Right here’s what we discovered for greatest accessible charges for this 2025 low cost:
This search is for the primary week of September 2025, which is a part of the Worth fee season at Walt Disney World. On the rack fee chart spectrum, this is without doubt one of the least costly occasions to go to Walt Disney World in 2025. So far as this promo goes, you’re not going to search out any dates which might be higher than late August via mid-September.
Friday via Sunday nights are all going to be costlier, and fewer constant. Typically, Friday and Saturday would be the most costly days of the week, with Sunday via Thursday costing much less–however nonetheless greater than Monday via Wednesday nights. Vacation weeks are additionally costlier. Mainly, room charges are increased any time when youngsters are out of college.
To maximise financial savings, you’ll have to e book 5-nights, which means that it’ll essentially embody not less than a pair nights that aren’t absolutely the least expensive. Nonetheless, as famous above, you aren’t required to remain 5 nights. If you happen to e book 1-4 nights, you’ll merely save 5% much less at most resorts and for many dates. It’s 5 nights or longer that “unlocks” the additional 5% off, so to talk.
For extra on timing your journey to coincide with the bottom costs, see When’s Least expensive to Go to Walt Disney World in 2025? That covers value will increase and different variables that influence the price of a trip past simply room charges.
We’ve mentioned this earlier than in Is Walt Disney World’s Free Eating Deal Truly Price It?, however a room-only low cost goes to supply superior financial savings for lots of events. That’s particularly the case with this one for events staying 5 nights or longer.
All we will supply is sweeping generalizations–you’ll completely need to do the mathematics on your personal distinctive circumstances–however as a basic matter, room-only reductions are higher for smaller events staying at higher-tier resorts. When evaluating these two reductions, you need to have a look at occasion dimension, visitor ages, and room price.
Free Eating is greatest for individuals who can maximize the variety of friends staying in a single room and reduce their rack fee resort price. Conversely, a room-only low cost tends to be higher for solo vacationers and {couples} at increased priced accommodations–in addition to events with lighter eaters (keep in mind, the Disney Eating Plan is simply price as a lot as you’ll use it, which isn’t essentially its full face worth).
These are generalizations and never laborious and quick guidelines. We simply need to reiterate this as a result of there’s a number of attract in Free Eating. In any case, who doesn’t love one thing that’s FREE?! However in actuality, there’s no such factor as a free lunch–you’re giving up a room-only low cost to get that ‘free’ Disney Eating Plan. Regardless that it’s the extra boring low cost, a number of occasions, the room-only deal is the higher particular supply.
The opposite large cause this deal would possibly come out forward is the aforementioned ticket reductions. With Free Eating, you’re required to buy a (full priced) Park Hopper ticket. With this room-only low cost, you should buy that discounted ticket–or any ticket deal (see our Information to Saving Cash on Park Tickets at Walt Disney World).
We’re not going to belabor this level once more, as a result of we already did that with the Free Eating evaluation, however you’ve gotta do the mathematics not simply on room-only reductions vs. Free Eating, however room-only reductions plus ticket reductions vs. Free Eating. You’ll be able to doubtlessly save $150+ per grownup ticket (not an apples to apples comparability) and not less than $275 per youngster ticket (apples to apples comparability) with these ticket offers versus Free Eating.
That’s a giant factor that journeys lots of people up with Free Eating–once more, it’s not really free meals with no strings connected. C’mon, that is Disney–do you actually suppose something that good is really free?!
My evaluation of this low cost is generally constructive, however not fairly pretty much as good as the primary wave of final yr’s comparable low cost (so we’re speaking in regards to the particular supply launched in early January 2024).
Simply as is going on this yr, this deal was launched twice final yr (or slightly, re-released). As soon as on January 3 for journey dates from March 25 to July 7 and July 8 to October 3. That was a twice-tiered deal, with increased financial savings for longer stays in the course of the second set of dates. Which means you may save as much as 35% off for 5-night or longer stays from July 8 to October 3. (As much as 30% for the primary set of dates.)
That deal was extremely common. A lot so, in reality, that Walt Disney World “ran out” of room stock pretty rapidly, and pulled the deal from the web site. The DTB Archive exhibits reader complaints about availability nearly instantly after which notes that offers had been eliminated early from DisneyWorld.com, however not when that occurred. The deal was then re-released for that second set of dates, however maxing out at 30% off.
The opposite large change with this re-release is that August 12 to August 23, 2025 and September 15 to September 27, 2025 now supply lesser financial savings. That’s unlucky, as these are amongst our favourite occasions to go to for the beginning of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Celebration and a number of other of the lowest-crowd weeks of the complete yr at Walt Disney World.
Other than these couple of date ranges, this 2025 model of the deal is considerably just like final spring’s particular supply, proper right down to the re-release (only a couple weeks earlier). To be clear, that’s not dangerous! If this similar deal had been launched in March/April 2021/2022/2023, we’d’ve been rejoicing! However the circumstances are markedly completely different now than they had been in the course of the top of pent-up demand.
The 2025 Keep Longer & Save Extra particular supply continues to be a great basic public deal by long-term historic requirements–simply not on par with its counterpart launched on January 3 of final yr. That one was superb, and pretty unprecedented.
Which might be why it bought so properly and was pulled! It’s additionally honest to level out that deal was higher on paper, however not all the time in observe. Availability was very restricted, and we’re really seeing higher (sensible) financial savings at a number of resorts with the 2025 incarnation of the deal!
Not that any of this issues because you don’t have a time machine, however I however discover it fascinating how offers stack as much as each other from a historic perspective.
It’s additionally fascinating that, on the similar time Walt Disney World affords a higher deal to Florida residents and Annual Passholders (as in comparison with final yr) throughout a few of these similar dates, they’re providing a lesser low cost to most of the people. You’d suppose they’d’ve not less than matched the primary Keep Longer & Save deal from January 3 of final yr, particularly with Epic Universe opening this summer time!
This means a number of issues to me. The primary is that Disney received too aggressive with this deal final January, providing extra of a reduction than was “needed” to hit occupancy targets. I feel this a lot was evident final yr when the particular supply was pulled early and changed with the identical deal however not pretty much as good a few months later, however this additional reinforces that notion.
Second, that Disney CFO Hugh Johnston was not mendacity when he mentioned early bookings are barely stronger for Summer season 2025 than final yr. Maybe Walt Disney World actually is right with its “rising tides lifts all ships” thesis. Or perhaps there’s already a ton of enthusiasm for Disney Starlight Evening Parade. Perhaps each. (Is appears notable that Disney is doing superior ticket offers for youths and making an attempt to exclude Magic Kingdom from the extra adult-centric supply.)
Lastly, that Walt Disney World goes to embrace value discrimination methods in its method to coping with Epic Universe. It’s most likely no coincidence that Annual Passholders–a gaggle of not simply Disney followers, however theme park followers as a complete–are getting a deal that’s higher than final yr, whereas common vacationers have a barely worse supply. Maybe that is Walt Disney World recognizing it’s going to want to do extra to attraction to extra passionate followers, lots of whom aren’t simply enthusiastic about Disney, however theme parks, usually.
It’s additionally doable that that is all over-analysis and Walt Disney World is mixing up approaches to see what works greatest. Nonetheless, this basic public supply for 2025 not being higher than final yr’s preliminary launch says one thing.
However, there are some superb offers available. All Stars for $107, Pop Century for $154, Coronado Springs for $211, Caribbean Seaside for $262, and a number of other Deluxe Resorts for below $400 per night time, that are comparatively cheap charges. These are about as little as you’re going to search out for basic public reductions, with the doable exception of January and February 2026 (so subsequent yr) when rack charges will likely be decrease.
Particularly, each Wilderness Lodge and Animal Kingdom Lodge for round $320 per night time; Up to date for $398 per night time; and the Crescent Lake Resorts for round $400 per night time. Even Grand Floridian for $516 is low, relative to its rack charges. The lodges are all the time private favorites, and the lately redone rooms there are robust to beat. Ditto the Backyard Wing on the Up to date, which has change into our go-to when touring as a household for the situation inside strolling distance to Magic Kingdom. Not having to switch from a stroller when Child Bricker is asleep on the finish of the night time is a large win.
On the decrease finish of the spectrum, these financial savings make the Worth and Reasonable Resorts robust to beat. You’re going to be hard-pressed to search out something off-site that may beat the charges Walt Disney World is providing. For me, the All Stars at something below $140 is nice–new rooms, Early Entry, transportation, and free parking actually sweeten the deal to the purpose that your ‘all-in’ price off-site will probably be increased. (If you’ll find it, Pop Century is a superb choose at ~$160 per night time.)
And for reference, the searches I did to spotcheck costs for this re-release of ‘keep longer & save extra’ encompassed an identical dates to the preliminary launch in June. Normally, the costs are precisely the identical or barely cheaper. The Worth Resorts, specifically, all decreased. Caribbean Seaside and Up to date each elevated barely.
Clearly anecdotal based mostly on my parameters, however this deal appears considerably the identical as the primary spherical from what I’m seeing. (My earlier searches weren’t for the weeks with the decrease financial savings, so neither are my new ones–in the event that they had been, the financial savings would nearly definitely lower.)
Finally, that is one other low cost that’s fairly good by historic requirements and definitely higher what we had been seeing in 2021-2023 (just about nothing!), however nonetheless manages to fall barely in need of expectations. Maybe that’s a “me drawback” as that is on par with what was launched on the similar final yr, however not so good as the January particular supply encompassing a considerably comparable date vary. I had hoped we’d see one thing equal to that first launch for late summer time and early fall 2025 given the identical timeframe is the opening season of Epic Universe.
This needs to be an fascinating saga to observe, and it’s nearly sure that we haven’t seen the tip of Walt Disney World’s efforts to woo again former followers, compete with Common Orlando, and pull “levers” to incentivize extra demand and visitor spending. If bookings find yourself being softer than anticipated–due not simply to Epic Universe, but in addition the economic system, client confidence, worldwide journey slowdown, and so on–it’ll be fascinating to see what sort of extra distinctive promotions (past room reductions) are launched for the second half of 2025. We will likely be intently monitoring what’s launched and will notify subscribers of our free e mail publication when any Walt Disney World reductions are launched or rumored!
