Winter Getaways with Disney

Even though this winter has been relatively mild here in the metro DC area – every year Punxsutawney Phil prognosticates on the next six weeks and I yearn for a getaway. I want to head somewhere warm and sunny. This is the time of year my thoughts always return to central Florida and I start daydreaming about my next trip to Disney! Are you suffering from the winter blahs? A desire to see someplace warm and green?

Give everyone a break and head down to Florida for a long weekend. Walt Disney World is great this time of year. The temperatures are comfortable and the crowds are smaller. It is a perfect time of year to go wander around the parks, take in a few of your favorite attractions and then explore some new shows and attractions. A quick getaway could be just what you need to renew your energy and spirit as we settle in for the second half of the winter season; a small reminder of the warmth and sunshine that will soon be back.

If the parks aren’t what you are looking for, how about a couple of days at Disney’s Vero Beach? Vero Beach is a quiet and relaxed beachfront resort in Florida. Spend a couple of days here listening to the sound of the waves or being pampered in the spa and enjoy some time away from the hustle and bustle of home.

Did you know that you Disney offers 3 night cruises? The perfect long weekend getaway. Set sail on a Disney cruise ship and enjoy Disney service and entertainment at sea while sailing to the warmth of the Bahamas. You can even spend a day exploring Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. 

Looking for something more? Consider Aulani, Disney’s newest vacation destination. Submerse yourself in the warmth and friendliness of Hawaii combined with legendary Disney service.
