food IS a theme park
Let’s be honest: if you are paying Disney World prices, you want every possible second of park time squeezed out of that vacation like the last drop of cold brew on a rope-drop morning.

And thankfully, some hotels really do help with that.
If you’ve ever looked around Disney World and gone “there are so many great restaurants, but I don’t know where to start at each one,” then there’s a solution happening next month that you can’t miss out on!
Summer House on the Lake
For the past 20 years, Visit Orlando’s Magical Dining event has been a great way to try multiple different higher-caliber restaurants for lower prices, while supporting a great cause at the same time. This year is no different, but if you’ve specifically wanted to try these Disney World restaurants, you’ll want to grab your tickets!
Disney World can be an escape for all of us — and sometimes that means doing a few extra things that make us feel a bit fancier. We’ve eaten at several restaurants around Disney World that give us a classy, upscale vibe, but none quite as exclusive as dining at the Four Seasons.
Ravello
We recently stopped by Ravello at the Four Seasons Orlando to see if it was the best way to start out our day at Disney World, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worthy of a stop a little bit out of the way on your next trip? Find out here!
Disney World is full of unique experiences you can’t find anywhere else — that’s what keeps us coming back time and time again (okay, that and the corn dog nuggets).
Four Seasons Orlando
But, some of the BEST experiences at Disney World can’t be found in the parks at all, but instead at the hotels! Whether you’re looking for a fireworks cruise or a fancy meal, chances are you can find it. And, if it’s Afternoon Tea you’re after, you’re going to want to visit the Four Seasons Orlando!
It’s no secret that Disney World has some pretty amazing restaurants.
Victoria & Albert’s
We would know because we’ve eaten at every single one of them! But that’s not all — many of Disney World’s restaurants have won MAJOR awards. Several restaurants have been awarded recognition by the Michelin Guide and have even received Michelin Stars. This year, two Disney World restaurants have earned Michelin Stars — and we want to brag about them!
Now’s your chance to win the ULTIMATE luxury trip at a hotel right outside of the Disney World parks!

Celebrities head to Disney World all the time — just like you and I!
Four Seasons Hotel Room
Well, many times they experience it a little differently. Oftentimes with private tours that will take them anywhere they want to go in the parks and help them skip tons of long lines, and sometimes they may choose to stay at the best of the best hotels on property too. Here are 5 hotels we KNOW celebrities stay at in Disney World!
There is nothing quite like nibbling on finger sandwiches and delicious sweets while sipping on a cup of tea, right?
We have a new spot for Afternoon Tea!
Admittedly, we are still mourning the fact that the Garden View Tea Room at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa has not brought back its Afternoon Tea experience. While we wait for The Cake Bake Shop to open and debut its own Afternoon Tea service, we have another option for an Afternoon Tea experience in Walt Disney World. Bet you didn’t know about THIS fun little dining experience. Prepare to be amazed!
Disney World is changing all the time and that likely isn’t stopping anytime soon.
Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
They’ve teased potential expansion plans for NEW themed areas “Beyond Big Thunder Mountain” in Magic Kingdom and discussed a DinoLand U.S.A. re-theme in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. And, while these may just be ideas for now, we’ve got a few signs that other changes could be happening a bit sooner.
Staying on Disney World property during your vacation can make a HUGE difference.
