Downtown Disney is a great location to get your shopping done, grab a bite to eat and enjoy various entertainment options. Divided into 3 sections, the Marketplace, Pleasure Island and the West End each offers unique experiences – and the best part…there is no admission to stroll the area.
On the Marketplace end of the shopping district kids can enjoy the dancing fountains or play at the Lego store. There is great shopping to get most all of the items you may have seen at the theme parks and even a few extras such as items in the Art of Disney and of course everyone can partake in treats from Ghiardelli’s!
The area formerly known as Pleasure Island offers some unique options as well including a Harley Davidson shop and Raglan Road Irish Pub. New stores and restaurants are being added and will be sure to be an even greater adventure in the future.
The West End also offers some great eats and entertainment. The House of Blues, DisneyQuest, Cirque du Soleil, and the AMC movie theaters are only a few of the options available.
Make sure to make time for Downtown Disney during your next Walt Disney World adventure!

Are you a Disney fanatic or just an occasional visitor? For many families a Disney vacation is an annual or even bi-annual event. And for some its hard to understand why…so here’s a list of the top five reasons we think a Disney vacation is a good one – even every year!
5. Disney Dining – For many families its all about the food, or at least the characters! Character dining options and signature dining experiences are the hallmark of many family visits.
4. New Attractions – Disney provides consistency….but also changes it up a bit. Adding new attractions and having events such as the Food and Wine Festival or the Flower and Garden Festival gives guests something new to explore with some of the old favorites available along the way.
3. Different Resort Options/Same Location – Looking for a luxurious vacation get a way? or maybe something with a more Polynesian feel? No matter what you are looking for (or what budget) there are options for every taste, allowing guests to have a slightly different vacation experience every year.
2. Family Friendly (and more) – Disney is all about family, but…if you need a romantic night away they have you covered as well. Disney does cater to its youngest client, but also makes a comfortable environment for everyone. Traveling with or without kids, you will find many entertainment options.
1. Safety/Courtesy/Show – This is the big one. Feeling safe, the attention to detail and the friendliness of the staff make this a great vacation choice because of the consistency in these areas. While there are many other places to vacation, this is the one spot you know that will have these qualities year after year and if you are going to spend you hard earned money on a vacation why not do it somewhere you know you can enjoy it!
