If you’re familiar with traveling to Walt Disney World then you know how important it is to plan ahead. As someone who frequents the Disney theme parks myself, I believe the more educated you are, the better. This includes knowing all the ways to save on a Disney World vacation.
Let’s face it: A trip to Disney World costs more than a pretty penny. The sticker shock can be brutal if you aren’t prepared. Fortunately, there’s almost always a way to save, including brand-new promotions to help you save on your resort stay. The latest offers from Disney World follow a previously announced perk for resort guests, making a 2025 vacation even more financially feasible.

Save up to $200 per night on a three-night, two-day package at Disney World
Many guests choose to book their Disney World resort hotel and theme park tickets together as a package. This makes for an easy and convenient one-stop-shop process, especially if you know you want to stay on Disney World property. If you’re considering a vacation package for 2025, this first promotion is for you. Known as the “Stay, Play, and Save” promotion, guests can save up to $200 per night on a three-night, two-day package at Walt Disney World.
The minimum length of stay required to redeem this offer is three nights, but you can book a trip for up to 14 nights and still be eligible. The amount of money you receive on your vacation package depends on the resort hotel you choose to stay in, which is roughly broken down by resort tier.

Enjoy Disney World water park admission for free in 2025
Disney World had previously announced a new incentive for guests to stay at its resort hotels in 2025. Starting on January 1, guests staying at select Disney World hotels will receive complimentary admission on arrival and check-in day at one of the Disney water parks: Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon (whichever is operating that day). To be eligible for this offer, your name must appear on the Disney World resort hotel reservation.
Planning your Disney World arrival day can be tricky, so this is a great perk if you need an activity after your plane lands. Between the water park promotion and the new resort hotel offers, a 2025 Disney World vacation may be a more financially feasible vacation plan for your family!
This water park offer isn’t the only perk available to guests staying at a Disney World resort. Guests can also take advantage of Early Theme Park Entry to each of the parks, easy access to complimentary transportation options to and from the parks, and more.
There are numerous ways to bring the cost down both ahead of the trip and while you’re at Disney World, so make sure to follow along with all of the latest news and tips before your next vacation.
