Saving some cash when you go to Disney World might seem to be a contradiction, but with some smart planning and preparation, visitors can have an enjoyable visit to Orlando without running up a huge bill.
The DisneyWorld Resort is absolutely huge, covering almost 50 square miles just outside Kissimmee, Florida. There are four gigantic theme areas, Epcot, MGM, the Animal Kingdom, and the Magic Kingdom. With so much to see, tourists usually spend at least 7 days or more just to see everything. Disney has built more than a dozen resorts just to take care of everyone visiting the parks.
Of course, Disney executives recognize that folks are looking for different options when going to Orlando. For this reason, they have resorts that fit every budget. Resorts are separated into Value, Moderate, and Deluxe classifications. Value is sort of the Walt Disney way of saying inexpensive, but you won’t be let down, as the Disney Value hotels are clean and comfortable. Moderate hotels are one step up, promising bigger rooms and sit down restaurants on the property.
Deluxe resorts at Disney World are top of the line accommodations built to please and placate any tourist. Some of the resorts such as the Contemporary Resort and Polynesian are on the elevated train, so you can simply ride to Epcot without using a rental car or taking a bus. Guest accommodations are much bigger, and the Disney World environment is of course magical.
So how do you decide which resort to stay at? Well would you rather use your hard earned cash on presents or pamper yourself with the best, remember you are on vacation? Value options like the Disney Pop Century Resort can cost anywhere from $75 to $120 a night, while top end Hotel start from $250 and go higher from there. As you can see, if you multiply that by 7 to 10 days, you would end up spending hundreds extra just for a better place.
The option is yours, but whatever you pick, you will be sure Disney World cast members will do their best to be sure you and your family have a good visit on your trip away from home.
