Disney's Beach Club Resort

 

Disney’s Beach Club Resort is one of my favorite resorts. Take a few steps into the lobby and tell me it doesn’t smell like heaven! Some of my favorite things include:

Beaches and Cream is one of my favorite restaurants and if you’re not looking to eat, their milkshakes are divine

Within walking distance of Epcot & the Epcot Disney Skyliner depot

There’s a walking path to Hollywood Studios, about a 20 minute walk

Crescent Lake Beach is the perfect spot to read a book and relax after a long day at the parks

Storm along Bay features one of the best pools at Disney World, including a 230-foot slide

Have you stayed at Disney’s Beach Club or is it on your bucket list?

Boatwright's at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside

 

Boatwright's recently reopened at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside and features a hearty dinner menu!

Cheeseburger Spring Rolls in Magic Kingdom

 

Hands down, my favorite snack to get at Disney World are the Cheeseburger Springs Rolls from the cart near Adventureland in Magic Kingdom. So simple, but so delicious. While the $10 price tag for 2 seems a bit steep, I don't even care. I'm also not sharing! These are so good that I came home and mastered making them myself to curb the cravings.

Sanaa at Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village

 

Sanaa at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge - Kidani Village is such a unique experience. Enjoy African cooking with Indian flavors while you watch exotic animals roam the Sunset Savanna.

Royal Rooms at Disney's Port Orleans - Riverside

 

Disney's Port Orleans - Riverside is one of my favorite moderate resorts! The Royal Rooms here are so much fun and have so many perfect Disney touches.

Deluxe Studio at Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Jambo House

 

Jambo House is adjacent to Animal Kingdom Lodge, which is one of the most beautiful resorts on property! 

Relaxing Resort Day at Walt Disney World

 

Some Disney vacations are spent entirely in the theme parks, but we love a good down day. When you're planning to have a good rest day at Disney, it's so important to pick a resort that has amenities to fit your needs. I love Port Orleans - Riverside and Port Orleans - French Quarter because these two resorts share amenities, so you receive double the options, and the resorts themselves are so peaceful and lovely!

Oga's Cantina in Hollywood Studios

 

Oga's Cantina at Disney's Hollywood Studios is such a unique place, but the food is a bit weird!

Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Pre-Party

 

One of the things I have most looked forward to was the return of the Fireworks Dessert Parties at Walt Disney World! 

Lunch at Garden Grill at Epcot

 

Garden Grill is always such a fun experience. I love to ride Living with the Land and see all the food that is grown (and used at the restaurants in Epcot) and then head to Garden Grill to enjoy that Farm-Fresh food! And of course, rotating around scenes from Living with the Land is also a plus!

50th Anniversary Menu Items at Cosmic Ray's in Magic Kingdom

The 50th Anniversary Celebration is in full swing at Walt Disney World and the Walt inspired menu items are super fun!

Checkout the Mission to Mars Burger ($12.99)
It's a burger opped with bacon + macaroni & cheese, served on a bun dusted with crushed cheese puffs. It also comes with an order of fries. Or you can get an order of Walt's Chili Cheese Fries ($6.49.) These portion sizes are huge and super shareable too!

Refurbished Rooms at Disney's All Star Music Resort

 

The All Star Resorts at Disney World feature super attractive pricing, making it a great option if you don't plan to spend a ton of time at the resort but want to take advantage of those on-property perks! I love the refurbs the Value Resorts have seen in recent years.

Breakfast at Steakhouse 71 at Disney's Contemporary Resort

 

Disney's new restaurant, Steakhouse 71, has a menu inspired by Walt Disney's favorites!

Sebastian's Bistro at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort

Sebastian's Bistro is located along the Old Port Royale promenade at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. This family friendly spot offers family-style dishes and market-fresh ingredients!

Dinner at Trail's End at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort

 

Dinner at Trail's End is $29.99 per adult & $17.99 per child (plus tax & gratuity) and it's family-style, so it's all you care to enjoy, which makes it a great value! Just look at the starter bread basket that features goat cheese chive biscuits, hushpuppies, skillet cornbread with pimento spread, and honey butter!

Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar in Disney Springs

Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar is a must visit for any Indiana Jones' fan or just someone looking for interesting bites and delicious cocktails!

Three Bridges Bar and Grill at Villa del Lago

 

This restaurant that sits on Lago Dorado at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort has become one of my favorites. 

Club Cool at Epcot

 

The all-new Club Cool has debuted at Epcot. The reopening came after a lengthly closure and re-location! Club Cool is an attraction where you can sample different Coca-Cola flavors from all over the world...for FREE! This is a great midday stop to beat the heat, and crowds!

Dinner at Kona Cafe at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

Kona Cafe has become my go-to since 'Ohana has not been open (so excited it's reopening soon!) 

The Crystal Palace at Magic Kingdom

 

The Crystal Palace is that one restaurant at Disney World that will always bring me back to being a kid. I can vividly remember the first time I went here, the first time I took my husband here, and it truly feels like time stood still (but in a good way.) This has previously been a buffet experience, which was nothing extraordinary, so I was very excited to try the new family-style menu!
