Walt Disney World Adds New Water Park Perk for Resort Guests in 2025

Walt Disney World Resort hotel rooms and theme park tickets for dates from January to October 2025 will be available to book beginning February 27, 2024! Guests can choose from over 25 different resorts – from value to moderate and deluxe – and then start their trip with a NEW perk.

Start Your Vacation at a Disney Water Park  

Throughout 2025, guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel can enjoy admission to one of our water parks on their check-in day – included with their stay. Our water parks have something for everyone: big thrills, lazy rivers, wave pools, interactive play areas for younger kids and even water slides the whole family can enjoy together. The fun can start on day one at a Disney water park! Tip: Be sure to check the water park operating hours closer to 2025 arrivals.

More Disney Resort Hotel Benefits 

There are so many reasons to stay at a Disney Resort Hotel, including:

• Proximity to the theme parks: If visiting the Walt Disney World theme parks, nothing beats the convenience of staying at a Disney Resort hotel. Many resorts are just a hop, a skip and a jump to a theme park!
• Complimentary transportation: Not only are the theme parks near the resorts, but they’re easy to get to. With several complimentary transportation options, such as buses, boats, monorails and Disney Skyliner, guests can get anywhere they need to go.
• Extra time in the theme parks: Disney Resort hotel guests can get extra time in the theme parks with 30 minutes of early theme park entry. And guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resorts or Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts can maximize their time with extended evening hours at select parks. Both will continue through 2025!
• Early access to dining reservations: Don’t forget, Disney Resort hotel guests can make dining reservations for their entire stay (up to a 10-night stay) 60 days before the first day of their vacation.
• Recreation & fitness activities: Even during a vacation, wellness is one of our top priorities. Our Disney Resort hotels offer several wellness activities through Disney Family Wellness. Some favorites include dancing to Disney songs, family fun walks and, yes, even pickleball!

If guests prefer to pack light, they can check out MagicBands that let them into the theme parks, unlock their Disney Resort hotel room, link Disney PhotoPass photos, make purchases and more – just with a tap of their band. Disney Resort hotel guests have the option to purchase a MagicBand+ at a special discount before they arrive for their stay.  And remember, we are offering a few great deals for 2024 Disney Resort hotel stays and theme park tickets.

Please note one change to our cancellation policy: For 2025 arrivals, room only reservations can be canceled without penalty until 8 days prior to arrival.
