Best Disney Resorts for Kids (Orlando)

Sharing is caring!

Walt Disney World Florida is not only home to the six magical theme and water parks, but it also has 34 on-site resorts, all with elaborate theming, decorations, and facilities. But which of them are the best Disney resorts for kids?

If it’s your first trip to Walt Disney World, or if you’ve never stayed on-site before, the hotel choices can be slightly overwhelming. To make your Disney holiday planning that little bit easier, I’ve narrowed down the top hotel resorts for different age groups, and I’ve also categorised them into luxury, moderate, and value prices. 

The hotels making this list are our favorites in terms of facilities, location and value for kids of all ages. Let us know your favorite in the comments below!

The value resorts are basic in terms of the rooms with the theming saved for outside the buildings. The moderate and luxury resorts have more theming in some rooms and around shared areas. The luxury resorts have more in-room amenities and more transport options between the parks and hotels. Some hotels offer firework views – which may be a bonus if you have tired little ones!

No matter where you stay in Disney, you’ll be sure to have a magical time, so with all that being said, let’s get into the best Disney resorts for kids of all ages.

Consider all these things when choosing which of the best Disney resorts for kids would be suit your family. If you don’t plan on spending much time in your resort and you prefer putting your money towards Disney merch, you may be better off opting for a value hotel. 

If you’re celebrating your honeymoon or if it’s your first or potentially only visit to Walt Disney World, then splashing out on a luxury hotel may make your trip even more special. 

The resorts are different from one another, but they do have some similarities. Firstly, a variety of complimentary buses, boats, skyliner and monorails run from the resorts to the parks. You can also hop on these transportation systems and head to other resorts to check out the scenery or to grab food at the restaurants. 

Complimentary movie screenings called movies under the stars are also available in all hotels as long as the weather permits. For movie schedules, it’s best to check with the front desk when you arrive at your resort. Some hotels have campfires every night with s’mores!

Located in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Resort Area is the All-Star Movie resort. This is one of the best Disney resorts for young kids due to the massive statues of some well-known Disney characters.

The centrepiece of the Fantasia Pool is Mickey in his classic blue magician’s hat shooting water cannons at swimmers down below and there is a smaller kiddie pool and water play area not far from the main pool area.

Caribbean Beach

Hotel Overview

The Caribbean Beach Resort in the Epcot Resort Area is a little slice of the Caribbean, right in the heart of Walt Disney World. 

Vibrant colours, lush greenery, and aspects from five distinctive Caribbean Islands influenced the design of the Caribbean Beach Resort. 

I must say, there is nothing quite like finishing a big day at Disney and returning to a resort that makes you feel like you’re in Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, Trinidad, and Aruba.  

Facilities

The Caribbean Beach Resort is split up into five different villages to mimic one of five beautiful Caribbean Islands. Within each village is a leisure pool where the entire family can cool off in a slightly more relaxed environment compared to the resort’s main pool. 

The larger Fuentes del Morro pool, which is themed like a colonial Spanish fortress, features two long waterslides and water cannons galore. The babies of the family can play in the smaller shipwreck area, sliding down the mini slides and avoiding a downpour from the large barrel at the top of the ship. 

Fuentes del Morro also has a 12-person spa pool, which is ideal for relaxing and unwinding after spending your day at the parks. 

Come nightfall, the Caribbean Beach Resort puts on a complimentary campfire like several other Disney hotels with marshmallow roasting, all before playing a movie under the stars on the Caribbean Cay Island.

Children, 4 – 12 years of age, have the opportunity to set sail on a pirate adventure cruise where they’ll spend the morning sailing the ports of the resort, listening to pirate stories, and searching for pirate booty. 

If your family enjoy being active while on holiday, you can rent bicycles from the resort and cycle around the resort promenade, take a scenic walk, or jog around the 0.6-mile jogging track, and even play a game of volleyball on the sand volleyball court in Martinique Village.

Centertown Market is a quick-service restaurant serving up a selection of exotic street foods for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The grab and go market close by is the perfect stop if you’re off to the parks in a hurry and want a quick bakery snack or coffee to tide you over till your next meal.
