Saving some cash when you go to Walt Disney World probably seems to be a contradiction in terms, but with some smart planning and preparation, visitors can have an enjoyable trip to Orlando without running up a huge credit card debt.
The DisneyWorld Resort is definitely huge, covering almost 47 square miles just outside Kissimmee, Florida. There are four gigantic theme parks, Epcot, MGM Studios, the Animal Kingdom, and the Magic Kingdom. With so much to see, visitors usually spend at least a week just to see everything. Disney has built more than 12 resorts just to house visitors to the parks.
Obviously, Disney executives recognize that folks are looking for different things when visiting the area. For this reason, they have hotels that fit everyone’s budget. Hotels are classified into Value, Moderate, and Deluxe levels. Value is sort of the Disney way of saying cheap, but customers will not be let down, as the Disney Value resorts are nice and comfortable. Moderate hotels are one step up, promising bigger living areas and full service dining on the property.
Deluxe resorts at Disney World are top-of-the-line accommodations built to satisfy and placate any visitor. Many of the resorts such as the Contemporary Resort and Yacht Club are along the monorail, so you can easily ride to Epcot without having a car or taking a bus. Guest accommodations are also larger, and the Disney environment is always magical.
What then is the best way to pick a Disney World Resort? Well would you rather spend your hard earned cash on gifts or indulge yourself with the best, remember you are on vacation? Value rooms like the Pop Century Hotel can cost anywhere from $75 to $120 a night, while Deluxe Hotel start from $225 and go up from there. As you can see, if you multiply that by 6 to 11 nights, you could end up spending hundreds more just for a nicer place.
The option belongs to the visitor, but whatever you decide, you can be sure Disney World employees will do their best to be sure you and your family have a great time on your trip away from home.
