Well, my friends, the perfect Disney resort really does exist! Welcome to Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge, opening July 1, 2027.
This is the retreat that your whole family, from toddlers to grandparents, will never forget. This resort literally touches every single thing you could possibly want, starting with the incredible theming!
It brings us back to nostalgic Disney with some of our favorite nature stories, such as Bambi and Pocahontas, while also bringing in newer favorites like Encanto. You’re going to want to explore this resort from head to toe, because it’s literally going to feel like you’ve stepped into this amazing land of nature!
The recreation here is going to guarantee that you won’t want just one full resort day. You’re probably going to want several! From a zero-entry pool and splash pad perfect for the smaller kiddos to a lazy river that all ages, especially teens and adults, are going to love, you’re literally going to feel like you’re on a vacation within a vacation. Two vacations in one! It’s basically glamping at its finest.
You’ve got awesome dining options, from more upscale waterfront dining at Moonglade to casual options. There’s going to be something for everyone! Enjoy a cold beverage at the Branch and Brush lounge, with a chandelier that shifts through the colors of the seasons, or grab an amazing latte or specialty coffee at Bay Lake Provisions.
Now, the only debate is going to be what kind of room to book! From studios to one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas with full kitchens and laundry, there are so many options.
Then you have the Hidden Willow Presidential Suite, where you can live like Pocahontas while getting some words of wisdom from Mother Willow herself! Or, if you really want to take glamping to a whole new level, you can stay in one of the freestanding A-frame lake houses with your own private, water-facing porch.
You’ve also got club-level options here for that extra concierge experience, with breakfast, your own coffee and mimosa bar in the morning, midday snacks, evening hors d’oeuvres, and, of course, beer, wine, champagne, and even unlimited Mickey bars! You could not go wrong with any of these accommodations. The hardest decision is going to be which one you want to start with first!
And the location? Magic Kingdom is right around the corner! You’re just a short boat ride away, with buses to the other parks, so you can enjoy this amazing retreat while still being close to all the Disney fun.
Which also means, yes, you’ll be able to see the fireworks from your resort and enjoy the classic Electrical Water Pageant at night! Even a day spent hanging out at the resort is still going to have those touches of magic.
This is truly the ultimate in Disney resorts. It’s going to bring together all ages and generations of your family and give you such a special experience.
When you leave, the crowds, the lines, and the stress aren’t going to be what’s on your mind. You’re going to be thinking about the memories you made at this unforgettable resort.
Your only stressor is going to be: when can you come back?!
