Disney World's NEWEST Hotel Perk Just Got BETTER

Next year is shaping up to be a pretty big one at Disney World!

We’re expecting huge park expansion changes at Animal Kingdom over in DinoLand, U.S.A., and we may even see updates make their way to Magic Kingdom, too. Not to mention the FREE water park ticket deal for folks to stay at Disney World hotels in 2025! And, we just happened to figure out a major hack!

A while back, Disney World announced a brand new hotel perk for 2025 stays! Folks staying at Disney hotels in 2025 get FREE admission to one of the water parks, Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park or Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park, on their check-in day included in their stay.

This perk is available for those with check-in dates from January 1st to December 31st, 2025. The deal is also subject to availability and all visitors hoping to get into the water parks with complimentary admission have to be listed on the hotel reservation. It’s also available for Disney Vacation Club stays!

But — that’s not even the best part. Since many folks choose to do split stays at Disney World (meaning they split their time between two or more hotels), we were wondering if that meant you could technically get two free water park tickets — one for each check-in day at both hotels.

We decided we’d turn to the Main Mouse himself to find out for sure, so we asked a Cast Member! They confirmed that “With a split stay you will have that benefit for both of your check-in days with each reservation.” So, essentially, that’s two free water park tickets per person on your reservation when you book two separate Disney World hotels!

Lots of folks choose to do split stays for many reasons, including budget. Staying at a Deluxe Resort part of the time and a Moderate or Value Resort the rest of the time can ease the burden on your wallet and let you experience more of Disney World! Plus, with this deal you’ll get free water park tickets, so really — what are you waiting for?!
