Lake
Turns out, you can rent a pontoon boat and drive it around Bay Lake (that’s the one right in front of Magic Kingdom), and it’s SHOCKINGLY cheap. Like, cheaper than a meal at one of Disney World’s fancy signature dining restaurants. The price tag was a surprise in itself, but what came AFTER I rented the boat just made my jaw DROP.

If you’re always on the lookout for great Disney World deals, you’ve come to the right place!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve got you covered on all kinds of Disney World deals from airfare to lodging — and now there’s a BRAND-NEW deal that was just announced that could save you a bunch of money during an upcoming Disney World summer vacation!
Downtown Disney has been getting quite a bit of an overhaul, including getting MANY new restaurants (oh, yeah, you know we’re excited).
Paseo
Most recently, three of those new restaurants opened: Paseo, Centrico, and Tiendita, with all three restaurants having menus created by Michelin-starred Chef Carlos Gaytán. Okay, so that has us even MORE stoked. Well, we’ve had a chance to eat at Centrico and Tiendita, but we’re now getting a chance to dine at Paseo.
This might be the BEST DAY EVER!

We are FINALLY getting to visit The Snuggly Duckling! Our dreams have finally come true. Disney has brought the little restaurant with our favorite ruffians and thugs to life at Fantasy Springs in Tokyo Disney. Fantasy Springs officially opens on June 6th, but we got to drop in to sing about our dreams a little early, and boy are we glad we did! Let’s take a look!
If there’s ONE accessory we recommend you bring to Disney World, it’s a water bottle!
Water bottles for days!
Water bottles can be an absolute lifesaver in the parks, especially in the summer. Sure, you can get free cups of ice water at quick service restaurants, but you don’t want to keep stopping to get those when you can just fill up your bottle and go! That’s why we’re rounding up our picks for the BEST water bottles for Disney World. Let’s dive in.
We just found your new favorite Disney World water bottle!
Target
We find cute new Disney products at Target all the time — both in-person and online. What makes it even better is when those cute things are actually super useful, too! Since staying hydrated is SUPER important at Disney World, a water bottle is 100% essential for your upcoming trip. If you want to stay on the Disney theme, you should check out these cute character-inspired water bottles that you can get right now online!
If you are a fan of All-Star Movies Resort, we have some good and bad news for you. The good news is that one of the amenities will be getting a refresh, but the bad news is that means it will need to suspend some operations for a bit.Â
All-Star Movies
All-Star Movies Resort is a value resort located at Walt Disney World, that is perfect if you are looking for a more inexpensive hotel option with many of the great perks that Disney World hotel guests get. It is part of a trio of All-Star Resorts which also includes All-Star Sports and All-Star Music.
We’re having the time of our lives in Tokyo Disney, and we can’t believe we’re getting a special look at Fantasy Springs before it opens to the public in June!
Peter Pan’s Never Land Adventure
Not only did we get to ride the new attractions Disney has created, but we’re also getting a look at some of the special merchandise guests will be able to purchase in this new land. And this new popcorn bucket has our jaws on the FLOOR!
Throughout the year, there are events where Disney makes some pretty big announcements.

Of course, we get TONS of announcements from events like the D23 Ultimate Fan Event. We also generally get some announcements when Disney hosts its quarterly earnings calls. However, a BIG event is coming up soon where we could learn a LOT more about Disney movies, television shows, and more SOON.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
