Did you know that Walt Disney World offers over 25 resort hotels to choose from?
It's true...that is a large number to choose from but no matter which resort you choose, you have the added luxury of complimentary Magical Express transfers, Disney World transportation, Extra Magic hours and great amenities and services!
I will feature a different resort in my future blogs. Today's blog will feature Disney's newest resort:
Disney's Contemporary Bay Lake Tower Resort

This resort is connected to the original Contemporary Resort by a beautiful skywalk. The resort offers Studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom villas. The views offered are Bay Lake view or Magic Kingdom view.

When my family and I traveled to Walt Disney World this past July, we stayed here. We LOVED it! Staying at a monorail resort offers a lot of convenience, especially when you are traveling with young children. You have three resorts on the monorail to dine, shop and enjoy recreation at and the monorail is a short ride away to Magic Kingdom and Epcot. It was so much EASIER traveling on the monorail with a baby and stroller compared to using the Disney buses.
The Bay Lake Tower is also the closest resort to the Magic Kingdom entrance. A nice 5 minute stroll and you are at the front gate to enter!

We stayed in a two-bedroom/Magic Kindgom view Villa and it was perfect for our group. It was me, my husband, our 4 month old son, my parents and brother. We had 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen and laundry area.

With a large family, opting for a villa is a great choice because it allows everyone to have their own space and still be able to spend the vacation together. We usually stay in studios or standard resort rooms when we go with our individual families but when we have a larger group, we tend to opt for the larger villas.
