While the main point of a Disney World vacation is to visit the resort’s four theme parks, there are some days when it’s better to do NOTHING but kick back and enjoy one’s hotel.

These Do-Nothing Days usually consist of spending time relaxing at one’s hotel and taking advantage of its amenities, including pools, walking trails, bodies of water, and dining establishments. While some guests may initially recoil at the idea of “wasting” one of their vacation days outside of the parks, there are some definite benefits.
If your wardrobe, park bag, or even your car could use a little extra Disney magic right now… you’re gonna want to hear this.

A bunch of seriously fun Disney finds just went on sale over at BoxLunch, and some of these discounts are kind of wild. We’re talking Loungefly bags, cozy apparel, and even a little something to make your daily commute feel more magical. Basically, it’s the kind of drop that makes you go, “Okay, I didn’t need this, but I absolutely want it.”
Disney World is in a state of transformation, with massive construction projects, refurbishments, and ride closures dotting the resort’s landscape. Of all these projects, there’s perhaps no transformation eliciting reactions at the moment quite like the Muppets takeover of the Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster.
The guitar
The coaster first opened in 1999 and has featured American rock band Aerosmith since its inception. However, in 2024, Disney announced that the attraction would be rethemed to feature the Muppets, who had recently been announced as being evicted from their longtime attraction, MuppetVision*3D, to make room for Monsters, Inc. at Hollywood Studios.
Some big things are coming to Disney World. We’re getting new lands, expansions, updated rides, and more. In EPCOT, the BIG transformation is complete, but that doesn’t mean that EPCOT isn’t about to get something exciting: an updated version of Soarin’.
Soarin’ Around the World
This year marks the 250th anniversary of the U.S., and Disney plans on celebrating by updating Soarin’ Around the World to Soarin’ Across America. The updated ride will feature brand new scenes, but a new permit suggests that the ride may be getting even MORE big changes.
Getting LOCKED out of Disney World, the WORST “day one” theme park strategy, and the things you NEVER want to take for granted.

If that doesn’t bring back memories, you must not have grown up as a Disney Channel kid. Disney Channel raised some of us and turned us into the very Disney Adults you see today. Disneyland is hosting Disney Channel Nite, where you get to celebrate Disney Channel and all the throwbacks throughout Disneyland, and they just dropped a new look at the eats, and y’all, if you weren’t planning on getting tickets before, you definitely should be now!
There’s no denying the appeal of visiting Disney World during a special time of the year.

However, reality is that there are certain days that will likely be better spent in the comfort of a Disney World hotel.
If there’s one thing Disney World consistently gets right, it’s their hotels with the immersive theming, over-the-top details, and that unmistakable “Disney magic” you can feel the second you walk into the lobby.
All-Star Music Resort
From incredible pools to convenient perks, staying on property has always been part of what makes a Disney vacation so special. But lately, something has changed, and not for the better. Disney hotels go through refurbishments every year, but there’s one new trend that has taken over as rooms get refurbished.
Disney World is enormous. It is a city wearing mouse ears. It is a vacation destination built on snacks, logistics, and a frankly alarming number of tiny details most people walk right past while speed-walking to their next Lightning Lane.
Main Street, U.S.A.
And sure, plenty of Disney fans know the usual trivia. Hidden Mickeys. Secret menus. Forced perspective. The whole “yes, I do know where the best bathroom in EPCOT is, thank you for asking” energy. But even if you’ve been to Disney World a bunch, there are still some weird, wonderful, wildly specific details hiding in plain sight. Some are real Imagineering flexes. Some are backstage-level oddities. And a couple are legends that Disney fans refuse to let die, because honestly? They’re too good.
Here are the Disney World secrets, details, and bits of delicious park lore that even frequent visitors still miss.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
