Many special benefits are available for Disney Hotel guests including:


Visitors staying at Disney Resort hotels receive additional park time each day.


Early Theme Park Entry


Disney Resort hotel guests can begin their Disney experience 30 minutes ahead of schedule with early theme park entry—accessible at all 4 Walt Disney World theme parks. This sought-after perk will remain available through 2025!


Early theme park entry provides you with a valuable advantage, granting access to selected rides, retail outlets, and eateries before standard opening hours. This privilege is available throughout your entire stay—at any park, depending on capacity.


To utilise early theme park entry, you must have valid admission and either a MagicBand, Disney MagicMobile pass, or Key to the World Card. Theme park reservations might be necessary based on your ticket type.


Extended Evening Theme Park Hours


Visitors staying at Disney Deluxe Resort Hotels or Disney Deluxe Villas can take advantage of extended evening hours—enjoying selected attractions, shops, and dining beyond regular hours—in specific theme parks on designated nights. This coveted benefit will continue through 2025!


Combined with early theme park entry—available to all Disney Resort hotel guests—you'll have the opportunity to arrive earlier and depart later, maximising your park experience!
