Review of MagicBand

Convenient for any guest if you are planning on parkhopping, using FastPasses, using PhotoPass. Even more convenient for guests staying on property, as you can use it as a room key and also link your credit card to it. I loved not having to take anything except my MagicBand when I went to the resort pool. We were able to buy drinks and even rent bikes for the ride between Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter, all at the flick of my wrist! But beware if you have poor impulse control like I do...it's easy to rack up a huge bill when you're not pulling out cash or a credit card.
Pros:
convenient, easy to use, waterproofCons:

Love the transportation most of the time
Pros:
Usually reasonable wait time. If going to Disney Springs, the bus with it's own lanes is a must because of all the congestion and parking problems related to Disney Springs.Cons:
Even with the monitors, had 2 really long waits.Review of Walt Disney World's Magical Express

great benefit of staying onsite if you are flying to Orlando
Pros:
very easy to useCons:
pick up time to return to the airport makes you loose park time; would love to see option where you could check your luggage in the morning before going to the theme park and have the bus to the airport pick you up at the theme parksReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/26/2018

We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa here for the first time this past August and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by friendly, eager to please cast members. The rooms were spacious and clean. I had some concerns about the bus system, but it was \"spot-on\", especially the internal bus. We will definitely stay here again>
Pros:
Courteous and friendly CM, size of rooms, locationCons:
For us, there were no consReviewed by Karen Schlaker Review Date: 09/26/2018

This is my kids favorite non-character dining at Disney. They entertain you as you eat family style and there are so many fun things you can have the kids do such as ask for ketchup, say your straw is not long enough, wear a shirt from a place outside Disney. The kids stay entertained (and the adults). The food is good and they also accommodated my kids allergies, even though it was family style.
Pros:
Entertaining Fun for kids Different then other dining options at Disney, they are loud, have kids get up and dance, etc.Cons:
We waited awhile even though we had reservationsReview of Be Our Guest -Counter Service Lunch

We have been to Disney three times now with our three young kids and this is by far their favorite Disney restaurant of them all. Not only do you get to see all the big Disney characters without waiting in a line at the park (saving time!) but they have good food for adults with lots of kids favorites to keep everyone happy. We also have two kids with food allergies and the chef came right out to the table and provided each of them a meal they loved and made them feel special!
