Right here’s what we discovered for finest obtainable charges for this 2025 low cost:
This search is for the primary week of September 2025, which is a part of the Worth price season at Walt Disney World. On the rack price chart spectrum, this is without doubt one of the least costly instances to go to Walt Disney World in 2025. Cheaper dates might be discovered all through January and February 2025, and barely greater (however nonetheless comparatively cheap) charges can be found in early March, Could, and August 2025.
Friday by Sunday nights are all going to be costlier, and fewer constant. Basically, Friday and Saturday would be the most priciest days of the week, with Sunday by Thursday costing much less–however nonetheless greater than Monday by Wednesday nights. Vacation weeks are additionally costlier. Principally, room charges are greater any time when youngsters are out of college.
To maximise financial savings, you’ll must e-book 5-nights, that means that it’ll essentially embrace at the least a pair nights that aren’t absolutely the least expensive. Nonetheless, as famous above, you aren’t required to remain 5 nights. In case you e-book 1-4 nights, you’ll merely save 5% much less at most resorts and for many dates. It’s 5 nights or longer that “unlocks” the additional 5% off, so to talk.
We point out this for many who are contemplating cut up stays between each Walt Disney World and Common Orlando for the sake of experiencing Epic Universe. The entire level of a deal like this one, from Disney’s perspective, is to maintain folks on-site longer and seize extra of their trip time and income. However you don’t essentially profit from the additional financial savings, at the least should you have been initially planning on doing weeknights at Walt Disney World and skipping weekends.
For extra on timing your journey to coincide with the bottom costs, see When’s Least expensive to Go to Walt Disney World? That covers value will increase and different variables that influence the price of a trip past simply room charges.
We already harassed this within the Free Eating Low cost for Summer time 2025 evaluation, however we wish to reiterate {that a} room-only low cost goes to supply superior financial savings for lots of events. That’s particularly the case with this one for events staying 5 nights or longer.
All we will supply is sweeping generalizations–you’ll completely wish to do the mathematics to your personal distinctive circumstances–however as a normal matter, room-only reductions are higher for smaller events staying at higher-tier resorts. When evaluating these two reductions, you wish to take a look at occasion dimension, visitor ages, and room price.
Free Eating is finest for many who can maximize the variety of visitors staying in a single room and reduce their rack price resort price. Conversely, a room-only low cost tends to be higher for solo vacationers and {couples} at greater priced motels–in addition to events with lighter eaters (bear in mind, the Disney Eating Plan is just value as a lot as you’ll use it, which isn’t essentially its full face worth).
Once more, these are generalizations and never onerous and quick guidelines. We simply wish to reiterate this as a result of there’s a variety of attract in Free Eating. In any case, who doesn’t love one thing that’s FREE?! However in actuality, there’s no such factor as a free lunch–you’re giving up a room-only low cost to get that ‘free’ Disney Eating Plan. Regardless that it’s the extra boring low cost, a variety of instances, the room-only deal is the higher particular supply.
The opposite factor to maintain behind your thoughts when evaluating this Keep Longer & Save Extra deal to Free Eating is the probability of the Multi-Day Magic Low cost Walt Disney World Ticket returning for 2025. To be clear, that hasn’t been introduced and even teased but, however we view its return as inevitable–particularly with Epic Universe opening. That ticket is Disney’s finest device to forestall attendance decline at Animal Kingdom and EPCOT.
With Free Eating, you’re required to buy a (full priced) Park Hopper ticket. With this room-only low cost, you should buy that discounted ticket–or any ticket deal (see our Information to Saving Cash on Park Tickets at Walt Disney World).
That’s an enormous factor that journeys lots of people up with Free Eating–once more, it’s not really free meals with no strings connected. C’mon, that is Disney–do you actually assume something that good is actually free?! As all the time, we’ll take the versatile supply and the flexibility to save lots of extra on tickets, however that’s simply us. In case you’re going to return out away forward with Free Eating, it is best to go along with that. In case you’re borderline, it is best to give severe thought to a distinct supply.
My evaluation of this low cost is generally optimistic, however not fairly pretty much as good as the primary wave of final 12 months’s comparable low cost. Not on paper, at the least. For one factor, we’ve already seen this deal up to now 12 months–so it’s not precisely surprising or unprecedented.
For an additional factor, this deal was higher final 12 months. It was really launched twice then, as soon as on January 3 for journey dates from March 25 to July 7 and July 8 to October 3. That was a twice-tiered deal, with greater financial savings for longer stays in the course of the second set of dates. That means you could possibly save as much as 35% off for 5-night or longer stays from July 8 to October 3. (As much as 30% for the primary set of dates.)
That deal was extremely in style. A lot so, in actual fact, that Walt Disney World “ran out” of room stock pretty shortly, and pulled the deal from the web site. I’m not fairly positive when, sorry. The DTB Archive reveals reader complaints about availability nearly instantly after which notes that offers had been eliminated early from DisneyWorld.com, however not when that occurred.
Regardless, the particular supply was re-released on April 9, this time as a Keep Longer & Save Extra deal for July 8 by October 3–so solely the second set of dates. The 2025 model of the deal is considerably just like that April 9 particular supply.
To make sure, the 2025 Keep Longer & Save Extra particular supply continues to be normal public deal by long-term historic requirements–simply not on par with its counterpart launched on January 3 of final 12 months. That one was wonderful, and pretty unprecedented. Which might be why it offered so nicely and was pulled! It’s additionally honest to level out that deal was higher on paper, however not all the time in observe. Availability was very restricted, and we’re really seeing higher (sensible) financial savings at a number of resorts with the 2025 incarnation of the deal!
Not that any of this issues because you don’t have a time machine, however I nonetheless discover it fascinating how offers stack as much as each other from a historic perspective.
It’s additionally fascinating that, on the identical time Walt Disney World provides a higher deal to Annual Passholders (as in comparison with final 12 months) throughout a few of these identical dates, they’re providing a lesser low cost to most people. You’d assume they might’ve at the least matched the primary Keep Longer & Save deal from January 3 of final 12 months, particularly with Epic Universe opening this summer time!
This means just a few issues to me. The primary is that Disney received too aggressive with this deal final 12 months, providing extra of a reduction than was “mandatory” to hit occupancy targets. I feel this a lot was evident final 12 months when the particular supply was pulled early and changed with the identical deal however not pretty much as good a few months later, however this additional reinforces that notion.
Second, that Disney CFO Hugh Johnston was not mendacity when he stated early bookings are barely stronger for Summer time 2025 than final 12 months. Maybe Walt Disney World actually is right with its “rising tides lifts all ships” thesis. Or perhaps there’s already a ton of enthusiasm for Disney Starlight Evening Parade. Possibly each.
I’m nonetheless considerably skeptical that Walt Disney World will really profit from Epic Universe, particularly from a lodge occupancy perspective, however we’d in all probability be seeing a greater low cost right here if it have been inaccurate. The proof is within the pudding, as the youngsters say. (It’s additionally nonetheless early and issues may change. Common nonetheless has not totally rolled-out Epic Universe tickets or its personal slate of 2025 particular provides.)
Lastly, that Walt Disney World goes to embrace value discrimination methods in its strategy to coping with Epic Universe. It’s in all probability no coincidence that Annual Passholders–a gaggle of not simply Disney followers, however theme park followers as a complete–are getting a deal that’s higher than final 12 months, whereas common vacationers have a barely worse supply. Maybe that is Walt Disney World recognizing it’s going to want to do extra to enchantment to extra passionate followers, a lot of whom aren’t simply obsessed with Disney, however theme parks, typically.
It’s additionally potential that that is all over-analysis and Walt Disney World is mixing up approaches to see what works finest. Nonetheless, this normal public supply for 2025 not being higher than final 12 months’s preliminary launch says one thing.
Again to this particular keep longer & save low cost, there are some excellent offers available. All Stars for ~$150, Pop Century for $167, Coronado Springs for $217, Port Orleans for underneath $250, and several other Deluxe Resorts for underneath $400 per evening, that are comparatively cheap charges.
Specifically, Animal Kingdom Lodge for $315 per evening; Up to date for $388 per evening; and the Crescent Lake Resorts for round $400 per evening. The lodges are all the time private favorites, and the lately redone rooms there are powerful to beat. Similar with BoardWalk Inn…whereas the Up to date’s new rooms are fairly removed from my favourite, but it surely’s powerful to beat the situation inside strolling distance to Magic Kingdom! A few of these costs are literally higher than what we noticed on Jan. 3 of final 12 months, particularly for Deluxe Resorts.
Worth and Reasonable Resorts have been all higher final 12 months, however these financial savings are nonetheless powerful to beat just about in every single place besides Caribbean Seashore. Below $150 per evening for the All Stars–with the brand new rooms, Early Entry, transportation, and free parking–is a particularly reasonable value, in our view. Ditto the Moderates for underneath $250. If you will discover it, Pop Century is a superb choose at ~$167 per evening. I’d take that and Skyliner entry over decrease costs on the All Stars, however to every their very own!
In the end, that is one other low cost that’s fairly good by historic requirements and positively higher what we have been seeing in 2021-2022 (just about nothing!), however nonetheless manages to fall barely wanting expectations. Maybe that’s a “me downside” as that is on par with what was launched final 12 months, and it’s not prefer it was a banner 12 months for Walt Disney World. I figured they might’ve discovered from that and felt a better sense of urgency given the opening of Epic Universe.
This ought to be an fascinating saga to comply with, and it’s nearly sure that we haven’t seen the top of Walt Disney World’s efforts to woo again former followers, compete with Common Orlando, and pull “levers” to incentivize extra demand and visitor spending. If bookings find yourself being delicate for 2025, it’ll be fascinating to see what kind of extra distinctive promotions (past room reductions) are launched for the second half of 2025…it positive seems like issues are trending in the proper path for much more aggressive provides! We will likely be intently monitoring what’s launched and will notify subscribers of our free e mail publication when any Walt Disney World reductions are launched or rumored!
