Hello Rob! I just recently started watching your videos since I'm going to WDW next week and I'm now obsessed 🫶🏻 your videos are absolutely wholesome and I wanted to thank you for that 🫡💕
Thanks Rob! I never knew what Disney’s Vero Beach Resort was all about…and now I do. I have to say that I love your vlogs. I think you explain everything the best…not that others are bad, but your just seem to be a little more informative. I just adore you!
My name is Craig Dennis i watch your new videos all the the time i in joy all of your videos all the time you have a nice safe day today you take care today👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video Rob. I became a DVC member in ‘96. We spend a week every year at Vero. We love that it’s Disney with great Disney service without the crowds and stress of a WDW vacation. Interestingly enough, our kids and now grandchildren prefer going to Vero over the parks.
I enjoyed this resort ❤ I do agree food is limited but the grill was ok, the market was reasonable and good. My favorite time was enjoying the beach and pool. This resort is good for a relaxing short stay. Thanks for sharing 🤗 Have a Magical Day
Hi Pamela! We completely agree. We just went for one night and had a great time. I’d say two nights would have been perfect, but we couldn’t fit it into our schedule. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience! 😃
Thanks so much for this video! I’ve been thinking about staying a couple of nights here, either before or after a cruise, but haven’t seen much about it. Super informative and enjoyable as always!
I really so enjoy your videos...I know I've said it before but I'll say it again...thank you for your videos! they are always so helpful! I've always wondered about Vero Beach. I hope you had a nice stay.
I have stayed there & there is absolutely nothing to do there. This is a rich man’s retirement town. There is 1 seafood restaurant that cost $200 a dinner & $20 coke. My husband & I got up with our 3 kids after spending a full week at a deluxe 5 star Contemporary Resort in Magic Kingdom vacation that cost $8000.00 at that time. Which we did every Christmas. Then onto Veros home away from home & we ventured outside to said restaurant tried paying for our drinks while the waitress would not except because even she understood & we left. We went back over to the mainland & found Lobster Shanty on the water & it was fabulous. Other than that nothing for kids which I understand but even for my husband (triple war vet 2003-2009) & I there were no reason what so ever to make that place home away from home again! This resort must have been put there for specific older demographic that may or may not be in that area but definitely retired people. We owned a suite for 5 & we bought it free & clear & decided to sell it & we didn’t even want to pass it down to our children.
Thank you so much for the great review! I’m thinking this could be a nice way to relax after a few days in the parks - a vacation off-ramp if you will. 😊 Something I’d never considered before so I really appreciate your perspective!
Hi Sherry! We really enjoyed it and both kept commenting on how relaxed everything was. It’s a great change of pace from the parks. Thanks for watching! 😃
Aww. You missed the towel hidden Mickey in the bathroom and Tick Tok croc outside. We own DVC at Vero. It is in my top 3 Disney Resorts along with AKL and Aulani.
Love this. I didn’t even know this place existed. You should review all Disney resorts! Especially the one in Hawaii! I’m super curious about that one!
I really wish I could go out all the time and travel to everywhere I want to go. It would mean the world to me to go out as much as I want and go out to new places everyday. Please send me all your hopes and wishes that I do..
Hey Rob, how would I get a shuttle from the disney resort to the Car Care? does it have to be online or do I have to set it up at the front desk? Thanks!
What are the rates do you know? Couldn’t find anything online. I’m glad Disney upheld their part to community about being low key. So many developers don’t. And great tip about the car rental next to the Car Care Center. Thanks again for this video!
I’m not sure what the rack rate is, but we rented DVC points. You can check David’s Vacation Club Rentals and DVC Rental Store. Always look at their listings for reservations that are already booked for the best deals (that’s what we did), but you have to be more flexible with your dates. Thanks for watching! 😃
Hi Rob! What would you say is your favorite Disney resort/hotel? I’ll be staying at a deluxe resort for the first time (AKL) and I’m wondering if you have any tips/recommendations while I’m there. BTW Love your videos
This was so informative - thanks for posting! I knew nothing about Vero Beach Resort and had wondered how it fit into world of Disney… sounds like it’s really it’s own thing. Do you think it would be better (and cheaper) to stay at a non Disney beach resort since there isn’t much Disney there? Thanks again!
Those are the 50th Anniversary Tiki Room ears from the Mickey: the Main Attraction series. You might still be able to find them on eBay or sites like that. Thanks for watching! 😃
Hi Rob! I wanted to ask for some advice. My dad and I are going to Disney World July 27th to celebrate both our birthdays! We have one day park hopper passes and plan to go Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Magic Kingdom (sorry Animal Kingdom! 😅) We plan to end our night at Magic Kingdom but I can't decide if we should go to Epcot or Hollywood Studios first! We want to ride as many rides as possible and we will be using Genie+. Don't plan on meeting characters or going to shows, nor staying at a Disney Resort so no early access but we will try to get there at rope drop. Thanks so much and LOVE your videos! ❤ You really helped me understand Genie+ as it has been several years since we've gone so it will be our first time using it!
Hello! That sounds like an EPIC Disney day. 😅 If you are okay with getting an Individual Attraction Lightning Lane for Guardians at Epcot, I would start with Hollywood Studios. When you don’t start in Epcot, you can’t try for the Virtual Queue until 2pm and at that point, they’re pretty much always gone. Same goes for TRON at MK. Also note that you are limited to 2 Individual Attraction Lightning Lanes per person per day, so you wouldn’t be able to purchase for Rise of the Resistance if you did TRON and Guardians. The reason I say start at Hollywood Studios is twofold: first, there are a lot more heavy hitter attractions that you need the Genie for at Hollywood Studios than there are at Epcot. If Slinky is on your list, book that first right at 7am because it will back up into the late afternoon within minutes (sometimes even in seconds). The second reason is transportation. You can take the Skyliner from DHS to Epcot and then the monorail from Epcot to MK, so it’s nice to experience the different forms of transportation. You could even get out at the Transportation and Ticket Center (where you stop between Epcot and MK) and walk over to the ferry and use that to complete your journey to the Magic Kingdom. Hope you have an amazing day!
@@EarScoutsThank you for the advice!! Yea I don't plan on buying individual lightning lanes so I accepted my losses for those rides 😂 thanks for the advice!! Can't wait for our trip 😄
Hello, love your videos! I am taking my wife, 4 & 1 year old's for a 2 day magic kingdom trip. Do you have a 2 day itinerary that you recommend for my situation by any chance?
Hi Sara! If I’m staying at a Disney resort, I prefer to use the bus because it drops me closer than I can park and I can take the bus back to the resort at the end of the night. If I’m not at a resort, I prefer to drive so my car is at the park where I end the day and I can easily get home. Keep in mind if you don’t have an AP and you’re staying at a non-Disney hotel, you will have to pay for parking, so in that scenario, it may be more cost-effective to just Uber to get there and back, but I’d save some $$$ and use the Disney bus to hop. Thanks for watching! 😃
Great video! We live pretty close to Vero and I've never thought of staying at the resort, but it might be nice for a weekend trip. Do you recommend booking directly with Disney or renting DVC points? Or some other way?
@@veromikes after doing some searching it seems very difficult to find an open date at Vero. Not something you can just book a few weeks in advance it seems.
Thanks for the info. It was our first time staying there and we were in a studio which we were told were the smallest rooms. Perhaps there was confusion over there being different types of studios as we were unaware that there was more than one type. Apologies for sharing incorrect information. We do our best but make mistakes sometimes.
@@EarScouts sorry, couple drinks in and random attitude/edginess set in, but the villa studios are the smallest rooms, half the size of a room inside the inn, horribly small.
Ye the studios in the inn are lovely but those in the villas are shockingly small it’s often to do with the roofline I’ve been many times to 1 and 2 beds which are lovely but attempted an accessible studio 😱never again it was awful I couldn’t even access the balcony or move around the room in my wheelchair
Hi Rob, I’m obsessed with your videos, I think I have watched almost everyone in less than a week Lol. Could you try and do a Park Hopper between Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studio with Genie+ with early park entry 🥹. I’m going on September and I’m making my strategy to maximize my day 🥹😇 Thanks for what you do ❤
I just did this today but started with MK....So MK to AK to HS...did it on day 5 with 3 kids under 10. Its very possible once you know what youre doing. In total it was 13 miles that we walked so my kids are exhausted. I also took a Lyft between parks instead of the buses just to save more time. Genie plus is easier in reality than it seems watching videos
@@willt.8645 Thank you so much. By the time that I’m going is “low” season so I’m pretty confident I can do both. And also I’m planning to take my car so is easier to get to both parks, I guest 🥴. Thanks 😊

Hi Craig! Good to hear from you. Hope you’re having a great summer. 🌞😀 Thanks for watching!
My husband is from Hawaii, and the Loco Moco is all the rage for breakfast. He would have loved that! 😋 Great video as always.
Hello! Yes, it was really fun to try something Hawaiian that we’d never had before - and it was super tasty. Thanks - as always - for watching! 😃

You need to head to Hilton Head Island Resort

We like spending a few days after WDW trip to relax before going home. It is only an hour and a half away.
I can never find reservations here or in Hilton head

Rent points.
