Sometimes a Disney trip comes together with a lot of planningโ€ฆ and sometimes itโ€™s, โ€œWeโ€™re four hours away, letโ€™s go stay in the bubble!โ€ โฃ

We stayed in the ๐— ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜๐˜† ๐——๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐˜€ section, and honestly? It was alright!โฃ
โฃ
Weโ€™ve stayed at a few Disney resorts over the years, so we definitely have our favorites. For a longer stay, we tend to enjoy having more space and extra resort amenities, but for a night or two? All Star Movies totally works for us!โฃ
โฃ
Our 4 yo LOVED it! My husband and I tend to gravitate toward the more subtle theming, but thereโ€™s something really fun about seeing Disney movies brought to life on this scale!โฃ

The room felt a little tight for our family, especially with the second bed pulled down.โฃ
โฃ
Your dining options are primarily the quick service food court and pool bar, which is totally fine for a short stay, but itโ€™s something Iโ€™d consider for a longer vacation.โฃ
โฃ
And while the pools were clean and cute, theyโ€™re pretty basic. You wonโ€™t find the slides or extra pool amenities that some of the moderate and deluxe resorts offer.โฃ

The Cast Members, the cleanliness, the food, the serviceโ€ฆ the whole experience just feels so special ๐Ÿ’ซโฃ

I love the simplicity of the themed rooms, the calming landscapes, the beautiful Victorian details, and of course, the convenience of being just a quick monorail ride away from Magic Kingdom. It somehow feels grand and peaceful all at once!โฃ

If someone asks what they can get her, weโ€™ll often say a Disney gift card. She gets to use it on whatever she wants at Disney; snacks, souvenirs, toys, etc. Itโ€™s basically her own little โ€œDisney credit card,โ€ without us having to let her go wild with our actual credit card ๐Ÿ˜‚โฃ
