Question:

What are my options for accommodations for 15 people? Are connecting rooms available?

Answer:

The Walt Disney World® Resort is a great place for groups to vacation! Your accommodation options are going to depend not necessarily on the number of guests, but the ages and sleeping arrangements needed – i.e. number of beds, etc.

Disney has standard occupancy limits in their rooms based off of fire codes. Here is a sampling of those limits:

Up to 9 guests – TreeHouse Villas at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
Up to 8 guests – Disney Deluxe Villas at various resorts
Up to 6 guests – Cabin at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort or Family Suite at Disney’s All-Star Music Resort

Connecting rooms are available at most of Walt Disney World® Resort hotels based on availability.

With a little more information about your party, your Magic Maker® will be able to select the best resort for your group and find an available promotion that will save you the most money.

Coming later this May!  A new game with new faces is being added to Toy Story Mania! at Disney’s California Adventure and Disney’s Hollywood Studios™ as part of the celebration of the soon-to-be-released Disney*Pixar film, “Toy Story 3.”  A new character from the new movie will be coming soon with a chance to see and greet at both locations.

The new Toy Story Mania! game, called “Rex and Trixie’s Dino Darts,” will involve shooting virtual darts at all new balloon targets in a primeval world filled with volcanoes and lava balloons. You’ll be cheered on by Rex and his new friend Trixie beginning in late May. The game will be replacing “Bo Peep’s Baaa-loon Pop” and has a few hidden surprises of its own.

Starting May 9, you’ll also get a chance to see “Lotso” (short for Lots-O’-Huggin Bear) at both parks. He’ll be greeting Guests in the meet-and-greet area inside The Magic of Disney Animation and be part of the “Block Party Bash” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios™. The new character will also join “Disney’s Pixar Play Parade” at Disney’s California Adventure and guests will be able to pose alongside the “Toy Story” gang inside a life-sized “blister pack” as if they themselves are toys.
