Your Walt Disney World Getaway

two resorts, one magical week

6 Days / 5 Nights  ·  December 15 – 20, 2027  ·  3 Park Days

A Note From Erica

I've put together two great ways for your group to stay together at Walt Disney World: two rooms side by side at Pop Century, or everyone under one roof in a Family Suite at Art of Animation. Both are right on the Disney Skyliner and include the same 3 park days.

Below you'll find each option with its total, a side-by-side look at the resorts with your two little ones in mind, and what it would cost to add a dining plan or Memory Maker.

with so much love, Erica

Side by Side

How the Two Resorts Compare

Pop Century and Art of Animation are neighbors, so getting around is the same from both. The big differences are the room setup and the pools.

Getting Around

This one's a tie. Both resorts are served by the same Disney Skyliner route and by complimentary Disney buses.

Optional Add-On

Add a Dining Plan

A dining plan prepays your meals so there's one less thing to budget once you arrive. The cost to add is the same with either option and covers all 4 adults for all 5 nights. Your babies don't need a plan, since plans cover guests ages 3 and up. Meal credits roll over day to day, so a light day can turn into a bigger one later.

Optional Add-On

Memory Maker

Memory Maker is Disney's all-inclusive photo package. Disney PhotoPass photographers capture your family all over the parks, and you download every single photo and video.

  • 3Ride photos from 15 attractions, captured automatically

Why I recommend it: Your babies' first Disney trip only happens once! With Memory Maker, a pro photographer captures their first character hugs and those castle moments, and all four of you get to be in the pictures instead of behind the phone. One price covers both families.
