Here’s all the info you need about Disney transportation to and from the theme parks! One of the major perks that is included with staying at a Disney resort is the free transportation to and from the theme parks. While bus is the most common mode of transportation, some of the resorts offer other fun […]
Yachtsman Steakhouse dinner
Yachtsman Steakhouse, at Disney’s Yacht Club resort, definitely feels like one of those “special occasion” type places. This past January was my second time eating there, and I had decided a Yachtsman Steakhouse dinner would be the perfect way to celebrate completing the Dopey Challenge! Maybe it was the post-race exhaustion, but I actually forgot […]
Enchanted Rose Lounge
I have only stayed at the Grand Floridian once (in the DVC villas), but I find myself visiting the resort fairly often – mostly because they have some great restaurant options! When the Enchanted Rose lounge was first announced some people were skeptical. They felt that the French-inspired Beauty and the Beast lounge wouldn’t go […]
Old Key West review
I stayed at Old Key West for the first time in January 2020, while I was running the Dopey Challenge. It hadn’t been my first choice, but I’m so glad that’s where I ended up because I ultimately fell in love with this resort! I know we will definitely be back for a stay here […]
Breakfast and Dinner at Olivia’s Cafe
During our last trip to Disney we stayed at Old Key West, so we had the chance to dine at Olivia’s Cafe twice – once for dinner, and once for breakfast. I’d heard the food was good but it wasn’t usually too busy since it’s a little bit off the beaten path. We had a […]
Grand Floridian Cafe breakfast review
I’ve eaten dinner at the Grand Floridian Cafe before, but this was the first time I got to experience breakfast. Located in the Grand Floridian resort, this is an easy trip from Magic Kingdom. In our case we started our day with breakfast here before hopping on the monorail to go to the parks. The […]
Has the bus transportation at Disney resorts gone downhill?
During my most recent stay at Disney World I was at Coronado Springs. I have now stayed at Disney about 30 times, and I have never in memory had such poor bus service as I did on this trip. I don’t know if this is a fluke or not, but I do think it’s worth […]
Paradise Pier review
Disneyland has three official hotels: Paradise Pier, the Disneyland hotel, and the Grand Californian. The thing that makes Disneyland a little different from Disney World is how close everything is – you can walk from all three of those hotels to the parks, but there are also “Good Neighbor” hotels which are walking distance as […]
Regatta Run at the Yacht and Beach Club
Please welcome back guest blogger Kristin D – today she is going to share her experience doing the Regatta Run, a fun run at the Yacht and Beach Club! During my trip to Disney World this April, I was able to do the Beach Club and Yacht Club’s “Regatta Run.” It takes place at 8AM […]
Coronado Springs review
For my trip in February that was over the Princess race weekends, I was leaning towards staying at a moderate resort. I knew that I wanted a little more space and comfort than the values (having a bigger, comfier bed and a hot tub were important when I was running so much!), but I didn’t […]
