🎨✨💗I can’t believe EPCOT’s International Festival of the Arts isn’t more popular and doesn’t get more love, it is INCREDIBLE! For starters, can we talk about how nice this BURST of color is right in the middle of the dark, dreary days of Winter? Aside from that, who doesn’t love

🍴🌍 snacking their way around World Showcase.

🎭🎶 listening to favorite Broadway tunes.

Watching 🖌️✨ LIVE artists do their thing everywhere you turn.

You don’t have to be a Picasso or even hold a pencil right to fall in love with this lovely Festival. Is this on your Disney to-do list?📝🏰

🤔When is a good time to visit Walt Disney World? I get asked that ALL the time, and part of me wants to keep it a secret because I have grown to love the calm winter months so much. Mid-January into early February, is a perfect post-holiday getaway. You’ll find lighter crowds, cooler temps and the colorful, fun and inspiring EPCOT International Festival of the Arts! (Who doesn’t love a good Festival, especially one this underrated and special.)

🍲🍷Do you like to time your trips around your favorite EPCOT Festival? 🎓📚Are you at the mercy of school schedules? What is your perfect time to visit?

✈️🧳✨Whether you’re planning a quick weekend getaway or a longer stay at Walt Disney World, Disney’s Pop Century Resort is the 👌 perfect home base. 🎳🌼🪀

🥶❄️ For those escaping cold winters and curious about snow birding, Pop Century offers an affordable way to soak up some Florida sunshine. If you’re traveling internationally or cross-country, staying longer makes sense—flights aren’t cheap, and Pop Century helps stretch your budget!💰✨

With its lively atmosphere, 🍕🍔great food court packed with shareable options, and convenient Skyliner access to two parks and other resorts, Pop Century isn’t just affordable—it’s also super convenient for park days and fun non-park activities.🎨🎉

I stayed at Pop Century in July this last year and I loved all the transportation options to every park/destination. Their food court was also really nice and not usually super busy! It’s definitely a great option for my budget friendly clients!

It’s also very close to the exit of the Disney “bubble” making 🛍️ errands in the outside world easier. 🏡✨ Do any of you call Disney’s Pop Century Resort “home sweet home”? What do you love most about this resort?

🎃🎄 🐴✨ For a cozy, storybook experience that’s extra magical during the Halloween and Christmas holidays, book a Horse Drawn Carriage Ride at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort. These are available year round, but take on a whole new level of amazing, thanks to the creative campsite decorations of the resort guests. 🛷🎄✨ During the month of December, these become “sleigh rides”, are wildly popular and more expensive. All rides are 25 minutes and can accommodate up to 4 adults or 2 adults and 3 small children.

I know I would love to see all the Christmas decorations, it would be so magical and festive!! 🎄🎄

📌Pro Tip: If you want that holiday magic without the December rush (or sleigh prices), book your ride in November! 🍁 The campsites will already be decked out with festive decorations giving you all the 🎄❄️ holiday feels, but reservations are way easier to snag and you may even be able to walk up. Have you done this? Tell us everything! ⬇️

🎄🏠🍭 Is building a gingerbread house a tradition you’re on board with? Disney sure is! Each year, Disney’s resort hotels create life-sized gingerbread masterpieces—complete with hidden Mickeys! From the Grand Floridian’s working gingerbread house shop to the Grand Californian’s adorable “mini me” display, these creations are worth the trip alone. They even do this on cruises! 🚢

We try as a family to decorate gingerbread houses as least once a year, but I can guarantee they are not at the same level of the ones in the parks! 😂

⏳ Time is winding down to see these sweet works of art in person, but it’s not too early to declare 2025 will be the year for you. {Enter how to best contact you} anytime, but for now, where do you stand on these festive projects? 🛠️🎁 Are you constructing your own or just admire the work of others? 🤩✨

🛳️🦸‍♂️ “Avengers…on board!” If you’re in your superhero era, consider a Marvel Day at Sea Disney Cruise! These 5-night sailings typically run from January to mid-March from Fort Lauderdale on the Disney Dream, with itineraries to the Bahamas or Western Caribbean. The Bahamas option even includes stops at Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point for double the Disney magic!✨✨

What makes Marvel Day at Sea so special?

Guests of all ages dress as their favorite heroes

Marvel movies on Funnel Vision

Trivia and special shows

😱“Wait, I thought YOU grabbed that!?” Have you ever checked out of your room, left an attraction or restaurant only to realize that you left something behind? If you haven’t, good for you! But many of us probably have! Here are some things to know about Disney’s lost and found:

📦 All items go to a central facility and they get turned in quickly! Chances are your item isn’t where you left it for very long.

📋 Submit a form right away via the My Disney Experience app. (Just search for Lost and Found within the app) Within 48 hours you’ll get an update.

🚚 Don’t lose hope if at first you get a notice it hasn’t been found. They will keep looking and if your item is under 70 pounds and smaller than 15x15x15 inches, they will ship it to you!

✨🪄 Pixie dust happens all the time, so don’t feel like your items are lost forever if you leave something behind! Do you have any stories of lost or forgotten items making their way home to you? 📦💌

🔋 Fuel Rods (both Disney and Universal have exchange machines-but beware there is a fee to do so at Universal)

🧊 Cooling towels if going in the warmer months

🌬️ Personal fan

💳 Disney or Universal gift card

🧼 Personal size hand sanitizer

🪥Travel size toiletries

These little gifts make vacation easier and more fun!

🎃👻 Happy Halloween friends! 👻🎃 This time of year always has me yearning to get to Disney. I don’t know if it’s the cooler weather in the parks or all the Mickey shaped pumpkin things but I’m a sucker for Halloween at Disney!! Anyone else with me?!🙋🏼‍♀️

It’s never too early to start planning your Disney trip for next year’s Halloween spooky season. DM me to start planning today! ☺️

M&Ms debuted in 1941, and our love affair with those candy-coated gems has never slowed down. 💖 This sweet shop is part history and ALL yummy! You can find M&Ms of EVERY flavor and color here (and you may be surprised at some of those options) , along with some items exclusive to the Disney Springs mega store. Which M&M color and flavor has the biggest hold on your sweet tooth? 🍫 Have you made a stop in this colorful candy store? 🍬🛍️

😝You know how sometimes things look a lot better than they taste? The House Gumbo from Tiana’s Palace isn’t one of those things. 😋🍲 This rich, flavorful dish is definitely not your standard quick service fare. 🍽️ Add a side order of 🍞Buttermilk Cornbread and chef’s kiss! 😘🤌 Fair warning, this meal will have you digging a little deeper into your wallet (about $20 with the cornbread) 💵, but it’s hearty, tasty, and shareable. Leaving plenty of room for beignets!

I almost never share my food in real life, but at Disney, it’s one of those wallet savvy tips I always tell my clients. Portions are usually bigger and since you’re snacking all day, it just makes sense!

There’s more than just gumbo here. You can order shrimp and grits, po’boy and muffuletta sandwiches, and more! What would you most likely try from Tiana’s Palace? 🍤🥪

Universal isn’t all about dinosaurs 🦖 and wizards 🧙‍♂️—there are some super fun, great-for-everyone-in-the-family attractions like 😎 Men in Black Alien Attack. Nothing bonds families together quite like some friendly competition and blasting aliens to save the planet. Don’t speed through the ride queue, because seeing aliens having their coffee break is going to absolutely make your day. ☕👽 Are you typically the one in your ride vehicle saving the planet, or are you more of a casual back-up agent?

Disney Springs has some really fun things to do—it’s not just shopping and restaurants! 🎉🛍️ Did you know at Goofy’s Candy Co. you can create your own sweet treat? 🍭 Inside this fun, and I’ll say it—goofy shop, you have the option of designing your very own caramel apple 🍎, cake pop 🍰, crispy treat 🍪, or marshmallow. 🍡 You choose the “base” and then add your toppings. What a fun experience and maybe a nice reward for letting Mom and Dad shop in peace? 😂

📝Let’s have a little fun...take a look at the order form and tell us in the comments what you’re getting! 😊

When planning for a wonderful, multigenerational trip, many guests lean into the idea of booking two rooms at a Value or Moderate Resort in an effort to save cash. 💵 Did you know that in some cases, it is actually more cost effective to go the DVC villa route and all stay together? 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 (Especially when you consider you’ll have a kitchen/kitchenette for breakfasts before hitting the parks!) 🍽️ Why take a trip together and then peel off into separate rooms down a long, loud hallway? 😴 Who loves the idea of calling a villa home? 🏠 Where have you always wanted to stay?

On National Face Your Fears Day 😱, let’s talk coasters...which would you try on your bravest day at Universal Orlando Resort? 💪 Are you going to race the raptors on the VelociCoaster? 🦖 How about a soaking drop on Jurassic Park River Adventure? 🌊 Battle the Hulk? 💥 Pal around with Hagrid? 🏍️ Or hold on for dear life while listening to tunes on Rip Ride Rockit? 🎶🎢 (Or will you save everyone a trip to the lockers and just hold the bags?) 🎒😊

You’ve been staking out empty lounge chairs by the pool during your sailing 🛳️, you’ve mingled with families in the buffet line 🍽️, and you have kicked some serious b***y in trivia all week long. 🏆 Now, at Lighthouse Point at Lookout Cay 🌴, you are longing for some family, quiet, private downtime. 🏖️ You are definitely going to want to spring for a family cabana at Mabrika Cove. This cozy, snack and drink-stocked cabana is your perfect island retreat to really get away from it all! 😌 Is booking a private cabana at the tippy top of your “must book” Port Adventures list for your next Disney Cruise Line vacation? (Can I come too?!) 😄

Happy Birthday, Disneyland Hotel! 🎉🏨 Granted, this beauty has had some glamming up in her 69 years of nostalgic grace and style ✨, but who can resist the charm of the OG? 💖 Whether it be taking a dip in the Monorail pool 🏊‍♂️ or being steps away from Downtown Disney, this resort is a Disneyland staple for West Coast Disney travel! Who has stayed here? What did you love most?

Pro Tip Alert! 🚨✨ Want to save some cash and calories while eating Quick Service at the Disney parks? Here’s a little secret… kids’ meals are where it’s at! 👧🍽️ If you’re not on the Disney Dining Plan, aren’t a big eater, or don’t like to share, why pay for food you’ll barely finish? Order a kids’ meal! At least look at the options, because they are way easier on your wallet, typically healthier, and surprisingly good.

Talk about a win-win-win: you save money, don’t feel overstuffed , and won’t feel guilty snacking around “the World.” 🍿🌍

My go-to plan for food is snacking throughout the day instead three large meals. Disney snack sizes are HUGE and so grabbing a cinnamon roll or a pretzel is sometimes even easier for your stomach and for your wallet!

Next time you’re at the parks, don’t be afraid to check out that kids’ menu! 👧🍽️ Want more money-saving tricks and planning tips? I’ve got tons of them! Message me and let’s make your Disney trip fun and more affordable! 🏰💸
