Splash Into Summer with More Benefits at Disneyland Resort Hotels

It’s time for summer vacay, and the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort have lots of fun for every member of the family! While nighttime spectaculars are lighting up this summer with excitement in Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, Guests can stay and play a little longer with even more magic and more benefits at our three on-property hotels including summer pool parties and Early Entry into the parks, coming soon!

Overnight Guests can immerse themselves in Disney day and night, just steps from the parks and the Downtown Disney District, enjoying special amenities, activities, offers and unrivaled convenience! Vacation in the grandeur of Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, relish in the nostalgia and mid-century modern design of the Disneyland Hotel, or enjoy the beachy boardwalk theme of Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel. All distinctly Disney!

Make a Splash!

Soak up some relaxation – and some thrills – by splashing down the waterslides! Or, simply go for a refreshing dip in the hotel pools before or after a day in the parks.* Guests can even lounge the day away by renting a cabana to enjoy a spacious, shady poolside oasis with well-appointed amenities.

New Summer Pool Parties!

Have a blast at the new summer pool parties, taking place for a half-hour daily at all three Disneyland Resort Hotels, July 1 – Aug. 31, 2022. Our Disney poolside squad will be on deck to lead games like the water sponge relay and a fun floaty toss, and play high-energy music for dancing the Pluto doggie paddle! Disney pals will stop by the pool to join in the fun!

More Hotel Benefits for You!
