Welcome to the Sunshine State! If you’re planning your magical adventure to Walt Disney World in Florida, there’s more to a successful trip than just buying tickets and packing Mickey ears. At Recio Hospitality Group, we specialize in helping guests have stress-free, comfortable, and fun-filled stays — so we’re here to share our insider travel tips for making the most out of your Disney vacation!
🌟 1. Plan Early and Reserve Ahead
Disney vacations are magical — but they’re also in high demand! Top planning tips:
Book your Disney Park Passes as early as possible (yes, even with tickets!).
Reserve your vacation home near Disney well in advance (check out our listings just minutes away from the parks!).
Manage your itinerary, dining, and Genie+ reservations.
Pro Tip: Many of our guests book their homes 6–12 months ahead to secure the best locations!
🕒 2. Arrive Early, Leave Late
The magic starts early — and the crowds do too.
Get to the parks 30-60 minutes before opening to beat lines.
Consider staying for Evening Extra Hours for evening events.
Afternoon? That’s the perfect time for a nap or pool break at your vacation home to recharge.
🧳 3. Pack Smart – But Light
Florida weather can be unpredictable. Here’s what you shouldn’t forget:
Ponchos or rain jackets (it rains, but then it clears fast!)
Sunscreen & sunglasses
Comfortable walking shoes (you’ll walk a lot)
Portable phone charger for all those magical selfies 📸
Refillable water bottle — save $$ and stay hydrated!
💡 4. Use Genie+ Wisely
Skip long lines with Genie+ — but use it strategically:
Book your first Genie+ ride as soon as the day starts (7am).
Prioritize high-demand rides: Rise of the Resistance, Space Mountain, Slinky Dog Dash, etc.
Stack reservations in the afternoon to avoid peak heat.
🍽️ 5. Dining Hacks You’ll Thank Us For
Disney food is an experience! Here's how to eat well without the stress:
Make reservations early (up to 60 days in advance).
Mobile order through the app to skip long food lines.
Bring snacks for picky eaters and those “just in case” hangry moments.
Try at least one character meal — it’s a memory maker!
🏡 6. Stay Outside the Parks and Save Big
While Disney resorts are lovely, vacation homes like ours offer:
More space & privacy for families or groups
Full kitchens to save on meals
Private pools, game rooms, and driveway parking
Budget-friendly options without sacrificing comfort

🚗 7. Transportation Tips
Driving in? Parking is available at all Disney parks ($25/day standard, but free at some vacation homes!).
Flying in? Consider renting a car for flexibility or using ride-share apps.
Many Recio Hospitality homes are within 15 minutes of Disney, saving you both commute time and Uber fees.
👨👩👧👦 8. Traveling with Kids? Here's What You Need
Use Rider Switch so adults can still enjoy thrill rides.
Take mid-day breaks to avoid meltdowns.
Bring a stroller (or rent one) — even big kids get tired at Disney!
Label everything (water bottles, backpacks, etc.)
📸 9. Capture the Magic (and Back It Up!)
Use PhotoPass photographers for perfect group photos.
Take candid moments too — those are often the best!
Backup your photos to cloud storage each night.
