00:00Hey everyone, Candace from Chic Busy Mom here,
00:02and I'm back at the most magical place on earth,
00:04Walt Disney World Resort.
00:06My first family vacation was so spectacular
00:08that now I want to share with other mommy bloggers
00:10and get their take on planning the perfect family vacation.
00:14I'm so thankful that Disney has invited me
00:16and my blogger friends, Natoya Green with Triplets and Tribeca,
00:20and Ronnie Tyler with Black and Married with Kids.
00:22They are here with their families exploring all that Disney World has to offer.
00:26But there's more to enjoy besides the theme parks.
00:29In fact, the magic begins when you choose where to stay.
00:46Welcome, ladies.
00:47Hey, Candace.
00:48Can you share with some of the moms out there who are planning a vacation
00:51what are the advantages of staying at a Walt Disney World Resort?
00:54Well, what I love is the convenience.
00:56You get off the plane, and there's the bus waiting for you at Disney's Magical Express.
01:00It's free.
01:01You don't have to worry about any additional cost and who can beat that.
01:04And then you get to your hotel, and then you have the option of having
01:07a Magic Your Away dining package.
01:09And it gives you access to over a hundred Disney restaurants,
01:13so it's a dining plan.
01:14For me, I'm a mom of triplets.
01:16Like, I need convenience all the time, so I love it.
01:19We live close to Florida, so we drive down.
01:22We're able to either take the option of driving to the theme parks,
01:25and parking is included, or we take the transportation from the resort.
01:30The Disney transportation honestly cannot be beat.
01:32Right.
01:33For going from park to park, or taking the monorail from resort to park,
01:37or even the ferry transportation, having all of that be complimentary
01:40is really quite an enhancement.
01:42Let's talk about Disney's Art of Animation Resort, where we're staying.
01:45What did you think about it?
01:46I thought Disney's Art of Animation was really fantastic for my kids.
01:50We had enough space, and it was perfect for us,
01:52because we were able to stay in a family suite.
01:54It was perfect for our budget.
01:56My husband and I have our space. The kids have their space.
01:58We're all spread out. We have separate bathrooms. I just love it.
02:02You still get to sort of live the experience of Disney.
02:06You still get to experience the characters. You still get to experience all the themes.
02:09And you can take pictures and just kind of live it even while you're at the resort.
02:14Whether you want to stay at a more high-end resort,
02:16or whether you want to be more budget conscious, there's something for everyone.
02:20Yes. Well, Disney has over 25 resorts, so definitely an option for everybody's budget.
02:30Staying at a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel offers more value and extra memories to make your vacation complete.
