food IS a theme park
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa is now welcoming back guests after a temporary closure.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
While the Villas at the Grand Floridian and some of the resort’s restaurants had already opened, the non-Disney Vacation Club guest rooms reopened today! We visited the hotel to see what things look like now that it’s officially reopened.
Sip, Savor, & Stay starts this weekend at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort!
Swan and Dolphin Resort
Sip, Savor, & Stay is a modified version of the annual Food and Wine Classic event. This year, the event will be held indoors and with a limited capacity. Along with an overnight stay at the resort, guests will have access to finely curated food, drink, and entertainment! Swan and Dolphin JUST released the full menus for the first two weekends of this delish event! We gotta tell you, this stuff looks GOOD.

Now that we’ve experienced our first trip back to several Walt Disney World hotels as Disney World continues its phased reopening, we’ve picked up a few handy tips for you!

Tomorrow is Independence Day, which means it’s time to salute all things AMERICAN!

This Apple Pie recipe is inspired by our favorite slice from Whispering Canyon Cafe at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge in Walt Disney World. Ever been? Well, if you haven’t, the restaurant is known for silly antics and delish dishes like the Cowboy Sundae. Now, you can bring the lively spirit of Whispering Canyon to your home!
Earlier this month, we reported Disney was suing Florida’s Orange County over several inflated property tax appraisals.
Hi Mickey!
And now a huge ruling has just landed in Disney’s favor.
We’ve been checking out all of the reopened Disney hotels.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
