Disney4me Posted August 27 Report Posted August 27 There are a number of advantages to staying at a Disney Resort during your Disney World vacation. Beach Club Resort If you stay onsite, you can get benefits like Early Theme Park Entry each day and the 7-day booking window for Lightning Lanes. You’ll also be closer to the parks, and you can enjoy free transportation. But this summer, there was another added perk for Disney Resort guests, and soon it’s going away! From May 26th, 2026 through September 8th, 2026, Disney World offered free water park entry to resort guests on their check-in day. This meant that if you didn’t already have plans for your arrival day, everyone staying in your hotel room could get into one of Disney World’s two water parks (Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon) for free, as long as they were open! Blizzard Beach This perk was available throughout the entirety of 2025, but for 2026, it was changed to be only available during the summertime. Throughout the summer, both water parks have been open at the same time, which is often not the case. They typically take turns operating, with only one open at a time. Typhoon Lagoon This perk has been a great way to get more visitors into the water parks, and it’s an easy way to spend your arrival day so that you don’t have to purchase an extra park ticket. Keep in mind that the water parks are open fewer hours during the day than the theme parks, so if you want to take advantage of this offering, you may have to change when you arrive. Blizzard Beach But alas, once September 9th hits and Cool Kids’ Summer comes to an end, this perk will no longer be available. The good news is that Disney has confirmed it will return for summer 2027. We can’t wait! Follow us at the Disney Food Blog for more Disney news, updates, tips, and tricks!
