Disney Magic Far from the Parks

For anyone looking for a blissfully peaceful and beautiful beach vacation plus the “Disney difference”, the good news is that two of my very favorite vacation destinations are the perfect solution – Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort in South Carolina, and Disney’s Vero Beach Resorts on the “treasure coast” of Florida. Both resorts offer the usual sand and sea that make a beach vacation a perfect place to relax and have fun. But when you add in those “extras” that you’ll find at Walt Disney World or Disneyland in California, the result is a magical combination. Disney details and service, but without any park stress? Sounds perfect doesn’t it! Read more

Feel at Home at Disney’s Lovely Old Key West Resort

When you have a large(r) family or are looking for room to spread out on your Disney vacation – and maybe even have a kitchen so you can do some cooking – what do you do? Happily, the Walt Disney World Resort offers a number of options for guests who are looking for just that, at their Deluxe Villas. While some villas are part of existing deluxe resorts and so share facilities and amenities (Disney’s Beach Club, Boardwalk, and Animal Kingdom Resorts are examples) there are several deluxe villas that are ‘standalone’ resorts in that they only have villas. One of these – and a personal favorite of ours – is Disney’s Old Key West Resort. With a quiet and colorful Key West vibe, and enhanced with water ways and palm tree lined streets, this resort might just be the perfect option for your next Disney vacation. Read more
