Hotels near Walt Disney World, Orlando

My family enjoys Disney’s magical experience. We carried a cooler backpack with plenty of water and snacks. I suggest getting there as early as you can. We a lot of lives and were able to experience rides by getting there early.

First of all, if you are visiting Walt Disney World - ALWAYS plan to arrive before rope drop (park opening) as you will be able to do more and enjoy your (most of the time unless new ride) favorite rides. I have grown up going to Disney since opening and also brought my kids up taking them there with annual passes (as a Floridian). Currently the situations have changed and Disney is quite out of reach on price range for locals. Seems they suffered during the COVID time - and now trying to double and triple their money in the following years. It's a shame because I love Walt Disney World - I feel bad for people that save all their money to bring their family for memorable vacations and spend more than their yearly mortgage and are unable to enjoy the new exciting ride experiences that have opened up - simply due to virtual queues that are booked before you get a change to open app. With that being said, do visit Disney World at least once or twice - it's a magic place in most instances and enjoy all four parks!

don't like being called friend by disney staff. I wouldn't have taken my family to this woke establishment if it weren't for my grand kids. next time I will go elsewhere with my family to a more family oriented resort.

Don’t go unless you are willing to pay thousands of dollars for 30 second rides or stand in stand by cues that are hot and miserable for kids and yourself. Plus the amount of money you pay to just get into the parks and only get to experience 2-3 rides per park and run from one side of the park to the other your entire day due to Genie+. You can’t leisurely experience the park like before and you miss out on shows or enjoying each land cause Genie has you moving all the time if you are a ride person. Disney .. you need to work out issues. It’s not a magical place anymore. Universal got it

Pick Magic kingdom has more variety for small kids and adults, start w the long lines rides and then go to the smaller ones, be at the center of the castle by 8:00 it gets packed pick center front because you get moved front anyways by the staff thank me later 😉
