Overview

Why we love it

The theming is grand and classical, yet still very Disney at the same time. Aside from all the wonderful dining experiences that this Moderate Hotel offers, we love the fun campfire activities and watching Disney Movies Under the Stars.

    Slightly disappointed this year with several big rides closed for refurb, but have to say the New Tron ride is brilliant.

    By far our favourite park. Having children with additional needs they found the interactive rides at this park amazing. The moana walk through experience was a great experience. Epcot is great in the day but also it’s a must to visit at night.

    Magic kingdom was one of our favourite parks. We also purchased extra tickets for the Mickey”s Very merry Christmas party through attraction tickets which was amazing. Again the ease of the free magic bands was a great addition to park days.

    We went once to Disneys Hollywood studios using attraction tickets. Great park and having the ease of free magic bands provided by attraction tickets was great. Was really easy to link the tickets to the magic bands allowing quick entry.
