We talk with Kayleen about a just-the-two-of-them Walt Disney World trip with her husband, Scott. This stay was a split stay between Old Key West and Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village that goes Geekin' full stink.
Hey Disney Geeks! This week, Curtis is joined once again by one of our favorite members of the Geekin' family — Kayleen — as she shares a Walt Disney World trip report from a rare just-the-two-of-them Disney vacation with her husband Scott. This trip had a little bit of everything we love around here… Rope drop strategy Split-stay resort talk Disney food and drinks Animal Kingdom stories Magic Kingdom nostalgia Lounge reviews And that classic Disney Geek energy where “relaxing” somehow still means walking 10 miles a day. Kayleen and Scott stayed at both Old Key West and Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village, tried several new experiences, and packed a TON into this couples getaway.

Highlights include: The laid-back Old Key West vibe Boat access to Disney Springs Exploring both Kidani Village and Jambo House Savannah-view room experiences Why Animal Kingdom Lodge continues to impress Disney fans And yes… The debate continues: How do you even PICK a favorite Disney resort anymore? Animal Kingdom Adventures This episode includes a really fun Animal Kingdom conversation featuring: Active animals during a late-afternoon safari Lions out on the rocks Giraffes walking directly down the safari path First impressions of Zootopia Together Thoughts on Disney attraction re-themes and updates Nomad Lounge hype finally becoming reality Kayleen also shares a fantastic first visit to Nomad Lounge, including: Churros Wings Great drinks Excellent Cast Member interactions And why the wait was absolutely worth it Hardcore Magic Kingdom Strategy Kayleen and Scott are NOT the “sleep in and relax” Disney couple. These two are: First bus people Rope drop people Lightning Lane people “Let's cross the park four times today” people Their Magic Kingdom strategy includes: Rope dropping Space Mountain Pirates multiple times Haunted Mansion multiple times Tron via Lightning Lane Tiana's Bayou Adventure Seven Dwarfs Mine Train And averaging roughly TEN MILES of walking per day That's elite Disney Geek behavior right there. Disney Food & Drinks Talk As always… we geek out HARD over food. This episode includes discussion about: Summer House on the Lake Lavender Haze cocktails Tilefish specials Boma Wailulu Pecos Bill Columbia Harbor House lobster rolls Flower & Garden snacks And planning your meals around future meals because… yes… that's what Disney Geeks do. The Heart of the Episode What makes this episode especially fun is hearing how Disney changes during a couples-only trip. It's slower in some ways… Faster in others… And full of those little moments where longtime Disney fans realize: “Yep… this is OUR kind of Disney trip.” There's also a lot of nostalgia here… From Main Street feelings… To memories of early Disney vacations… To conversations about classic attractions and reimagined favorites.

TravelinTiaras@gmail.com Featuring in This Episode (Part 1) A 3-Week Disney Adventure Kevin and Deborah's trip was built around something really special: Celebrating BOTH of their birthdays during the same trip A full 21 days / 21 nights in Florida A mix of relaxing time + Disney immersion This is Disney at a completely different pace. Resort Hopping & Strategy Kevin breaks down a smart split-stay approach: Old Key West (7 nights) Saratoga Springs (7 nights – home resort) Copper Creek at Wilderness Lodge (final 3 nights) And shares some real-world insights like: Why Old Key West surprised him (location + walking path) How Saratoga's layout actually works once you understand it Why that final resort stay at Wilderness Lodge feels like a “reward” at the end Hidden Gem: Walking to Disney Springs One of the best tips in this episode: The Old Key West nature walk to Disney Springs About a half-mile walk Scenic river views Connects directly to Saratoga Springs and Disney Springs A simple thing… but a huge upgrade to how you experience the resort. DVC Real Talk (After 10 Years) Kevin brings a ton of value here: Owning DVC for nearly a decade Why he says it has “paid for itself time and time again” The realities of buying resale vs. today's prices How he uses points to maximize longer stays If you've ever considered DVC — this is real, honest insight. February at Disney… Isn't What You Think One of the biggest surprises of the trip: The weather Cold mornings and evenings Wearing jackets in the parks Big temperature swings throughout the trip And maybe even more surprising… The crowds Kevin makes a great point:There really isn't a “slow season” anymore. Geek Meet & Disney Coincidences This is where the magic of the community shows up… Running into friends all over property Meeting up without even planning it And one incredible moment: Talking about meeting someone in the past… Turning around… And they're sitting right there again That's Disney magic you just can't plan. Kevin's Food Reviews (Unfiltered ) You knew this was coming… Highlights include: The Boathouse Great food… but pricey “Thimble-sized” sliders for $26 Cake Bake Shop Beautiful… but overpriced Honest take: not worth the hype Big takeaway: Portion size vs. value matters more than ever Shout-Out & Wrap-Up Kevin — This is exactly what the show is all about. Not just Disney tips… But hearing how trips evolve over time…How traditions build…And how Disney becomes part of your life story. And the best part? We're just getting started.

473 - Once you go Deluxe… you'll understand why. In this week's episode of the Disney Travel Secrets Podcast, #1 best-selling authors and Disney travel experts Rob & Kerri Stuart break down everything you need to know about Disney World's Deluxe Resorts — and why guests who stay at one find it nearly impossible to go back to a moderate or value resort. Let us take away the stress or planning your next Disney Vacation - START HERE What you'll learn in this episode: The fascinating history behind the FIRST two Disney World resorts (hint: they were both Deluxe, and they opened on October 1, 1971!) 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.
On this episode I'm joined by Debora and we review the 3 resorts we stayed on our Feb trip.Below are the 3 links to the room tours https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUoQieoDw7Z/?igsh=MWFlODB4NmhzYnNybg==https://www.instagram.com/reel/DU3GKX7DEBl/?igsh=b3VmcW91OWRlbnNnhttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DVH2xtqAt2p/?igsh=OG1vZ3VwNWtrYmRq
This week, Curtis is joined once again by Amy Rhodes, a longtime Geek who knows Disney World inside and out. Amy recently returned from a December trip just before Christmas — a sweet spot on the calendar that delivered lighter crowds, festive energy, and some truly unforgettable family moments. This wasn't a “do everything” trip. Instead, it was thoughtful, intentional, and full of heart — the kind of Disney vacation that reminds us why we keep going back.
We're putting Disney's Old Key West Resort head-to-head with Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa to see which laid-back villa resort comes out on top.Both resorts offer spacious accommodations, boat access to Disney Springs, and a slower, more relaxed pace than your typical theme park hotel—but they go about it in very different ways. Old Key West brings Florida Keys charm, oversized villas, and that “this feels like home” energy that longtime DVC fans love. Saratoga Springs counters with elegant Victorian theming, newer-feeling rooms, Treehouse Villas, and one of the best locations for easy Disney Springs access.We break things down round by round, comparing theming and atmosphere, room size and comfort, dining options, transportation and walkability, recreation and amenities, and overall value for your vacation dollars or DVC points. As always, we leave the final decision open during the episode so you can play along at home and decide which resort deserves the crown. Is bigger always better? Does location beat nostalgia? And which one truly delivers the best Disney resort experience?Grab your scorecard, settle in, and let the Resort Wars begin.
