We continue our Resort Wars series with a showdown between two EPCOT-area favorites: Disney's BoardWalk Inn and the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve. Both resorts offer incredible access to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios, but they deliver completely different vacation experiences. BoardWalk Inn immerses guests in the charm and nostalgia of a turn-of-the-century Atlantic City boardwalk, complete with lively entertainment, unique dining, and one of the most iconic atmospheres at Walt Disney World. Meanwhile, Swan Reserve offers a more modern and luxurious approach, featuring some of the newest rooms on property, spacious family suites, and access to the extensive amenities, pools, and dining options of the Swan and Dolphin resorts. Throughout the episode, we compare the two resorts across seven categories, including theming and atmosphere, rooms and comfort, dining and drinks, transportation and location, recreation and amenities, value for money, and listener feedback. We discuss everything from the magic of strolling the BoardWalk at night and grabbing a drink at AbracadaBar to the benefits of staying in a sleek, contemporary room just steps from EPCOT. Will Disney's immersive storytelling and unmatched atmosphere help BoardWalk Inn secure the victory? Or will Swan Reserve's modern accommodations, impressive amenities, and strong value proposition prove too much to overcome? Whether you're planning your next Walt Disney World vacation or trying to decide where to stay for an upcoming trip, this episode will help you determine which of these popular Crescent Lake resorts is the better fit for your travel style.

We're talking about the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind ride, the Epcot margarita bar in Mexico that they visited more than once, and the Rose& Crown fireworks dinner that had their server in tears on her very last shift. There's also Cara finally making it to Beaches & Cream Soda Shop after years of trying, Bronagh accidentally high fiving Mickey Mouse when he was trying to kiss her hand, and their favourite hotels after staying across three Walt Disney World Resort Hotels.Oh, and the full breakdown of the Disney dining and drinks deal you need to know about before you book your 2027 holiday.Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets — a VIP preview of the biggest new ride of the summerGuardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind — still the ultimate ride and why it will always be number oneThe Epcot margarita guide — where to go, what to order and which one to make spicyDisney's BoardWalk Inn reviewed — why it's Cara's dream hotel and worth every bit of hypeOur favourite Hotels — Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Disney's BoardWalk Inn, Disney's Polynesian Village Resort and Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge Roundup Rodeo BBQ, Beaches & Cream Soda Shop, Rose & Crown and more — the restaurant round upDisney Dining and Drinks offer for 2027 — everything you need to know before booking, all in one placeBook your Hotel & Ticket package by 4th November 2026 for selected arrivals 3rd January - 19th December 2027 and enjoy FREE Disney Dining & Drinks, subject to eligibility, on selected meals when staying at selected Disney Hotels.

Send us Fan MailI just got back from a whirlwind three-day solo trip to Walt Disney World, and this episode is a full, honest recap of everything I experienced. This trip was quick, but it was packed in the best way, and I'm walking you through it all from start to finish so you can see what a short solo Disney trip really looks like.I share how this trip came together, from saying yes to a last-minute invite to navigating travel as a solo mom. I also talk about my experience flying out of a regional airport, why I continue to choose that option, and an important reminder about staying aware and trusting your instincts when traveling alone.We dive into all three resorts I stayed at in just three days, including Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, Disney's BoardWalk Inn, and Disney's All-Star Music Resort. I break down what each stay actually felt like, including the subtle refresh at Caribbean Beach, the convenience of the Skyliner, and my honest thoughts on the BoardWalk remodel. If you've been curious about the updated BoardWalk rooms, I go into detail on what stood out and what didn't quite meet expectations.At EPCOT, I talk through some of the biggest highlights of the trip, including riding Remy's Ratatouille Adventure in 2D and why it may still cause motion sensitivity for some guests, along with Frozen Ever After and the updated faces that truly change the experience of that ride. I also spent time at GEO 82 with friends, and I share what the space is really like, who it's best for, and why it stands out as a more elevated, adult-friendly experience inside the park.This trip also included some incredibly unique moments, like visiting multiple Club 33 lounges, navigating a rainy park day, and experiencing Disney in a different way through a VIP tour day. I talk about what those experiences were actually like, how the weather impacted the flow of the day, and what made those moments still feel special.One of the biggest themes of this trip was connection. I share what it was like to meet friends and fellow creators in real life, how that added a completely different layer to the trip, and why solo travel at Disney can feel both freeing and meaningful in a way that is very different from family trips.To wrap up the episode, I also share how we are planning for our upcoming Disney Cruise, including how we are navigating current airport concerns, why we are choosing specific travel routes, and how we are building flexibility into our plans. If you have travel coming up and are feeling unsure, this part of the episode will help you think through your options.If you love a detailed Disney trip report, are curious about solo travel, or want honest thoughts on what is new and changing at Walt Disney World, this episode is for you.Support the showHey Welcome to Well Hello Magic!Well Hell Magic Website Instagram YouTube  Pinterest Amazon Shop LTK ShopReady to Plan your Disney Vacation?Free Planning GuideJoin The Newsletter

We're continuing our March Magic 2026 series as we shift from rides to resorts and build the ultimate Walt Disney World Resort Bracket. We've ranked and seeded 24 resorts from across property — including Deluxe, Moderate, Value, and even Swan, Dolphin, and Swan Reserve — to determine which one truly deserves the crown. Using a mix of guest ratings, along with our own experiences, we evaluate each resort based on theming, amenities, dining options, location, transportation, and overall guest satisfaction. From iconic favorites like Polynesian Village Resort, Wilderness Lodge, and Beach Club, to fan-favorite values like Pop Century and Art of Animation, every resort earns its place in the tournament. We break down the full 1–24 seeding, highlight which resorts earned a first-round bye, and set up some very interesting opening matchups — including value vs deluxe battles, sleeper picks, and a few potential upsets that could shake up the bracket early. Along the way, we debate controversial rankings, question whether location outweighs theming, and discuss which resorts we think have the best chance to make a deep run. Which Walt Disney World resort is truly the best? Which ones are overrated, underrated, or primed for an upset? Let the madness continue! Download the bracket

A full breakdown of every Deluxe Resort at Walt Disney World — from the Magic Kingdom monorail resorts (Contemporary, Polynesian Village, Grand Floridian) to the Epcot resort area (Yacht Club, Beach Club, BoardWalk Inn), Animal Kingdom Lodge, and Wilderness Lodge Why location matters MORE than you think — and how staying Deluxe can transform your entire park strategy The truth about Club Level — Disney's most underrated (and underbooked) offering World-class dining you'll want to plan your whole vacation around: Victoria & Albert's, Narcoossee's, Topolino's Terrace, Citrico's, Jiko, and more Why Stormalong Bay might deserve its own episode The scoop on Deluxe Villa properties like Saratoga Springs, Old Key West, and Riviera Resort — and how non-DVC members can book them The secret walkability advantage of Congress Park at Saratoga Springs Whether you're a first-time Disney visitor or a seasoned parkgoer weighing your resort options, this episode gives you the insider knowledge to decide if a Deluxe Resort is right for your family's Disney vacation.

Today we head out to Philly to speak with Listener Rob about his amazing trip to Walt Disney World with his wife and three young girls! This trip was interesting because Rob wanted three different experiences in one visit, so he picked a different resort (and area) for each segment of the vacation! Hear his thoughts on all three resorts, as well as fun stories from the theme parks using Lightning Lanes and setting up for a very special viewing of Starlight! We also discuss some nice meals at places like 1900 Park Fare, Storybook Dining and more!

In this episode, Jess and Alex are sharing all the magic, insights, and travel tips they brought back from a recent media event at Walt Disney World. From exclusive behind-the-scenes tours to exciting new ticket and resort updates, they're joined by Megan—Travel Mom Squad's Disney expert—to talk about how to make a Disney trip more affordable, less stressful, and extra special using points and miles. What's New at Disney World? Big Updates & Summer Deals During the media event, Jess and Alex sat in on a panel with Disney execs and Imagineers who revealed upcoming changes and summer promotions—like 50% off tickets for kids (ages 3–9) and free dining plans for guests booking resort packages. They also shared how Disney is working to simplify the experience, with improvements to the Lightning Lane system and new family-focused resort programming.  Why Staying On-Property Might Be the Best Deal One of the biggest takeaways? Staying at a Disney resort may cost less than you think—especially when you consider perks like free transportation, early park access, and even character visits right in the hotel. The team shares highlights from a private resort tour, including a peek at value resorts like Art of Animation (with family suites for six!), the moderate Coronado Springs, and the deluxe Boardwalk Inn. Megan also breaks down recent stays at the Swan and Dolphin, All-Star Music, and off-property Hyatts—and why she's team Disney all the way. Making Disney More Affordable with Points & Miles Jess, Alex, and Megan walk through the credit cards they recommend for offsetting the cost of Disney, including the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card for erasing ticket purchases and American Express® Gold Card for dining. They also explain how to book hotels using points for on-site stays.  Park Tips, Lightning Lanes & Planning Strategies From early-entry tips to the best times to ride Peter Pan (hint: before 9am), this episode is packed with practical Disney advice. Megan also shares how she used the Southwest® Companion Pass to cut flight costs and why her family skipped Lightning Lanes altogether on some trips.  Planning a Disney trip this summer? This episode is packed with what you really need to know—straight from the Travel Mom Squad's latest Disney adventure. Hit play or share it with a Disney-loving friend!

Wondering how to celebrate Valentine's Day at Walt Disney World? We share the top six ways to celebrate Valentine's Day in style, plus a look at new Disney Parks wedding options and the new Disney Weddings gowns for 2024.New Disney Wedding Style Options Disney Weddings has added EPCOT with Spaceship Earth as a backdrop to its list of locations for in-park weddings at Walt Disney World.  Disney noted that the offering includes enhanced unique lighting displays on Spaceship Earth, choreographed to music and changing color patterns. EPCOT is now available to book for Disney weddings taking place in January 2025 and beyond. In case you were wondering, Disney in-park weddings offer a lot of potential setups. Pricing will rise into the hundreds of thousands, starting with a standard $40,000 ceremony fee and going up from there. You must use Disney transportation and so on. Weddings take place two to three hours after park closing. Ever wondered why Magic Kingdom was closing early one day for no apparent reason? Weddings can involved extravagent seating and couches along Main Street. The reception in from of the castle with tables elegantly designed. An underlit dance floor in front of the castle. Arrive by a trip down Main Street in Cinderella's Carriage and so on. Disney Wedding Gowns 2024 And if you're mortgaging the house for a Disney Wedding, then you have to have a Disney Princess inspired gown from the Disney Fairy Tale Weddings Collection, right? The 2024 line of Disney bridal gowns was just released and the gowns are, not surprisingly, stunning (and so is the photography being posted on social media by Disney). Sizes are available from 0 to 30 and gowns start at $1,799. Follow Disney Weddings on Instagram or Facebook if you want to see what all the buzz is about.  -- Top Six Ways to Celebrate Valentine's Day in Style at Walt Disney World How to Surprise Your Special Someone with a Magical Valentine's at Disney WorldSpa Treatment for TwoIf you are a couple who loves spas (or even if your significant other loves them and you want to make it special), the Grand Floridian Spa at Walt Disney World is a great spa where you can relax and unwind together. To book a treatment you can call a Spa Co-ordinator at (407) 824-3039 for more information on their couples options and other spa services. Hot Air Balloon RideIf you find it romantic to think of experiencing the "World" from high in the sky, head over to Disney Springs where you can board the Aerophile hot air balloon. This is a fun hot air balloon ride that floats 400 feet above the ground, offering great views of Walt Disney World (and beyond) day and night. You likely won't have the balloon to yourself on this one (it holds 30 people in total), but if you time it right you can catch a flight at sunset or during the fireworks displays for a little extra burst of romance and Disney magic. Cost is currently $30.00 per person (DVC and AP discounts may be available).Disney Springs Shopping SpreeIf your Valentine loves to shop, then why not surprise them with a Disney shopping spree at Disney Springs?! Gift your Valentine a gift card (or cash--which might be better for non-Disney shops) and accompany them on a shopping spree tour of Disney Springs! This is a particularly great gift if you don't normally like to spend time shopping, making it extra thoughtful and something your Valentine will truly appreciate it. Plus you have the option of making a day of it with a hot air balloon ride, treats and a romantic dinner!Romantic Carriage RideIs there anything more romantic than a horse-drawn carriage ride? Horse-drawn carriage rides are offered through the wilderness trails of Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort and also at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside. There aren't many things more romantic than snuggling up with your special someone in an old fashioned horse-drawn carriage through relaxing natural surroundings. The rides are approximately 25 minutes long and leave from Pioneer Hall at Fort Wilderness and Boatwright's Dining Hall at Port Orleans. Call Disney Reservations for more information: 407-939-7529.Romantic Dinner for TwoNo romantic Disney vacation together would be complete without at least one extra special dinner for two. While Disney World is known for its fun themed dining and character experiences, it is also home to some first-rate award-winning restaurants, many of which are ideal for a romantic dinner for two. You can choose from very formal experiences such as Victoria & Albert's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, to more relaxed--yet very elegant--surroundings such as Citrico's right next door or Narcoossee's, nearby. Other great choices include Via Napoli, Takumi-Tei and Monsieur Paul at EPCOT or The Boathouse at Disney Springs. Pick your personal favorite, or even better, make a surprise choice if you know a particular restaurant they love or want to try. Whatever your tastes, there is a great romantic spot for you somewhere around Walt Disney World. Bicycle Built for TwoFinally, for some casual but thoughtful romantic fun, a bicycle built for two is a romantic notion that you can do in a very practical way at Walt Disney World with your Valentine. Rent a surrey bike at Disney's Boardwalk Inn (or several other places around Walt Disney World) and you can enjoy a cozy bike ride side-by-side with your special someone. Riding along the Disney Boardwalk and adjacent area at night amidst the lights and activity of the surrounding area is a particularly romantic experience. Plus, you can enjoy dinner, a drink, dessert or even a nightclub after the ride at The Boardwalk--Thank You for Listening to the Disney Travel Style PodcastThank you very much for listening to this episode, we that you enjoyed it.

Today, Juliana Pónce shares the story of her ceremony at BoardWalk Inn's Croquet Lawn and reception at Atlantic Dance Hall. You'll hear how she and Nick saved money by choosing venues that need little decoration, renting silk bouquets, and forgoing transportation. This allowed them to incorporate one of their top priorities—Disney fireworks—in the form of a guest-pleasing EPCOT welcome party at UK Lochside, complete with a custom menu featuring dishes that honored the couple's Mexican heritage.

This week, Jennifer Brown shares the story of her BoardWalk Inn Conference Center ceremony at the Marvin Gardens Room  and reception at the East Promenade Ballroom. One of Jennifer's top priorities was bringing to life her vision for a lavish Enchanted Forest wedding theme, and today she shares how she was able to do this for less than half the cost of Disney's quote by using outside vendors for everything from floral and décor to transportation and even entertainment. This included draping the entire ballroom; bringing in prop gates, a light-up dance floor, and large trees; and hiring a trio of outside actors to pose as uninvited guests and a faux wedding planner à la Franck from Father of the Bride.
