Discount Rooms Starting at $99 Per Night at Disney World in Summer 2025 for Disney+ Subs

Walt Disney World has released new Summer 2025 resort room-only discounts for Disney+ subscribers that offers rooms for as low as $99 per night. This post shares the details of these special offers, commentary about why there’s such a shortage of savings, plus sample pricing, analysis & other info.

This is one of many deals that Walt Disney World has released for 2025 vacations, with special offers for Annual Passholders, Floridians, and Disney Visa cardholders. For every other special offer that’s currently available, see All Current Walt Disney World Discounts for 2025. The current big discounts for this same time frame are Stay Longer & Save Up to 30% Off WDW Rooms and 2025 Free Dining at Walt Disney World.

This Disney+ subscriber room discount will almost certainly be better for most Walt Disney World guests than Free Dining. While the siren song of free food is certainly alluring, there’s no such thing as a free lunch–that special offer has some catches that might actually make this D+ discount paired with the 3-Park Magic Discount Walt Disney World Ticket and/or the 50% Off Kids Ticket Deal for Walt Disney World a better option!

On a different note, if you’re not a Disney+ subscriber, you still should check out this discounts. Unlike Annual Pass discounts, you don’t really need to “crunch the numbers” to determine if you would save more by one member of your party purchasing a Disney+ subscription if you don’t already have one. I can answer that for you right now: you almost certainly will.

The cost of Disney+ for two months is negligible, whereas this could save you several hundreds of dollars. In all likelihood, the additional savings will exceed the additional cost. That’s especially true given that the highlighted room deals we’re seeing here are more aggressive than AP rates for the same dates.

If you’re having an issue with your Disney+ account being recognized, try logging into Disneyplus.com first. You should be able to go into your Disney+ account and update the email address associated with that to match your My Disney Experience account. Should is the operative word, as this won’t always work. If it doesn’t, try calling Disney+ customer service at 888-905-7888. Do not call Walt Disney World, as it’s unlikely they’ll be able to help you out.

Another option is logging into Disneyworld.com with your Disney+ account login, booking a room under that, and worrying about account consolidation at a later date. (Trust me, you do not want multiple Disney accounts–it causes all sorts of unanticipated problems. I speak from experience, including today!)

If you just signed up for Disney+, try again approximately 60 minutes after you subscribed. If you’re still having issues, log out of everything, then log back into Disneyplus.com. After that, visit Disneyworld.com. It should work then. You might need to try private browsing, too. (That’s what I had to do to get this working.)

Here are the official details for the new discount:

Disney+ subscribers can enjoy summer savings with great rates on rooms at select Walt Disney World Resort Collection hotels, starting from $99 per night. This offer is valid on 2-night stays or longer, most nights from June 29 to July 31, 2025. The offer is limited to the following room types:

  • $99 Per Night for Standard Rooms at Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort
  • $169 Per Night for Woods View Rooms at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside
  • $229 Per Night for Cars Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
  • $249 Per Night for Deluxe Studios at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
  • $339 Per Night for Savanna View Rooms at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

Here’s a look at what we saw when searching for availability:

Note that Walt Disney World indicates that “other savings may be available,” which I assume means other room types at these same resorts. In none of my searches were other resorts shown, but other room types were.

I also couldn’t find a single set of dates that had every resort available with its deepest discount. So you might want to book ASAP if you’re trying to find the most in-demand options. (From my cursory searches, it looked like the Cars Family Suites had the least availability.)

In general, summer is one of the most consistent times to visit Walt Disney World, price-wise. With the exception of Independence Day, prices are more or less the same across the calendar in June and July 2025. Rates are generally higher, but with fewer spikes than other school breaks.

Friday and Saturday will be the most expensive days of the week, with Sunday through Thursday costing less. So if you’re looking to maximize savings, your best bet is to avoid the weekends. (Even so, the difference isn’t that pronounced–it’s not as bad as other times of the year.)

For more on timing your trip to coincide with the lowest prices, see When’s Cheapest to Visit Walt Disney World in 2025? That covers price increases and other variables that impact the cost of a vacation beyond just room rates.

Turning to analysis of this Disney+ subscriber discount, it is excellent when it comes to the highlighted resorts! In searching for availability with the 40% Annual Passholder rate, which is otherwise the best available discount, here are the cheapest rooms I found for the highlighted resorts:

  • $117 Per Night at Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort
  • $179 Per Night at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside
  • $404 Per Night for Cars Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
  • $287 Per Night at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
  • $393 Per Night for Savanna View Rooms at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

Again, here are the cheapest rates via the Disney+ subscriber discount:

  • $99 Per Night for Standard Rooms at Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort
  • $169 Per Night for Woods View Rooms at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside
  • $229 Per Night for Cars Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
  • $249 Per Night for Deluxe Studios at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
  • $339 Per Night for Savanna View Rooms at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

In every single case, the best rate via the Disney+ subscriber discount wins.

Just to reiterate, the AP discount that we’re using as a comparison is really good–so if you’re previously booked under the Stay Longer & Save More, FL resident deal, or anything else–you might want to rebook under this Disney+ subscriber special offer.

These are fantastic deals across the board, but I want to call your attention to are the Cars Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation, which has a rack rate of $579 per night; the Savanna View Rooms at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge with a rack rate of $658. That means either of these options are over 50% off for Disney+ subscribers. Those are HUGE discounts…subject to availability, of course!

Digging back through past discounts, this are better than anything we’ve seen since early 2021. During the post-reopening period, there were a few unique discounts (e.g. ‘Southerner Savings’ and PIN codes emailed to most past hotel guests) that were roughly on par with this. It’s not exactly an apples to apples comparison, though. Prior to that, the openings of Gran Destino Tower and Riviera Resort in 2019 generated exceptional deals in an attempt to fill those new resorts.

But during normal times? I cannot find anything this good for as long as we’ve been tracking Walt Disney World discounts. That suggests to me that these are not normal times…which is something we’ve been hinting at for a bit. (Forward guidance on Disney’s next earnings call should be, ahem, interesting!)

Some readers complained about the previous Disney+ deals at Walt Disney World, but we think that’s misguided. From our perspective, this is significant in it’s an affiliation offer with a very low barrier to entry. Subscribing to Disney+ is much cheaper than buying an Annual Pass or moving to Florida. As attractive as the latter option might sound to WDW diehards, it’s definitely not for everyone!

Despite that, many members of the general public simply won’t even consider doing that in order to qualify for these savings. That makes no economic sense–spending $10 to potentially save hundreds of dollars on a hotel is an absolute no-brainer decision–but it’s how deals like this always play out.

Any barrier to entry is too much for many people. That’s bad for those who don’t do their due diligence, but great for those who do–it means less competition. (This is the Walt Disney World vacation planning story, in a nutshell.)

As for why Walt Disney World is making it easier to qualify for an affiliation discount on rooms, the answer is simple: Disney+ is the company’s focus and fixation. There’s a misconception about Disney+ being incredibly profitable–although it’s getting better, it’s still barely breaking even. And despite domestic growth, it has still been losing international subscribers, which means its overall numbers appear to be shrinking.

While this deal appears to be a perk for Disney+ subscribers, it’s also another attempt to incentivize new subscriptions. (Every single streaming service is heavily subsidized right now–none are viable with their present business models, so enjoy this while it lasts!) Hence this Disney+ subscriber discount on Walt Disney World resorts.

It’s a way to juice Disney+ subscriber numbers, which will in turn help the company beat analyst expectations and impress Wall Street, which will in turn boost the company’s stock price. For better or worse, the company revolves around Disney+ right now. It is the big thing. That’s slowly changing, thankfully, but that’s primarily what this deal is about.

Primarily…but not exclusively. It’s also true that Walt Disney World is not required to offer massive savings to Disney+ subscribers that surpass even Annual Passholder rates. That’s a choice, and one presumably being made because summer occupancy is low. And that isn’t exactly shocking. In the real world, there’s a lot of economic uncertainty and travel trepediations as consumer confidence dips and fears of a recession rise. And that’s to say nothing of international travel, which has already plummeted from Canada and is likely to drop for other markets, as well.

Then there’s what’s happening in the theme parks universe. Speaking of, Epic Universe is opening down the street. While Walt Disney World’s public line has been that a “rising tide lifts all ships,” that’s only true if there’s the tide actually is rising. Everything we’ve heard suggests that Universal has likewise been struggling with summer bookings.

Then there are Walt Disney World’s own offerings, the only two of which with confirmed debut dates are stage shows at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The headliner, Disney Starlight Night Parade at Magic Kingdom, still lacks an opening date. So there isn’t a whole lot to draw guests to the parks in the next few months, beyond “Cool Kid Summer,” and details about that are still minimal.

Ultimately, if you’re Disney+ subscriber who is eager for a Summer 2025 vacation at Walt Disney World, these deals are as good as it’s going to get. With it being too late for renting DVC points (except for matching with a confirmed reservation), your only other alternative is checking out off-site or third party hotels, both of which do have better deals for holiday travel dates.

  1. They got us! We were (and still are) planning a January trip to do the parks (no interest in theme parks in the heat of July), but we were thinking of doing a split stay that trip to try a Savannah view room. Now we’ll stay at one hotel for that whole trip and do two nights at AKL this summer–more time to enjoy the resort/room and we’re going to do both water parks in one trip (something I’ve never done–only one at a time).

  2. The cynic in me thinks this move is Disney messing around with Comcast, coming at them with their elbows up: “Oh, you’ve got a nice new theme park there. Hope you’re prepared for a dog fight.”

    Disney is leveraging their profitable streaming service with 150 million subscribers to help fill a small number (in the grand scheme of things) of hotel rooms. Or are they using the hotels at their Florida resort to goose up subscriber numbers for that streaming service?

    It’s not like they are offering their most in-demand rooms here, either. Maybe the AoA family suites count, but they probably earmarked relatively few of them since they are already showing unavailable for some dates. The Savanna view rooms are the only real surprise to me, but this may be just so they can benefit from some goodwill in offering a few of these rooms at a discount.

    Peacock has less than 40 million subscribers and lost over $370 million last quarter, and these were an improvement from the previous quarter! They have much fewer rooms to use for discounts as well. Comcast simply can’t use other areas of the company to support each other the way Disney can, and I think this shows Disney’s willingness to use its vast holdings to support its position in the theme park market. The other discounts and the luggage pilot (and rumors of some sort of Magical Express returning) are another part of this. This too is why I’m actually optimistic that they will continue building their new projects even if the economy goes real sour, because they know they are way behind in new offerings and are betting Comcast won’t/can’t keep up later this decade (especially if Universal’s numbers are low this summer despite Epic Universe and Comcast brass starts to panic).

  3. Thanks ENTIRELY to your newsletter, I just booked a 9-night stay starting at Port Orleans Riverside (5th sleeper!) for $168 a night, Animal Kingdom Lodge (Savannah view!) for $328 a night, and finishing up at Art of Animation (Cars family suite!) for $228 a night. This is an average of $225 per night, staying in some really prized rooms.

  4. So I can book the hotel offer and kids ticket offer separately even using the same account to login and get both discounts?

  5. Wow! WDW room rates must be getting crushed by Universal Resorts this summer. Not gonna lie, this is the first time I canceled my WDW late summer stay and switched to Universal Resorts due to Epic Universe opening. Military Vets even get a $250 annual pass (with limitations) so I can check out the other parks on non-Epic days.
    I think the last WDW trip was enough, not enough new attractions to justify the resort/ticket prices. I think your comments on disenchanted Disney fans was dead on, as my family feels that way. Value is subjective, but Universal’s price seems better for a brand new park – not a new land, reskined attraction, or some lame food festival. I go to theme parks to go on rides, not eat (which Disney seems to be laser focused on), otherwise why am I paying for theme park tickets?

  6. We are from New Zealand and have booked a Disney hotel for late August 2025. If such discounts are available later are we able to cancel the existing reservation and book the cheaper one?

  7. If I already bought the 3 day, 3 park (no Magic Kingdom) special tickets but was planning to stay off site, can I now book one of these rooms? It says no combining offers, so I’m trying to figure out how that would work. Thanks!

    1. Good question! The no combining offers thing means you can’t stack this with another offer involving a room, such as Free Dining.

      Ticket deals and room-only discounts are mutually exclusive, so YES, you can do both!

    2. Not Tom – but yes. I have split room packages for my clients to get ticket and room deals. Glad you can get both discounts.

  8. Thank you for the tip, Tom! Booked All Star Sports several days ago with the AP discount but saw your post and immediately rebooked Saratoga Springs for a bit more ($249 per night vs original $145 at All Stars) but it’s a deluxe hotel with kitchenette! Win win.

  9. Does this work if you subscribe to a Disney Plus deal through Verizon, or must you subscribe directly with Disney Plus?

    1. There’s almost no way you would ever get a deluxe hotel for $99 a night in this day and financial climate.

  10. Thanks so much for posting this! I saw y’alls email update before Disney’s and was able to login and save $40/night on our summer trip.

  11. I had two nights booked at Music in a Family Suite and just changed it to the AOA Cars Suite for $150 less. I know the Music rooms are more recently renovated, but for less money AND being on the Skyliner, I couldn’t pass it up.

  12. Tom, thanks to your article I was alerted to this, and changed the Pop Century standard room portion of our split stay to Cars Suites for only $35 more a night!!!! Thanks for not just this, but all of the analysis and commentary you provide!

    1. You’re welcome, and thanks for contextualizing with the Pop Century comparison. Even with it just being the 3 of us, I would happily pay $35/night for that extra space!

  13. We have a planned trip mid to late August. Any thoughts on whether they will release another deal for that time period? We were able to book discounted room rates – but I’m always on the lookout for a better deal!

  14. These new discounts have me intrigued. Compared to post Covid I would almost call them aggressive. Pre Covid I was always able to book a trip with a decent discount and was very happy with the total cost. We always visit in Jan/Feb to help keep the cost a little lower. Our 1 post Covid trip left us with a meh! feeling. I am currently planning a early Feb 2026 trip for my family and 11 family members from CA. They are all DL passholders and this will be their fist DW trip. I was hesitant organizing this trip with my prior experience but thought seeing DW through the eyes of first timers may help me find the Disney magic again. We had pretty much come to terms with Disney being a once every 5-6 year trip instead of the yearly. These discounts have me very interested to see if they will continue into 2026. I have a feeling they will release the 2026 dates a little later than “normal” to see what they can generate with these new discount offers. Seeing these discounts plus the return of luggage service (pop is our go to resort) has me hopeful. I do not want to jinx it but if the DME would return that would be enough to win me back. I anxiously wake up every morning and first thing I do is grab my phone to see if/what new you have to inform us about. I appreciate all of your posts and most of the time your spot on insight. Fingers crossed this trend continues and I can book our group trip for a little less.

    1. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

      I’d say the big difference between pre- and post-COVID is that the rack rates have gone up since 2018. (Really the biggest jump for Pop Century came in 2019/2020 (before the closure), as a result of the Skyliner.)

      So these percentage savings still are far better than pre-COVID, it’s just the baselines are higher. Half-off $200 is still more than 35% off $150.

  15. I’m not a Disney+ subscriber, but I would love the check out the deal and see prices for specific dates. However, it seems you must already be subscribed just to browse. Bummer!

    1. For whatever it’s worth, the posted ‘starting prices’ are the actual rates every Sunday through Thursday, subject to availability.

      Rates are slightly higher on the weekend, but not significantly so. Again, subject to availability–and many dates are already gone.

  16. Literally contemplating a short trip in July just so my son can stay in a Cars Suite. We’re a family of 3, so I can never justify the cost (I’d rather stay Deluxe for the money), but at $229 a night, I might just need to do it!

    1. You might want to book now and think later (can always cancel!), as availability already appears limited for the Cars suites. Good luck!

  17. if I was going to go from the 27th of June to the 4th of July, can I do 2 days at the regular rate and then start the discounted rate on the 29th? It’s not letting me book without the discount before the 29th.

  18. we took advantage of the black friday deal for disney plus and hulu for $3.99 or some ridiculously low amount. 100% worth it, even with minimal ads.

  19. For us, flying down from Massachusetts, flights are more affordable in May/June where resort rate discounts aren’t as substantial, and when rates are better in summer, via this discount specifically, flights are up for us. I’ll have to do hard math to see which is the better deal all factors considered! Regardless, happy to see this offering! Keep the discounts coming!!
