Where you stay at Disney World shapes your entire trip, from how early you can enter the parks to how easy it is to get around at the end of a long day. This mini guide is designed to help you understand Disney’s on-site resort options clearly and confidently, without falling down a weeks-long research rabbit hole.
Instead of skimming endless blog posts or comparing hotels blindly, this guide breaks down Disney’s on-site resorts by tier and explains what actually matters when choosing where to stay. It focuses on convenience, transportation, perks, and overall vibe, so you can pick the resort that best fits your trip style, budget, and priorities.
Inside the guide, you’ll find:
A clear overview of Disney’s four resort tiers: Value, Moderate, Deluxe, and Deluxe Villas
Honest explanations of what differentiates each tier in terms of price, amenities, and convenience
Resort-by-resort summaries with transportation options, dining highlights, and recreation details
A breakdown of on-site guest perks and why they can make a big difference in your park days
Easy-to-reference transportation information, including buses, boats, Skyliner, and monorails
This guide is especially helpful if you’re deciding whether staying on Disney property is worth it for your trip, or trying to narrow down which resort tier makes the most sense for how you plan to spend your time.
The guide is delivered as a clean, easy-to-reference digital PDF sized for easy viewing on your phone (1080 x 1920 px).
IMPORTANT: This mini guide includes information already featured in my full guides. There is no need to purchase this in addition to those full guides.
This is not an exhaustive review of every hotel near Disney World. It’s a practical, experience-based resource meant to help you make a confident lodging decision and move on to the fun parts of planning.
Perfect as a standalone reference or as a quick refresher while planning your Disney stay.
Resort details and offerings updated as of Winter 2026.
