Keys To Dream Travel-Carrie and John Voss

Beaches Resort is a great way to celebrate a special occasion! We celebrated our daughter’s 16th birthday at Beaches Ocho Rios All Inclusive Family Resort in Jamaica recently.

This was our first All Inclusive experience and we loved it! The delicious food, beach access, water sports, Sesame Street activities, water park, low crowds and ocean view room made our vacation a great experience! The only regret I had was not getting beach photos taken. We declined the photo session…big mistake

If you’re interested in pricing and info for Beaches or any other family-friendly All Inclusive Resort, please email John at [email protected].

Aren’t there kids all over the pool deck on Disney cruises?

Disney Cruise Line does an excellent job with adult only areas on their ships.

Here’s one: Satellite Falls on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy: an adult only pool and sun deck.

Cogsworth and Lumiere would like to remind you to turn your clocks back tonight!

Three Broomsticks at Hogsmeade in Islands of Adventure is a must do for the true Harry Potter experience. It’s available to purchase and reserve for breakfast, but lunch and dinner are stand by line only. During busier times, a virtual queue will be available on the Universal Orlando app. My absolute favorite is the Fish and Corn on the Cob, but they also serve Rotisserie Smoked Chicken, Chicken and Ribs, Spare Ribs, Smoked Turkey Leg, Mushroom Pie Platter, Gillywater, Pumpkin Juice, Pumpkin Fizz and other menu items. They serve frozen and hot Butterbeer as well (non-alcoholic).

Anyone else horrible about posting their vacation photos (weeks, months and even years) after their vacation? I just posted all of mine on my personal page and we’ve been home for over 3 weeks 🤦‍♀️.

I will post more, but here are some of my favorites from our Hawai’i cruise on the Disney Wonder.

Minnie’s Dine character meal with Fantasmic reserved seating at Hollywood Studios is a favorite of our family. We love that the character outfits change during each season and we love the convenience of the restaurant within the park. In our opinion, the buffet is great.

Minnie's Beach Bash Breakfast is a character meal at Disney’s Beach Club Resort that serves breakfast from 7:30am-11:30am each day. Our family has eaten there and we loved the beach theming and especially the crepes! We recommend it around 10am on a day you’re not planning to go to parks or a late breakfast around 11am after you’ve spent several hours at Hollywood Studios or EPCOT.

You do not have to be a guest at Beach Club or any Disney resort to make a dining reservation for Minnie’s Beach Bash Breakfast.

Guests meet Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Daisy throughout the meal as they visit your table to take photos. Each table is given a pre-autographed card, but each character will sign your autograph book if you ask.

The meal is a buffet and includes juice, regular coffee and soft drinks.

Offerings on the buffet include an omelet station, crepes, Mickey waffles, Minnie waffles, chocolate chip pancakes, potato barrels, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, cheddar biscuits, gravy, oatmeal, salted caramel buns, assorted fruit and more.

The current cost not including tax for breakfast is $30 for ages 3-9 and $49 for ages 10+

Minnie’s Beach Bash Breakfast at Cape May Cafe is included on the Disney Dining Plan. It is one table service credit per person.

Dining reservations can be made 60 days prior to arrival. If you’d like info about adding this to your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation package, please contact me at [email protected].

On one of our past Walt Disney World vacations, we were in club level at Wilderness Lodge and it was amazing!!!! The food was exceptional, especially the dishes that were served from the kitchen of Whispering Canyon (my personal favorite was the ribs). Food was served at 4 different times of the day with only about an hour between each “meal”.

The Leaky Cauldron is a must do for the true Harry Potter experience. It’s available to purchase and reserve for breakfast, but lunch and dinner are stand by line only. During busier times, a virtual queue will be available on the Universal Orlando app. My absolute favorite is the fish and chips, but they also serve Fisherman’s Pie, Toad in the Hole, Irish Stew, Shepherd’s Pasty Pie, Scotch Eggs, Beef, Lamb and Guinness Stew, Ploughman’s, Fishy Green Ale, Pumpkin Juice, Pumpkin Fizz, Otter’s Fizzy Orange Juice, Peachtree Fizzing Tea and other menu items. They serve frozen and hot Butterbeer as well (non-alcoholic).

Service on a Disney cruise is like no other cruise line, in our opinion. This is the first time we’ve asked for character sheets. It really adds a special touch. Our stateroom host has been amazing 😀

One of the new family activities on Disney Cruise Line on select sailings is the Encanto Celebration. We made moroccas, sang, danced and had the opportunity to meet and take photos with Bruno and Mirabel. My favorite part was when the dads performed “Surface Pressure” 🩷
