Why You'll Love Planet Hollywood at Disney Springs

Planet Hollywood is located in Disney Springs, and you can't miss it - it looks like an observatory with it's huge domed roof. If you're looking for a memorable and lively restaurant, check this place out! Movie lovers and TV show buffs will love seeing all the authentic Hollywood props. There are so many dining choices at Disney Springs, but if you have kids or teens, I suggest Planet Hollywood!
High School Musical Props - Go Wildcats!
Reasons why you will love dining here:

1. There wasn't a wait time. We were a few minutes early for our reservation, and they sat us right away. We were having a good time before we even got to the table. A Frozen song was blasting, the bass was pumping, and we got to browse some props from famous movies on our way up the stairs such as Dorothy's dress from The Wizard of Oz. 

2. The props, memorabilia, and artifacts from our favorite movies and shows were all around us, and our table had pieces from Pirates of the Caribbean inside it. We were seated next to Marvel's Jessica Jones' outfit and leather jacket. Not far away I could see Leonardo DiCaprio's costume from Titanic! There are over 500 items currently on display; but they’re changed out on a regular basis, so you may see something different every time you visit! My favorite one was the Chewbacca suit. So many cool photo-ops here!
3. The music - Warning: This is not a quiet and relaxing meal! There is a 3-story-tall, curved movie screen that plays movie soundtracks, and popular hits as music videos. We got to jam out to some songs from High School Musical, Avatar, The Lion King, Frozen, and Sweet Caroline (yes, everyone sang along!) among others. They have a state-of-the-art sound system too, so it's pretty loud, like a movie theater. A DJ is there at night to spin the Top 40 hits. 
I'll never let go, Jack.
4.  The great food! Chef Guy Fieri from the Food Network has the best burgers at sea, on Carnival Cruise Line, which my family loves! When they saw his food on the menu here, it was a deciding factor on booking the reservation. My husband got the Original Ringer Burger, with a crispy onion ring and super melty cheese.  I had the superb Morgan’s Veggie burger, both of which come with huge portions of his spicy fries. The kids loved their meals too! 

Their Menu has many other options too, like salads, sandwiches, pasta and amazing starters like Nachos Grande. They offer great entrees like Sirloin, BBQ Ribs, Slow Roasted Chicken Breast, and Sesame Ginger Salmon.

They have a decent wine and beer selection too.  You can sit outdoors on the covered terrace where you’ll enjoy views of Disney Springs. There’s even live music every night! 

Have a sweet tooth?? Try a classic milkshake, or the Brownie Sundae Martini! This is twelve freshly baked brownies layered with six scoops or vanilla and chocolate ice cream, topped with caramel and chocolate sauce, whipped cream and a cherry.

5. The atmosphere - Everyone was having a great time, it was like a big party! People were singing along to their favorite songs, cheering, walking around taking photos of the props, and the staff were so upbeat and fun! If it's your birthday they'll come sing and embarrass you, but you do get an awesome looking dessert out of it. 
As you exit, you'll go through a gift shop, so pick up a shirt, mug, or shot glass to remember the fun you had there! We will definitely be back, it's our new favorite Disney Springs restaurant!

Lunch: 11:30 AM - 3:55 PM
Dinner: 4:00 PM - 11:00 PM

Happy Stargazing!

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th

Universal's Volcano Bay Private Cabana Review

On a recent training in Universal Orlando Resort, agents Maci, Ashley, Aubrey and Yaritza and I rented a private cabana for the day at Universal's Volcano Bay. There are multiple locations around the park along with the option to have an upper or lower level, all of which reflect in various pricing. Agent Ashley received an email the day before informing her of where to check-in the next morning. While we were personally escorted to the cabana shortly after check in, the line at the check in location is the same as those getting towels, meaning it was not short. As expressed by an additional guest checking into a different cabana, we would have greatly appreciated a separate line, since this caused our group about a half hour wait. We're all adults and made great use of our time getting some fun pictures before the park was filled with guests, but this is important to be aware of if you are traveling with children.  We had an upper level Cabana which came with a splendid view!

Our Favorite Mocktails at Walt Disney World

Your resident foodie and vacation lush here to chime in on our favorite zero-proof drinks at the parks which I feel like Disney has done a much better job of recently.  Zero-proof alcohol is really having a moment so you can get a lot more mocktails that aren't just sugary sweet, and I am here for it!  Whether you are trying out "Dry January" for your visit, currently pregnant, underage, or just choose not to drink for whatever reason, I hope this list helps you find something to look forward to trying on your next trip! Let's start with a popular one from the last year, the EARidescent Sip-a-bration drink.  This delight can be found at most lounges throughout the 50th celebration at Walt Disney World. It features Minute Maid® Premium Lemonade and Fruity Strawberry Punch, and is served in a souvenir 50th Celebration Cup with a surprise character. This is definitely a kid-friendly drink but it is so fun to drop in the character and watch the drink change color and sta
