This looks fantastic. If the food and service are good, $79 for afternoon tea is very reasonable, especially given the location.

I didn’t think I would like the gold near the top, but it feels much softer in @wdwmagic ‘s pics. Rather than the mustard color on some other blogs.

This was one of the biggest shocks/differences at Disneyland. Mary Poppins riding the carousel with kids, Woody wandering Frontierland, Maleficent playfully jeering guests, etc. This made the whole park feel so much more lively, welcoming, and authentically “Disney”. But guest behavior is also...

Fantastic performances. The CGI is… a choice.

That’s a really fun, clever logo! Graphic design has really elevated their game recently - with this, posters, Starlight, Villains! Great job!

Level99 in Natick has been chock full of kids having a blast both times that I’ve been. A dozen large tables are always reserved for kid birthday parties. And I’ve had multiple groups of kids and tweens excitedly lecture me (unsolicited) on the best way to solve a challenge. Disney charges $45...

If you’re going with the expectation of winning a prize, then yes, you’ll be disappointed. But this is really just a bonus that I think Level99 uses to get customers to come back. They don’t advertise prizes as a main feature. If you go to an arcade just to win tootsie rolls then yeah, you’re...

You never have to play with strangers. You scan your bands on computers outside each room and wait for the room to open, so you have complete control over who is in a room with you. Some of the challenges would be tough or impossible solo, however. Regarding age, I don’t think this would be fun...

Level99 just emailed an announcement.

Level99 is fantastic. The experience is top-notch and managed extremely well. It’s clean and well-maintained and the staff is friendly. Every time I go, I say “Disney could never do something like this so well.” I think it’s a hard concept to wrap your head around unless you’ve been. These...

I’m hoping they tune up the waterslide. My back still hurts 8 months later…

I believe they did offer significant discounts and vouchers at Caribbean Beach when that was under construction. But I may be misremembering? But I am not sure I will stay at Polynesian if it is under construction when we go. The primary reason I’m willing to pay Poly prices is the vibe. If...

I’m wondering the same thing. We booked for summer 2025. Rates seemed normal (not discounted). It would be extremely disappointing to stay at a construction wall mess while still paying full price at one of Disney’s most expensive hotels.

Our thermostat is on the opposite side of the room from the fan unfortunately :/ Thanks for the suggestion though! That’s a good idea!

Currently staying at beach club. The thermostat hack/override isn’t working and maintenance says they won’t override it anymore. They replaced the air filters and did some maintenance but it didn’t help. So the air shuts off at night and rooms get REALLY hot and humid. Is there a new hack that...
