GOOD NEWS! A Hotel Transportation Perk Has RETURNED in Disney World

By Leave a Comment

One thing that we LOVE about Disney World is how many modes of transportation you can use to get around the resort.

Disney Springs

You’ve got good old reliable Disney buses, the fun Monorail, and the thrilling Skyliner. But one transportation option some guests miss out on is the boats, which are probably the most relaxing form of Disney transportation. Well, a boat transportation option between Disney Springs and some Disney hotels was temporarily suspended, but we’re happy to report that it’s officially back!

Nope, Disney World’s hotels have a different fatal flaw and it’s something you’ll need to know about before booking.

Universal Orlando

Disney World is certainly a magical place, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t hit some bumps in the road at times!

Disney’s Old Key West Resort

Rides can go down unexpectedly, shows can get canceled or delayed due to weather issues or other problems, and more unexpected problems can arise. But we have to admit that what happened on a recent visit might be the BEST issue we’ve ever seen happen in Disney World.

I’m Still Getting Asked About This Disney World Hotel Rule — Let’s Set the Record Straight

By 4 Comments

There are a lot of things you can do in Disney World outside the parks…and we mean a LOT.

Bungalows at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

Outside of the four main parks there are dozens of hotels, two water parks, Disney Springs, golf courses, mini golf courses, the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, and much more. It would take you weeks, possibly months, to do everything. But the good news is — you don’t have to be staying on property to knock most of those activities off your to-do list!
