food IS a theme park
We love staying at Disney World hotels! Don’t you?
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
The hotels at Disney World offer so much fun, magic, and immersion no matter which option you choose (value, moderate, or deluxe). They really are great — except for the times when they’re not! So we wanted to find out what your thoughts were about the cringiest things you’ve ever seen in Disney World hotels. We asked and boy, did you deliver!
Disney World is making quite a few changes these days.
Cinderella Castle
Several hotels are getting refurbishments or additions, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is under construction in Magic Kingdom, and we’ve got quite a few expansions to look forward to in the future. But not everyone is happy with the latest news!
After Universal Orlando made a TON of announcements and gave new details about its upcoming Epic Universe park, the third park at the resort, many believe that Disney World needs to step it up and add a new park.

Some analysts believe Disney will announce a fifth park soon (although it hasn’t happened yet, even after Disney’s Q1 2024 earnings call), but what exactly should that park be? What should its theme be? We decided to go to the Disney experts, aka YOU, our DFB Readers to see what you thought. Let’s just say, you have some strong opinions about the matter!
We love eating at the Disney World hotel restaurants! Don’t you?
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Since the pandemic, Disney World hotels and restaurants have reopened one by one. Recently, we finally got word that one holdout is finally reopening, so we wanted to find out what your thoughts were about the changes that are coming to that restaurant when it returns. We asked and boy, did you deliver!
If you know anything about EPCOT than you know it’s all about festivals. And Disney has made a BIG change to one of it’s festivals this year.
EPCOT
That festival is the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival, which brings SO much to Disney World, including gorgeous topiaries, a lot of AMAZING food, and the Garden Rocks concert series. However, this year, you’re going to have a lot less time to enjoy this festival because it’s going to end 36 days earlier than it did last year, which could basically upend your Disney World plans.
The Disney World Parks have changed a lot since COVID-19 shut them down.
Magic Kingdom
It’s been nearly four years since the closures, yet some of the major changes put in place still remain. While things like park pass reservation requirements, park hopping restrictions, and lack of the Disney Dining Plan were removed on January 9th, 2024, there are some changes that seem like they’ll be around for a while, and our readers aren’t too happy with some of those. We asked them on Facebook to share with us what they thought the most FRUSTRATING new Disney World change has been, and the answer wasn’t at all surprising.
Quick! Go stand next to a fan — things are going to get heated. We’re asking a question long-debated among Disney World fans, and it could spark some intense debate.
Spaceship Earth
Buckle up, we’re asking our readers: Which is the BEST method of transportation in Disney World? Do you prefer the new but lighting-averse Skyliner? Are you team ol’ reliable, a.k.a. the bus? Maybe you like the wind in your hair as you sail on a boat? Or maybe you’re a purist, and you love the iconic Disney World monorail? OK, it’s time to see which Disney transportation method comes out on top.
Anytime Disney World does something new, it could cause controversy among fans.
EPCOT
There was a lot of outcry when Disney announced it was closing Splash Mountain and re-imagining the ride as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Many folks are still not happy about park pass reservations (the good news is they’re going away soon for most Disney World visitors). Genie+ is always a source of contention. There is one NEW thing in EPCOT, though, that we asked YOU, our readers, about, and it turns out, it’s not as controversial as we thought.
When’s the last time you’ve been to Magic Kingdom?
