Disney World is way more than theme parks. It’s also Disney Springs PLUS all the wonderfully-themed Disney World hotels.
Whether you want to feel like you’re vacationing on the French Riviera or spending time at a beach in the Caribbean or reliving pop culture nostalgia, each Disney World hotel is unique and has its own kind of charm. We visit the hotels often to see what’s been going on at them, so let’s get to the latest round of hotel updates!
Caribbean Beach Merchandise Updates
Calypso Trading Post
We are loving all the hotel ornaments that have been coming out and now there’s one for Caribbean Beach. The front looks like the hotel’s exterior.
While the back has Mickey and Minnie decked out in their beach clothes in a tiny version of the hotel’s interior. This ornament is $29.99.
The Minnie Sweatshirt we’ve seen elsewhere is also here.
We love all the Minnie expressions on this shirt. So fun!
