We're recording poolside at Disney's brand-new tower at the Polynesian Village Resort to talk all about the best Disney staycation resorts across several categories. Most people think of Walt Disney World as a place where you have to be in the parks from sunrise to fireworks, but we believe some of the very best Disney vacations happen when you never even step foot inside a park.For us, a Disney staycation is all about slowing down, relaxing, and enjoying everything the resorts have to offer. These aren't just hotels — they're destinations on their own. We're talking pools that feel like mini waterparks, restaurants that rival anything in Orlando, lounges with unbeatable theming, and hidden corners where you can kick back and unwind. Each resort has its own atmosphere, and some truly transport you to another world.In this episode, we're breaking it all down across several categories — from best pools and dining to most relaxing resorts, family favorites, and even a few hidden gems that often get overlooked. Whether you're planning your very first no-parks Disney getaway or you just want to know which resorts we think make for the perfect staycation, we've got you covered.

We're diving into an epic Disney Resort showdown as two fan-favorite moderates go head-to-head: Caribbean Beach Resort vs. Coronado Springs Resort. It's a battle of beaches and bridges, towers and tropical villages, as we break down each resort across seven key categories to help you decide which one is right for your next Walt Disney World stay.First, we introduce both contenders. Caribbean Beach — Disney's very first moderate resort — brings that bright, beachy island energy, complete with a Skyliner hub, colorful villages, and family-friendly vibes. Meanwhile, Coronado Springs enters the ring with Spanish and Southwest-inspired architecture, top-notch dining, and the sleek, deluxe-style Gran Destino Tower, offering business-class comfort without the deluxe price tag.We go round by round through theming, rooms, dining, transportation, recreation, value, and even listener input, using your votes to help crown a winner. From rooftop tapas at Toledo to Sebastian's Bistro's coastal charm, and from the Dig Site pool to the Fuentes del Morro splash zone, both resorts bring serious perks to the table.So, which moderate resort comes out on top? Tune in as we weigh the magic, the convenience, and the cost to settle the debate once and for all.

We're taking you on a flavorful adventure across Walt Disney World with three unique stops that deliver everything from hidden menu gems to over-the-top themed cocktails. We start at Jungle Navigation Co. LTD Skipper Canteen in Magic Kingdom, where we try the Enchanted Orange Dream — a refreshing, citrusy twist on DOLE Whip served with a playful candy rim. We also indulge in their off-menu Brazilian cheese bread (trust us, it's worth asking for), as well as two standout entrées: the Mess Hall Duck Fried Rice and the Nile Nellie's Noodle Bowl.Next, we head over to Disney Springs and drop into Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar for a mix of spooky snacks and creative concoctions. From deviled “zombie” eggs and mummy-wrapped sausages to the vibrant Cauldron Cooler and the nonalcoholic Snake Egg Surprise, this spot blends Indiana Jones-style theming with Halloween-ready flavor.Finally, we wrap things up at Beak & Barrel, the brand-new pirate lounge tucked into Adventureland at Magic Kingdom. With its moody décor, shareable plates, and immersive drinks served in skull mugs and topped with gold, it's already one of the most exciting new dining additions in the parks.

Welcome back to another fun-filled episode of Remy's Roundtable: The Florida Theme Park Podcast! This week, the Roundtable kicks things off with some mouthwatering talk as Remy asks Jen and Mike to share their favorite spots to grab a cheeseburger in Florida. From sit-down restaurants inside the theme parks to hidden local gems, the crew swaps stories about juicy patties, melty cheese, and those can't-miss toppings. They even dive into which fast food chains serve up the best quick cheeseburger fix when the craving hits. It's the perfect way to get hungry before jumping into all the theme park action!After the foodie fun, Remy covers The Latest Theme Park Updates with some major news from Walt Disney World. Over at Magic Kingdom, fans of the beloved classic Carousel of Progress will soon experience something truly special — the attraction is set to feature a brand-new Walt Disney animatronic at the very beginning of the ride. This exciting update will give guests a chance to see Walt himself welcome them into his timeless vision of progress, blending nostalgia with innovation in true Disney fashion. And if that wasn't enough, Cinderella Castle is preparing to roll back the clock with a stunning refresh: the park has announced that the castle will return to its classic blue and gray color scheme, a look longtime Disney fans will remember fondly from decades past.The updates continue with some bittersweet news out of Disney's Animal Kingdom. The Roundtable discusses the official closure announcement for the beloved but sometimes controversial attraction, DINOSAUR. After thrilling guests since 1998 with its time-traveling jeep ride back to the prehistoric age, the attraction will roar for the last time on February 1, 2026. That gives fans just over a year to make their final journey into the late Cretaceous era. The crew reflects on the ride's legacy, its unique thrills, and what its closure could mean for the future of Dinoland U.S.A.Next, it's time for another delicious edition of Mike's Munchies, where Mike takes the Roundtable to Summer House on the Lake at Disney Springs. Known for its bright, airy atmosphere and California-inspired menu, this spot offers everything from refreshing cocktails to indulgent desserts. Mike builds a full dining experience — an appetizer, entrée, drink, and dessert — and by the time the check arrives, the grand total rings up to $116 for one person. The Roundtable debates whether the price tag matches the experience, and Mike shares his take on whether Summer House should be added to your must-visit Disney Springs dining list.Then, buckle up for this week's Ride of the Week, as Remy shines a spotlight on Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Remy dives deep into the history of this high-speed indoor coaster, from its groundbreaking launch system that propels guests from 0 to 60 mph in just a few seconds, to the ride's unique partnership with legendary rock band Aerosmith. He shares Imagineering details, fun facts, and why this ride remains a fan-favorite after more than two decades. Remy also talks about his own recent visit to Hollywood Studios, where, during his day off around 5:20 p.m., a thunderstorm rolled in and shut down nearly every attraction in the park — a classic Florida theme park experience that locals and visitors alike can relate to!From burgers and dining adventures to theme park history and future updates, this episode of Remy's Roundtable: The Florida Theme Park Podcast is packed with everything fans love about the Florida parks. Whether you're a Disney diehard, a coaster junkie, or just someone who loves discovering great eats in and around Orlando, this episode has something for you.So grab your favorite snack, settle in, and join Remy, Jen, and Mike as they talk food, fun, thrills, and farewells in another can't-miss edition of Remy's Roundtable: The Florida Theme Park Podcast.https://linktr.ee/remysroundtable

We dive into our first stay at the new DVC Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort — and for the first time ever, we brought the dogs! From check-in to checkout, we're breaking down what it's really like to travel to Walt Disney World with your furry family members, including how the pups adjusted, what's included in Pluto's Welcome Kit, and why Fort Wilderness might just be the most peaceful spot on property to settle in and stay a while.We also talk through Disney's pet policy in full — which resorts allow dogs, how the booking process works, and what to expect when that $50 nightly fee kicks in. Then we get into the cabins themselves: the layout, the comfort, the thoughtful little touches, and how these redesigned spaces compare to other DVC options around property. Speaking of golf carts, we couldn't resist — and we're glad we didn't. We share how having one will totally change the vibe of your trip, made traveling with the dogs easier, and added a little extra fun to everything from fried chicken pickups to late-night loops through the campground.From there, we head into classic Fort Wilderness territory: scavenger hunts, gem mining at the Bike Barn, and a perfect mix of old-school charm and new family memories. We talk about meals at the cabin, including an easy homemade breakfast and a fried chicken feast from P&J's Southern Takeout that might still be one of the best values on Disney property.And of course, it wouldn't be a Main Street Magic episode without snacks around property. We'll tell you which ones were worth it (looking at you, monkey bread), which surprised us (hello, watermelon pop), and which ones we're still dreaming about (yes, that Lunchbox tart deserves the hype). We also wrap things up with a trip to Toothsome at Universal for a massive Cookie Jar sundae and one of the sweetest finales we've had in a while.Whether you're thinking about booking a cabin, bringing your pup, or just want to hear about monkey bread and golf cart joyrides, this one's packed with Fort Wilderness magic.

Instead of reviewing the restaurant after the fact, we did something different — we hit record right at the table so you could hear our real-time thoughts as the evening unfolded. From the moment the appetizer arrived to the last sip of our mocktails, every reaction, laugh, and side conversation was captured live.We each ordered something different, from handmade pasta entrées crafted with heirloom family recipes to creative zero-proof drinks that gave the night a refreshing twist. Along the way, we share our honest takes on presentation, portion size, service, and overall atmosphere. You'll hear the clink of silverware, the banter over the check, and the little details that make dining at VIVO a uniquely immersive experience.But of course, because it's us, the night also went a little sideways — leading to a surprisingly deep (and funny) conversation about VIVO's bathrooms, which turned out to be some of the most unusual we've ever seen at a theme park restaurant. By the end, we're not just talking food, but also sinks, stalls, and the unwritten etiquette of handwashing.If you've ever wondered what it's really like to dine at VIVO Italian Kitchen™, this episode delivers the flavors, the fun, and even a few unexpected laughs.

We're hitting record from some of Walt Disney World's most stunning deluxe resorts while answering a lightning round of listener-style questions all about the podcast, Disney, and beyond! From the first trip that made us truly fall in love with the parks to the spark that turned that passion into nearly 800 episodes, we're pulling back the curtain on the moments that shaped Main Street Magic.We'll share what episode felt like a milestone, our favorite collaborations, and even the bloopers that had us cracking up. We'll debate which Magic Kingdom resort we'd actually live in, which EPCOT pavilion we'd move into for a week, and the bold Disney hot takes we'll defend to the end. Plus, we dive into what recording inside an attraction might look like, the series we're excited to launch next, and where we'd host a dream live show.Along the way, we reflect on what we've learned about each other, which Universal land secretly rivals Disney, the snack that needs to be fired, and what hitting 800 episodes means to us. It's a mix of memories, milestones, and mayhem—recorded in the heart of deluxe Disney magic.

We're kicking off a brand-new series: Resort Wars — where Walt Disney World resorts go head-to-head, and only one can walk away with the crown! First up, it's a Value Resort throwdown between Disney's Pop Century and Disney's Art of Animation.Pop Century opened in 2003 and celebrates the nostalgia of the 1950s through the 1990s with larger-than-life icons and over 2,800 rooms. Meanwhile, Art of Animation debuted in 2012 with immersive theming from beloved Disney and Pixar films, offering standard Little Mermaid rooms and spacious family suites themed to Cars, The Lion King, and Finding Nemo.We pit these two fan favorites against each other across seven battle rounds — including theming & atmosphere, rooms & comfort, dining, transportation, recreation, overall value, and listener feedback. Who takes the win for pool bars and food courts? Which resort is more budget-friendly? And where will your family find the perfect blend of magic and convenience?Plus, we share results from our listener poll and highlight firsthand experiences and opinions from our amazing community to help settle the debate.Whether you're planning your next Disney vacation or just love a good Disney debate, this episode is packed with insight, tips, and a few laughs along the way.

We recorded a full “live dining” review right from our table — and let's just say The Edison gave us plenty to talk about (and sweat over).This wasn't your average restaurant recap. We hit record at the table and let the conversation flow — capturing our unfiltered reactions, food-fueled tangents, and, yes, even the spice-induced meltdowns in real time. From the second our zero-proof drinks arrived, we were in review mode, starting with the Heart & Soul and LZP mocktails — both creative, refreshing, and worthy of sipping slowly.Then came the standout: the Maryland Blue Crab Dip. Hot, creamy, packed with flavor, and shockingly legit for being in Florida, this dish brought us straight back to Chesapeake Bay roots. The naan was warm and soft, the crab flavor spot-on, and the addition of a side of tortilla chips was the cherry on top (or the crunch on the bottom?).Finally, we tackled the Flavors of Florida Hot Honey High Voltage Chicken Sandwich — and it lived up to the voltage warning. Spicy, sweet, peppery, and surprisingly cohesive, it might not be for the faint of heart (or weak of tastebud), but it's a bold, fiery experience we won't forget.Would we do another live dining episode? Absolutely. Would we get that crab dip again? Without hesitation.
