2026 Disney World Resort Hotel Prices

2026 RESORT HOTEL PRICE SEASONS AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

The material below shows Walt Disney World resort hotel price seasons at different times of the year in 2026. (For 2025 hotel prices, see this.)

Disney World resort hotel prices can be almost twice as high during some periods as they are at others. The information on this page helps you identify lower and higher cost periods.

Disney has three price classes among its hotels: value, moderate, and deluxe resorts.

At the values and moderates, in 2026 the lowest prices are in two periods: early January into early February, and mid-August into early September. Prices at the moderates are also reasonable from the end of April into the lower-priced August period.

At the deluxes, prices are low all summer long, especially from early July through early September, with the very lowest prices of the year beginning mid-August.

While December 2026 prices are not yet out, the highest prices at all resorts will be in December, particularly the second half.  Other particularly higher priced periods include from early February through Easter week (early April), and various shorter periods associated with major and Disney-defined holidays: Memorial Day, the 4th of July, the end of August, the beginning of October, the end of October/Halloween, and Thanksgiving week. Some variations to this are in the details below.

In the rest of the material below, I focus on the three resort hotel price classes of value, moderate and deluxe in turn. I compare 2026 hotel prices over the year through November (December prices are not out yet) for each hotel class to that class’s lowest price of 2026, typically in its “value season” in parts of January and February or “Value 2” season in later August.

Grouping of dates is based on “price seasons,” a grouping tool Disney World no longer makes public, but which can be identified analytically, and named (sorta) based on past practices. Disney charges based on the actual price of the actual nights, so if your visit straddles price seasons, you’ll pay the prices of each price season.

The charts average prices (including taxes) for each resort’s lowest-cost rooms over the next seven nights, by arrival date.  This averaging over seven nights eliminates what would otherwise be incomprehensible bumpiness from Thursday/Sunday and/or Friday/Saturday upcharges. Within each price class, the charts show three different resorts. For exact prices by night by room type by date, see MouseSavers.com.

2026 DISNEY WORLD RESORT PRICE SEASONS: VALUE RESORTS

The Disney World value resorts see their lowest 2026 prices for stay dates in early January through early February, and mid-August through early September.

The highest prices are for stay dates in the rest of February through mid-April April, and mid-November through New Years.

The lowest or near lowest prices of the year–value season prices–are offered 1/4 through 2/4/2026, and are 0-5% higher than the lowest of the year, except

  • Prices are 5-10% higher 1/9 to 1/11

Spring season prices 2/5 through 2/12: 21-23% higher than the lowest of the year

2026 DISNEY WORLD RESORT PRICE SEASONS: MODERATE RESORTS

The Disney World moderate resorts don’t see the strong swings in prices that the values and deluxes do. They see their lowest 2026 prices for stay dates in early January through early February and in mid-August through early September, In addition, they see before the August dates a long sweep of low-ish prices starting in late-April.

The highest prices are for stay dates in later February through most of April, and mid-October through New Years.

The near lowest prices of the year–the value season–are offered 1/4 through 2/4/2026, and are 0-3% higher than the lowest of the year, except

  • Prices are 3-7% higher 1/9 to 1/11

Regular season prices 2/5 through 2/12: 12-16% higher than the lowest of the year

  • Prices are 20-27% higher 10/29 to 10/31

Thanksgiving season 11/19 through 11/27: 29-34% higher

Prices are not yet out for December 2026, but based on past practices I expect the first part of the month to be average, the middle third well above average, and the final third to be the highest of the year.

2026 Disney World Free Dining Deal for Kids

FREE DINING FOR KIDS AT DISNEY WORLD IN 2026

Walt Disney World has released an unusual discount applicable to 2026 visits. In it, families reserving a Disney World hotel room and buying one of the Disney dining plans for adult guests can get the same dining plan for kids for free.

Disney defines kids as those aged 3 through 9, and adults as those 10 and older.

Unlike Disney’s usual “Free Dining” offers, you get to choose which of the two dining plans they wish. This provides flexibility, for example for folks aimed at both value resort and at character meals. (For more on the Disney dining plans see this.)

Moreover, Disney also says  that the 2026 Free Dining for kids plan can also be “combined with other select special offers.”

While the word “select” may be carrying a lot of burden there, speculation is that guests will be able to combine it with 2026 room rate deals. The kids Free Dining deal itself will save (depending on plan) ~$25 to $30 per night per kid. Room rate (or other “select”) deals can extend the savings even deeper.

For more on this deal, see this.

2025 Disney World Week Rankings

OVERVIEW: THE BEST TIMES IN 2025 TO VISIT WALT DISNEY WORLD

The rankings of times to visit Walt Disney World in 2025 that follow are designed for first time visitors who do not know whether or not they will return.

For visitors on a return trip or first timers who know they will return, less concerned about ride closures or the peak of the hurricane season, the later January, early February, and August and September weeks would be ranked much higher.

(Larger image.)

The rankings are in calendar order in the image above. In the discussion below, for each group, they are in rank order within that group. Near the end of the post I have an image of the full year in rank order.

These week rankings are based on my 2025 Disney World Crowd Calendar, on Disney World’s 2025 resort hotel price seasons, and on Disney World’s 2025 ticket price calendar.

Other factors are key as well–the holiday program, ride closure season and hurricane season in particular.

For more on how I build these rankings–although it’s old, it still is mostly I do it–see this. And for how prices work in the rankings, see the note at the very bottom of this page

RECOMMENDED 2025 WEEKS AT DISNEY WORLD, RANKED IN ORDER

The nine recommended weeks that follow are the best weeks to visit Walt Disney World in 2025 for first time visitors who may never return. They are lower crowd weeks that are not in the peak hurricane or ride closure seasons.

The top two weeks have the full Disney World holiday program, which is astonishingly good, and the third week has some of it.  The rest are largely in later spring and early November.

2025 WEEKS I’M LESS KEEN ON

Weeks 10-28 all have moderate crowd levels, with different prices and weather. I’ve divided them into two groups based on predicted crowds, and within the groups those with some or all of the holiday program come at the head of the list.

The first set of weeks I’m less keen on–10 through 20 in my rankings–all have “moderate-minus” crowd ratings, and avoid the peak hurricane and ride closure seasons.

With good plans, all of these are manageable by first time visitors who may never return.  The main problem is that this group includes so many summer dates. Those who can should avoid the heat and humidity of the summer at Disney World…

The next set of weeks I’m not so keen on is weeks 21-28. These also avoid the peak hurricane and ride closure seasons, but have somewhat higher forecast crowds than weeks 10-20, at moderate and moderate-plus levels.

I don’t recommend weeks 21-28 for first time visitors, but if you have to pick one, with good plans they are quite manageable. They are also fine for returning visitors.

In the next group, weeks 29-38 have one thing in common: while low or moderate crowd weeks, they all occur during the peak of the hurricane season. Hurricanes are rare and even more rarely affect a Disney World vacation, but for first-timers who may never return, why not just avoid the risk?

For returning visitors, though, the low-crowd, lower price weeks that can be found among this group–especially weeks 29-36–can be, with weather luck, wonderful times to visit.

2025 WEEKS TO AVOID AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

There’s two groups of weeks to avoid in 2025: high crowd weeks and weeks when some rides are often closed.

The first group, weeks ranked 39-46, should be avoided because of crowds that traditionally range from high to unbelievable.

This group includes many of the busy March and April spring break weeks, and the busiest holiday weeks—President’s Day week, Thanksgiving week, and the weeks around Christmas.

The next group includes the January and early February 2025 weeks when some rides are sometimes closed for repair or refurbishment—weeks 47-52.

Some of these weeks have among the lowest crowds and lowest prices of the year. However, this is the peak time for ride closures at Walt Disney World, especially the January weeks.

If this may be your only family visit, why go when you know likely a few of the best of Disney World will probably be closed?

2025 WEEKS AT DISNEY WORLD, RANKED IN ORDER

(Larger image.)

A NOTE ON 2025 PRICING

Traditionally, I have sorted among weeks with similar crowd predictions based first on the holiday program, and then on prices, most recently treating the average of resort prices equally with ticket prices.

This however does not work precisely given the wide variation between hotel prices in the three hotel price classes.  For example, if you sum these prices (for longer trips and a four person family),

  • At a value resort, across the year on average tickets cost 2/3 of the total, and lodging just 1/3
  • At a moderate resort, tickets and lodging each cost about half
  • At a deluxe resort, tickets cost about 1/3 the total, and lodging 2/3

So the price part of week rankings matches best the moderate resorts. Those staying in deluxes or values may want to look at the actual price rankings I give in the images for the various weeks by resort class.

Disney World Crowds in 2025

2025 CROWDS AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

The chart lower on the page shows my forecasts for 2025 crowds by week at Walt Disney World.

My Disney World crowd forecasts are based on a combination of historical patterns and the specific influence of school breaks. The varying year to year timing of school breaks particularly shapes crowding during the spring break season.

Ticket and even hotel prices also had some influence on my forecasts, but ticket prices are not the clear crowd forecast that some think they are.  Lower-priced days will be less crowded, but not all higher priced days are more crowded, as Disney prices tickets not only for quantitative demand but also for perceived value. For more on 2025 ticket prices at Disney World, see this.

As always, I forecast by Saturday arrival date, and the forecast includes the arrival Saturday through the second Sunday following–so 9 total days.

Heat Maps of 2025 Disney World Ticket Prices

COLOR-CODED HEAT MAP OF 2025 THEME PARK TICKET PRICES AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

I’ve color coded the start dates of the various base ticket lengths from four to ten theme park days in Disney World’s date-based ticket pricing system to indicate less and more expensive ticket dates in 2025, compared to prices in all of 2025. (The basics of how tickets work are at the link above; as is explained in more detail at that link, the lowest priced periods can save a family of four more than a thousand dollars in ticket prices compared to the highest priced periods.)

In what follows, compared to other dates for the same ticket length

  • The more and the darker the green, the better the price for the ticket that begins that day
  • The more and the darker the red, the worse.

Dates with a white background are everything else–you can think of them as “typical” for that ticket length.

Note the color boundaries.  Tickets listed cover anything from seven days including purchase (for four day tickets) to 14 days (for ten day tickets). So if you are using these colors as a proxy for a crowd calendar–which kinda works, though not exactly–when they change from green to red, focus on the shorter length tickets, especially the four day tickets at the left of each column.

I begin with an overview of the year so that you can see the flow of 2025 heat map Disney World ticket price colors in one spot, and then move to three month calendars.

 

The general pattern is the same as most years:

  • Lower prices, indicated by more green, in the typical semester–beginning months of January, early February, and especially later August and September. You’ll also find lighter-green stretches much (but not all) of May, June and July.
  • Higher prices/more red during the concentrated school break periods of spring break (early March through late April in 2025), Thanksgiving, and especially the Christmas/New Years holidays. Some tickets that include other typical popular student breaks (e.g. before and after Presidents Day, before Memorial Day, before the 4th of July, and during the fall break period in October centered on Columbus Day) also show red.

Let’s look in more detail at three month heat maps.

JANUARY THROUGH MARCH 2025 DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES

January ticket prices begin low, and are low or low-average the rest of the month into early February.

At the end of the first week of February, prices go up, and stay up until the weekend after Presidents Day. (Presidents Day is February 17 in 2025, prices are thus high through the 22nd.)

Prices in late February and early March are average to a little high, and start increasing near the end of the first week of March. Prices are high the rest of March and into April through the weekend after Easter.

APRIL THROUGH JUNE 2025 DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES

April prices begin and stay high until the weekend after Easter.  The very late Easter in 2025 is April 20, and ticket prices remain high until the weekend after–the weekend of April 26.

Ticket prices then shift to average/lowish until ticket dates begin including Memorial Day weekend. Shorter tickets see higher prices up until the 24th or so (Memorial Day itself is the 26th in 2025).

May prices then end low or low-average. June continues with low prices until around June 24, when prices increase and stay high through July 2 for longer ticket types, and for another week for shorter tickets.

JULY THROUGH SEPTEMBER 2025 DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES

July ticket prices begin high then shift to low or low average after the Fourth of July. Green then begins to increasingly dominate the heat map, with green in all of August and September, and the lowest ticket prices of the year in the second half of August and the first half of September.

OCTOBER THROUGH DECEMBER 2025 DISNEY WORLD TICKET PRICES

October begins with some hints of lower prices and green, but then red quickly takes over until near the end of the month. Average or low average prices return around October 24, continuing to around ticket start dates around November 3.

The rest of the year is a sea of red, with particularly high prices for tickets with use periods that include Thanksgiving week, and tickets whose start date is Saturday December 13 or later.

Note that my work is based on the rounded per-day prices Disney publishes. Prices shown are pre-tax.

You can find exact prices on Disney World’s ticket-buying pages.

2025 Disney World Resort Hotel Prices

2025 RESORT HOTEL PRICE SEASONS AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

The material below shows Walt Disney World resort hotel price seasons at different times of the year in 2025. (For 2026 Disney World hotel prices, see this.)

Resort prices can be almost twice as high during some periods as they are at others. The information on this page helps you identify lower and higher cost periods.

Disney has three price classes among its hotels: Value, Moderate, and Deluxe resorts. At all three classes, in 2025 the lowest prices go from early January into early February, and the highest prices are in the second half of December.  You can clearly see that in the chart, which shows average prices over the next seven days by arrival date from a sample of six Disney World resort hotels:

Another way to think about changes in pricing over the year is whether or not prices are below or above the year’s  average. The chart below takes three of the hotels from above (one from each price class) and also depicts their 2025 average price, as a dotted line.

As you can see on the chart, at all three price classes, 2025 Disney World resort hotel prices are largely at or below average from late April until early September, and mostly high-ish or above average from right before Presidents Day until the week after Easter, and then again from before Thanksgiving through the end of the year.

Beyond that things vary quite a bit by date and price class, especially in the summer and fall. All this is covered in detail later in this post, but to give you a quick way to assess, I’ve put together a Disney World resort hotel price heat map for 2025.

In the 2025 heat map, I’ve averaged “percent higher than the lowest of the year” across each of the resort classes. More red=higher prices, more green=lower prices. Yellow is in between.

Note, for example July in the heat map, which after the 4th shows light yellow in the values, green in the deluxes, and light green in the moderates. This difference is due to the differing effects of conventions on prices. All Disney hotels compete with the hundred thousand or so rooms elsewhere, and the deluxes in particular see their prices affected by convention business.  No sensible convention is in Florida from June through September, hence the lower prices in “deluxe”-type lodging across the market.  The values, in contrast, compete for family business year round, and the summer continues to be a convenient time for family vacations.

In the rest of the material below, I focus on the three price classes in turn. I compare 2025 hotel prices over the year for each hotel class to that class’s lowest price of 2025, its “value season” in parts of January and February.

Grouping of dates is based on “price seasons,” a grouping tool Disney World no longer makes public, but which can be identified analytically, and named (sorta) based on past practices. Disney charges based on the actual price of the actual nights, so if your visit straddles price seasons, you’ll pay the prices of each price season.

The charts average prices for each resort’s lowest-cost rooms over the next seven nights, by arrival date.  This eliminates what would be otherwise be incomprehensible bumpiness from Thursday/Sunday and/or Friday/Saturday upcharges. Within each price class, the charts show three different resorts. For exact prices by night by room type by date, see MouseSavers.com.

2025 DISNEY WORLD RESORT PRICE SEASONS: VALUE RESORTS

The Disney World value resorts see their lowest 2025 prices for arrival dates from early January through early February, with low-ish prices also mid-August through early September.

Additional below average prices in 2025 at the value resorts are from the end of March through early April, the end of April until just before Memorial Day, and mid-September until the Thursday a week before Thanksgiving.

The highest prices are for arrival dates in later February and most of March, the weeks before and after Easter, and early December through New Years.
