  • That Dirty Disney Vacation Word You Might Not Want to Hear

    That Dirty Disney Vacation Word You Might Not Want to Hear
    Nov 5 2024
    A lot of people think that the prospect of doing laundry while on vacation is crazy. But in these days of airline luggage challenges and the desire to put everything into a carry-on bag, doing laundry while on vacation can actually help to free up space in your luggage.Should You Do Laundry on Your Walt Disney World Vacation? But is doing laundry on your vacation really worth the benefits? Is this a convenience you'd enjoy, or an irritation you'd rather leave at home. Laundry at Walt Disney World Hotels Did you know that every Walt Disney World hotel has a laundry room (or rooms) for guests? Hotels in all Walt Disney World categories offer paid self-serve laundry facilities that you are free to use on a first-come first serve basis. For example, Pop Century has three laundry rooms and they’re open 24 hours. Why Do Laundry When You’re on Vacation? Sure, doing laundry on vacation sounds like a chore that’s best left at home, but there are times when having access to a laundry room is a good thing. Even if you don’t want to pack less because you can do laundry mid-week and get a fully refreshed travel wardrobe, there are other reasons why you might need the laundry room. Ever spilled something (or had a child who did) on one of your favorite Disney outfits? Dark chocolate on a brand new white t-shirt? This is another scenario when a quick run to the laundry room can save the day. The faster you get that item in the wash, the better the chances that stain will come out. Forget the sink in your hotel bathroom, a washing machine will do a much better job. How Much Does it Cost to Do Laundry at Walt Disney World? While the exact cost can change, a load of laundry in a Disney hotel laundry room is usually around two dollars per load. You can buy soap as well, so it’s all provided in one place. When is the Best Time to Do Laundry at a Disney World Hotel? While these things can vary because you can never fully predict the crowd levels in a laundry room, early morning is often best time to do laundry at Walt Disney World. Most guests are off to the parks or off to breakfast, so the laundry rooms can be less busy at this time. Put in a load of laundry and go grab a coffee or quick service breakfast. Afternoon can be good as well, and you go spend a little time by the pool while your laundry is on. Later in the evening is often the busiest times for the Disney hotel laundry rooms, so bear that in mind. If the laundry room happens to be close to your room, then you can always drop by to see how busy it is. On a similar note, if you plan to do laundry during your Disney vacation, do a little advance scouting when you first get to the hotel to see which times are least busy in the laundry room. That way you will have a better idea of when may be the best time to do your laundry, when the time comes. Disney Deluxe Villas and Laundry One of the benefits of staying in a Disney Deluxe Villa is that the one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom villas all have washer/dryer units right in the room. Not only is this very convenient, but it is also free. Studio Villas do not have in-room laundry, but they are laundry room facilities in the building.Thank You for Listening to the Disney Travel Style PodcastThank you very much for listening to this episode, we that you enjoyed it.

  • Top Five Questions About What to Pack for Disney World in Winter

    Top Five Questions About What to Pack for Disney World in Winter
    Oct 22 2024
    If you’re traveling to Walt Disney World during the colder winter months, you may be wondering if there are certain things you need to pack for Florida in the winter.There are a few things about packing for Walt Disney World in winter that you may not have consideredWe answer the top five most common questions that we’ve been asked over the years from travelers visiting Disney World in the winter for the first time.Five Questions and Answers About Packing for a Winter Walt Disney World VacationThe five most common questions that you’re probably asking yourself if you’re traveling to Walt Disney World in winter for the very first time. 1. Will I need a heavy coat? You won’t usually need a heavy coat for Walt Disney World in the winter. Can it get cold enough for a ski jacket? Sure, it has happened. But generally, you should be fine with a jacket or hoodie, particularly if you plan to visit the parks or go out after dark. The Florida sun brings warmth in the winter, but once the sun sets you feel the cold a lot more. 2. Should I bring a swim suit? It’s usually cool during the winter months (December and January for example) and the Disney resort hotel pools are not crowded. Do people swim? Yes, some do. One option is to hop in the hot tub by the pool. That way you can keep warm and still get that outdoor pool feeling. So if you don’t mind swimming in cooler temps (or if your kids don’t), then packing a swimsuit is not a bad idea. Just remember you may need a warmer cover up when walking to and from the pool as the air will be cooler than summer months. 3. Will I need a poncho or umbrella? This is an interesting question because in the past we would have said no. It didn’t used to rain too much in the winter during our Disney World vacations, however, that has changed. We’re not fans of ponchos in the hot summer months, but when the air is cooler during the winter, a poncho is not a bad idea. If the weather calls for rain, then a rain jacket (which can double as your cool night jacket), poncho or small travel umbrella are items to consider. 4. Can I still wear shorts? If you are a shorts person and like the freedom and light packing that come with wearing shorts, then by all means you can get away with wearing shorts on a sunny winter day at Walt Disney World. You might need something a little more after the sun goes down, however, which brings us to our next point. 5. Should I pack jeans, long pants or leggings? Even when shorts are a great option in the sunny hours of the day, nighttime at Walt Disney World in the winter can be much cooler. We find that night temperatures can still be comfortable for shorts at times, but at others (when it gets colder), you will likely be far more comfortable with your legs covered (especially if it’s windy). So, we recommend that you bring at least one pair of leg coverings of your choice. It could be what you wear on travel day if you’re coming from a cooler climate, which will save luggage space (the same goes for your jacket, by the way).Top Tip: Check the Orlando Weather Before Your Leave As always, be sure to check to the weather at Walt Disney World on a local Orlando weather app the day before you leave in order to get the best forecast for your vacation period. That may help to tip the scale one way or another if you’re not sure about packing a certain item or two.Thank You for Listening to the Disney Travel Style PodcastThank you very much for listening to this episode, we that you enjoyed it.
