Disney Dining Plan - With a Video!

There are many benefits to staying on Disney Property. One of these benefits includes the option to add one of Disney’s Dining Plans to your package! Purchasing a dining package can save your family up to 30% on dining!

When sitting down for dinner, my concern usually turns to how much the meal will cost. When purchasing the Disney Dining Plan, I can go into a restaurant without looking at the cost and just order according to what we love. If my husband wants the large steak meal for $30.00, I don’t need to think, “We only have $40.00 for dinner, what can I order to make this work.”  Other than paying for gratuities and alcohol, I would never need to reach into my wallet for food.

Disney has 3 Dining Plans – Disney’s Quick-Service Dining Plan, Disney’s Dining Plan and Disney’s Deluxe Dining Plan. It really depends on your eating habits and how you conquer the parks as to which plan is perfect for your family!

Does your family wake up at dawn to be at rope drop? Do your "rests" involve sitting during an attraction and your days end at park close? If this is your style, I would recommend Disney's Quick-Service Dining Plan. Each person age 3 and older will receive 2 Quick-Service Meals and 1 Snack per night of your stay.

If your family enjoys the hustle and bustle of the parks, but also looks forward to sit-down meals, your best bet would be the Disney Dining Plan. Some call this the "Regular" Dining Plan. This is the most popular dining plan as it offers 1 Table-Service Meal, 1 Quick-Service Meal and 1 Snack per person, per night of your stay.

Want to enjoy a slow leisurely pace during your vacation, and enjoy some of the most fabulous cuisine that Disney has to offer? Do you like to eat your way through "The World"? Then Disney's Deluxe Dining Plan is for you! This plan includes 3 meals either Quick-Service or Table-Service and 2 Snacks per person, per night of your stay. Talk about a LOT of food!

With each of these dining plans, each person age 3 and older on your reservation will receive 1 refillable resort mug that is valid for the length of your stay. This mug can be picked up at your resort food court.  You may refill your mug for FREE as many times as you wish throughout your stay only at your resort food court. It's also a great souvenir! My family drinks out of ours daily at home!

To check out more information on each of these Dining Plans, click HERE to see a great informative video! This video will show the ins and outs of how the plans work, as well as some great tips!
My family usually purchases the Disney Dining Plan, and recently enjoyed the Quick Service Dining Plan for FREE. That's right! Disney occasionally offers the Dining Plan as a promotion, for free! What better way to see if you would enjoy this benefit then getting it at no cost! Talk with your favorite Kingdom Konsultant Agent between now and September 29, 2012, and see if you would be eligible to receive this promotion!
Which Dining Plan seems best for your family? Do you purchase the Disney Dining Plan? What is the biggest benefit for you?

Cruising with a Baby: A Complete Guide

You took a baby on a cruise!? Yep, and I'd do it again knowing what I know now. So, say goodbye to months of research - Everything you need to know is here!! One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is planning what you need to bring. I wanted to share what worked for us, and hopefully help others who are planning their cruise! Remember, babies can only cruise after their 6-month birthday on sailings from the U.S. If you are going transatlantic, or have more than three days out at sea, they must be 12 months old by the first day of your cruise. Pre-Cruise   We flew to the cruise port, and I couldn’t bring all the food and snacks I needed, so I placed an Instacart order for pick up near the port. I chose Publix in Cocoa Beach which is a few miles from Port Canaveral. I placed the order a few days before we left home, and set the pickup time to 11:00 a.m. I ordered formula, a box of diapers, swim diapers, bottle brush, dish soap, baby food, and baby snacks. I also broug

Complete Guide to Disney's Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point

Disney's new Bahamian island destination, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is a pristine, secluded paradise reserved exclusively for Disney Cruise Line guests. The cruise port is located on the island of Eleuthera (pronounced uh-loo-tr-uh) at it's southern tip, amidst a nature preserve called Lighthouse Point. Far from any towns, Lookout Cay feels like a tropical oasis that is separated from the outside world by mangrove forests. The landscaping is gorgeous with flowers like plumerias, and tall swaying palm trees. Whether you want to just kick back and relax or go for a thrilling banana boat ride, this port has something for everyone. There are family friendly areas as well as those reserved specifically for adults. Expert Tip: If you want a view of the island from your stateroom, be sure to book a starboard (right) side stateroom. Disney Magic docked at Lookout Cay After disembarking your Disney Cruise ship, you'll cross the pier to the island on foot. (It looks longer in

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th
