food IS a theme park
When you’re choosing a Disney World park to go to based on the rides alone, you really can’t go wrong with going to Hollywood Studios.
Hollywood Tower Hotel
You’ve got some of the top rides at this park – Rise of the Resistance, Slinky Dog Dash, Rock ‘n’ Rollercoaster, Tower of Terror, and the list keeps on going. Speaking of the Tower of Terror, we think there’s a couple of new rules that could be added to this ride, so let’s go over them!
Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!
Magic Kingdom
Disney World’s average wait times were pretty stable this week, but there was a new wait times champion as Avatar: Flight of Passage retook it’s familiar spot at the top of the leaderboard. But that wasn’t all: one Magic Kingdom attraction reported a 53-minute average wait time. YIKES!
The opening of the new Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is finally here!
Island Tower
We’ve been so excited for about ever since it was announced, and now we’re finally getting a chance to step inside for the first time. While this is a Disney Vacation Club (DVC) tower, anyone can book a stay here, and there are tons of new amenities to explore, like the new Wailulu Bar & Grill! Come with us to take a look inside this new restaurant for the first time!
After a long day in the Disney World theme parks, you deserve a break. What better place to relax than the pool?
Welcome to Disney’s NEW Island Tower!
One of the biggest perks of staying at a Disney World hotel is the access to the amazing POOLS at each resort. Speaking of hotels, one of Disney World’s newest — and arguably most controversial — hotels is about to open. The new DVC Island Tower at the Polynesian Village Resort has received mixed responses from many Disney fans due to its modern design. However, there’s one part of the new hotel that’s received near-universal praise ever since the planning stages: the pool! Join us as we take a look at the brand-new pool area at Disney’s Island Tower Resort.
Everyone stay calm, it is finally happening! After watching construction progress next to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort for what feels like forever, we are FINALLY getting to step foot inside the new Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
Island Tower
While the brand-new hotel doesn’t officially open until December 17th, 2024, we are getting a sneak peek inside this new hotel. We will be checking out some of the new rooms and exploring the SKY TERRACES.
The new year is coming up FAST!
Cinderella Castle
We’re about halfway through December, and Christmas is coming up in just a few short days, which means 2025 is just around the corner. If you’re celebrating at Disney World, we hope you’re prepared for some major crowds, as Christmas, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day are some of the busiest days at the parks. When it’s busy, grabbing Lightning Lanes can be a great way to skip the long lines, and Disney’s new Lightning Lane Premier Pass is one of the three options for doing that. So, as 2025 approaches, let’s take a look at which days SO FAR will be the cheapest to purchase this new Lightning Lane pass!
Everything is worth celebrating in Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
Big and small occasions are worthy of being celebrated if you’re at Disney World. Disney hands out “I’m Celebrating” pins to guests for pretty much any reason, and this week, we’re going to have to grab one to celebrate this small update at Magic Kingdom! Will you also be celebrating the return of a special treehouse at the Most Magical Place on Earth? Catch us climbing all over this tree this week.
Let’s take a little trip, shall we? We’re headed to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to preview the brand-new Disney Vacation Club Island Tower.
Island Tower
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is home to a new Disney Vacation Club property called the Island Tower! According to Disney, this new addition “will immerse you in the captivating stories and unique cultures of the islands,” and while it’s been a little controversial, now we get to step inside for the first time and see for ourselves if it’s worth the price. We’ve checked out the grounds, the amenities, and the dining options, but now it’s time to explore one of the most important parts of the hotel — the rooms!
It’s not too late to do a little holiday shopping! If you’ve got a Disney fan to buy for this year, we know exactly where to shop for a great last-minute gift they’re sure to love.
