AVERAGE NIGHTLY RATES FOR DISNEY WORLD HOTELS

What the Walt Disney World Resort hotels cost per night, on average.

There are several rate seasons that Disney World uses to determine the nightly cost of a hotel room, mostly based on demand.

It’s important to know that Disney World is price-controlled. Whether you book it yourself, through a travel agent, or even a travel wholesaler, the price is going to be the same for everyone.

Don’t stress over nightly rates

Every day I talk with clients who have these nightly rate charts from various websites - and they have gotten themselves so overwhelmed, they’re ready to give up. Don’t drive yourself crazy over this. In the end, Mickey gets your money anyway. And that’s ok! We want him to show us a good time.

The best way to simplify your Disney vacation is to book a Disney World package - with a travel agent who is going to bundle the room and tickets for you with one low, refundable deposit. Plus you’ll get professional advice along the way.

And when you book with me, I’ll price-watch your reservation, even after you book your vacation. If a better price or offer becomes available, I’ll make the change for you!

The average Disney World vacation package costs about $4,500. Keep in mind this is the average - some Disney vacations cost more, others cost less.

Think big picture when it comes to Disney packages

My point is this. Think big picture, and don’t become obsessed with individual nightly rates. There are too many variables that affect the price anyway.

For example, you might find a week with a lower hotel rate, but ticket prices cost more, or airfare is higher. It seems that if one vacation component is cheaper, the other costs more.

So don’t drive yourself crazy looking for the cheapest time to go. Instead, do this…

The best way to budget your Disney vacation:

  1. Decide on the time of year that you want to go. Traveling when you want has more value than saving a couple of bucks. If you don’t like heat and humidity, don’t come in August just to save a little money. That would be a poor value because you’re going to be uncomfortable.

  2. If price is your primary concern, avoid holiday weeks because they cost significantly more. Also, February, March, and April cost more because so many people want to visit Florida for spring break. Summer and fall cost less.

  3. Be realistic about the hotel category you can afford. If your package is coming out too high, try a different hotel category or try a Disney Good Neighbor [off-property] hotel. I have a list of great offsite hotels that still allow you to book Disney World packages.

Below you’ll find the average nightly rate for the Walt Disney World hotels.

This is provided to give you a general idea of cost but rates can be lower if there’s a hotel offer, or even higher if the dates fall near a holiday.

A travel agent can help you find a great time to go if saving money is your primary goal.
