Staying in Style

Disney resort hotels are a treat unto themselves. They can transport you back in time to the grand antebellum mansions of the South, the adventurous American Southwest, or even Florida around the turn of the century! Disney boasts the best themed, most comfortable, and most enjoyable resorts we've ever encountered (and we've been around the world).

Resorts require the most extensive planning for several reasons. Each Disney resort offers such a variety of amenities and services that choosing the best one can seem daunting. Disney resorts are popular, meaning they fill up quickly and early reservations are important. And resorts usually reflect the largest chunk of your vacation budget, so it is important to get the most bang out of your buck.

That's why the Staying in Style section in both our book and our Web site is the largest! So dig in, explore, and have fun!

"The Casitas are the least interesting visually, but are convenient to the Convention Center—in fact, they house the only rooms that you can reach from El Centro without leaving the protection of a roof or overhang (helpful on rainy days)." -- Page 57, PassPorter Walt Disney World
