There are a lot of essentials to pack for Disney World.

Some of these items are just personal preferences, while others are necessities you’ll definitely be missing if you forget. Not to mention that Disney is changing nearly constantly. We’re here to help recommend the best essentials to keep you prepared!
Ponchos
Y’all, summer in Disney World isn’t only hot, it’s also WET. Summer weather in Disney World means almost daily afternoon showers. So ponchos are 100% a necessity.

Yes, you can buy ponchos in Disney World, but they’re MUCH more expensive, so we strongly suggest buying them ahead of time.

Mini Fan
Did we mention Disney is HOT? Yeah, you’ll bake in the heat, so having a Handheld Mini Fan can be a lifesaver.

We especially love this fan because it’s rechargeable and doesn’t run on batteries, and it closes up super small.

Portable Chargers
Portable Chargers are essential in Disney World for many reasons, and we love these Small Portable Chargers!

If you’re using Genie+, you’ll be using your phone a lot, but even if you’re not, your battery may quickly run out if you’re taking lots of photos, playing games in lines to pass the time, etc. So having some small, yet powerful, chargers is definitely necessary.

Cooling Towels
Have we mentioned that Disney World is hot? Having a handheld fan is great, but if you need something a little stronger, we suggest getting a pack of Cooling Towels.

We love these on Amazon specifically because it’s a four pack, and they really do stay cool all day. These are one of those things that you don’t realize how much you needed in your life until you have it, and then you never go back.

Power Strips
What about your hotel room? If you’re like us and you’ve got 1,000 items to charge every night, grab a Flat Plug Power Strip.

This one is especially a favorite of ours, because it has four plugs, as well as three USB ports!

The Perfect Bag
Some of these essentials you need to have WITH you in the parks, which also means you need somewhere to hold it all. One of the bags we recommend is the ODODOS Unisex Mini Belt Bag.

We love this bag because you can wear it many different ways, and it’s a great size.
