By Frances Kelly


The Disney World complex in Bay Lake and Buena Vista, Florida is located near Orlando. While there are several hotels in these areas, not all are disney world hotels, though some do offer the same benefits. While the area surrounding Disney World originally had a different owner, the area is now owned and operated by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, a subsidiary of the original owner.

Currently, the resort plays home to an outdoor shopping complex, a number of entertainment venues, a camping resort, several golf courses and nine hotels which are not owned by the company. While this is the case, there are 27 themed resort hotels, 2 water parks and 4 theme parks, all of which are owned by the resort.

The original plan for the resort was to supplement the California Disney park in Anaheim, California. In the case of California, the park opened in the mid-1950s, after which Walt began work on the design for the resort in Florida in the 1960s. During this time, the planning phase was known as the Florida Project. For, the intention was to build a separate and diverse identity rather than mimic the park in California.

One of the biggest highlights is the EPCOT attraction. For, individuals can travel around the world, step into the future and taste foods from around the world. While Disney had an idea for EPCOT, the Experimental Prototype of Tomorrow, the attraction now serves millions of visitors each year. While an early development, EPCOT now shares the limelight with three other theme parks on the resort.

While this is the case, it took extensive lobbying to the Government of Florida before the Reedy Creek Improvement district was constructed and developed. As part of the agreement, Disney gained the rights to be an autonomous incorporated city. While this was the case, Walt passed away before work began on the construction of the city. After which, the company began creating a resort similar to that of the park in California.

The company abandoned the early concepts which Walt brought to the table. After with construction began on Magic Kingdom which later opened in 19721. EPCOT was completed in 1982, Animal Kingdom in 1998 and Hollywood Studios in 1989. Animal Kingdom is the newest park in the complex. Whereas, the new Star Wars Experience is on track to be the most visited attraction in the park.

Walt Disney World is often considered one of the most visited attractions in America. For, with attendance often in the millions on an annual basis, the destination serves several corporations schools and families throughout the year. As such, the resort has become a staple for businesses, schools and vacationers.

A number of long distance travelers prefer to stay at the on-site hotels. For, most offer free transportation between hotel and airport and park entrances. In addition, there are all-inclusive packages which also include park admission and other benefits such as dining passes and all you can drink glasses.

While a number of people prefer to stay on-site, there are a number of lodging options in the area.

Most often, the higher the rate, the more benefits with regards to shuttles and park packages an hotel has to offer.
