We stayed at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa this trip, and I think this is one of those Disney resorts that doesn't always get the attention it deserves!

Here's why it's worth considering for your next Disney vacation!

**ROOM TO SPREAD OUT!** Saratoga Springs is a Disney Vacation Club resort, so you have options ranging from deluxe studios to spacious villas with multiple bedrooms. The larger villas have full kitchens and washers and dryers, which can be a HUGE perk for families!

**It's peaceful!** After a long, busy day in the parks, it's nice to come back to a resort that feels a little more relaxed. The grounds are beautiful, with walking paths, water views, and plenty of green space.

**Disney Springs is RIGHT THERE!** This is one of my favorite perks! Depending on where your room is located, you can walk to Disney Springs or take the boat. So many restaurants, shops, and entertainment options practically in your backyard!

**Great pools!** The resort has multiple pools, including the High Rock Spring Pool with a waterslide and the Paddock Pool with its own waterslide and splash area.

**More than just a place to sleep!** There's golf nearby, bike rentals, recreation activities, and plenty of places to explore around the resort.

And here's something else worth knowing: Saratoga Springs can sometimes be a really good value compared to other Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts, especially when promotions are available.

Now, there IS a trade-off. It's a large, spread-out resort, and you'll be taking buses to the theme parks. So if walking to a park or hopping on the skyliner or monorail is your priority, this probably wouldn't be my first recommendation.

But if you want extra space, a quieter atmosphere, and easy access to Disney Springs, **Saratoga Springs is definitely worth a look!**

Have you ever stayed here? Thoughts?

One of the cutest new things at Hollywood Studios is Olaf Draws!

You actually get to step into the role of a Disney animator and learn to draw a character with a little help from Olaf himself. It's such a fun experience!

And can we talk about how nice it is to sit down, relax, and enjoy some glorious air conditioning for a while? 😂 The room is adorable, the whole experience is so cute, and it's a great little break from the hustle and bustle of the parks.Plus, you get to take home your very own Disney artwork! Even if you're not exactly an artist, it's still so much fun.

Definitely add this one to your Hollywood Studios list!

In the last two days at Disney World, it has rained pretty steadily BOTH days. And you know what? We've still had a GREAT time!

Here's the thing about rainy days at Disney. A lot of people head out of the parks when the rain starts, which means lower crowds and shorter wait times! I'm talking 10- and 15-minute waits for rides that are usually over an HOUR! (See the pictures for proof. 😂)And it's COOLER! I'll take being wet over being hot and sweaty any day.

Now, there are plenty of things you can pack and ways to prepare for rainy park days. But honestly? I grab an umbrella, AJ puts on his hat, and off we go. 😂 We get wet. We ride the rides. We eat the snacks. We do pretty much everything we came to do.

Sure, sometimes a parade or outdoor show gets canceled or delayed because of the weather, and that's disappointing. But Disney does its best to keep things running whenever it's safe. My advice? Don't let a little (or a LOT of) rain ruin your Disney day!

Enjoy those shorter lines, take advantage of the cooler temperatures, splash through a few Disney puddles, and make the most of it. Because there's still PLENTY of magic to be found at Disney World, even when you're soaking wet. ❤️

So tell me, are you a grab an umbrella and keep going Disney person, or are you heading back to the resort when the rain starts? 😂

P.S. the animals on the safari are out in full force on rainy days. Active, out, and showing off their stuff.❤️
