One of the advices I gave people who asked me about Disney vacations is: Don’t let little disappointment ruin your vacation. Adapt and have a magical time. Great video guys. Thanks for bringing back staycation Sundays.
I’m sorry but this just makes me mad. The Grand Flo is already expensive, and even more during Christmas time. To pay all that and not enjoy the resort! No thank you. I stayed at the Poly during the summer and I won’t ever again. It’s a monorail resort so the lobby/Pool is always packed. For me, if I’m paying all that money to stay at these resorts I should be able to enjoy what it has to offer.
It wouldn’t be so bad at the resorts if they actually made sure only people with reservations staying or food wise got access to the resorts from the monorail like they do with vehicles
Kyle I just saw the house you were looking at on Zillow! What a pretty house in celebration but don’t you think 775 thousand dollars for a starter house is a little out of your budget? I would try renting first so you don’t get stuck having to foreclose!!!!
I have a boot dryer that I use for those awful days that my boots get wet at work, They work fantastic for tennis shoes and small enough that you can take it on your travels. My family never leaves home without it now when we head to the parks. Just a thought that might help some travelers out.
I haven’t seen this channel for a long time and then RUclips put this video in my feed. First time seeing KC, she is stunning. She has an elegance about her, like a Disney Princes. Way to go Kyle. You look good together.
We just got back from the Grand Floridian Club Level room and it was amazing. We got a decent price with the passholder discount. The food and closeness to the park were definitely worth the money.
It's very unfortunate people pay a lot of money to stay at these deluxe resorts and can't even enjoy them because of so many people who aren't even staying there. You can stay at a deluxe resort and not even get a reservation at one of the restaurants or find anywhere to just sit and relax in the lobby. It's nice that one can visit the different resorts and see what they have to offer, but on the other hand, for the guests staying there, it is very frustrating. I've seen people just walk into the pool area there who weren't even staying there. They just walked in. The gate wasn't even locked to resort guests only. We stayed in the building directly opposite and I often saw it.
I was there that Saturday when it was pouring, cold and windy!!!! It was miserable!!!! We were in MK and left about 4pm and went back to our hotel. I've never left Disney early due to weather but it was so gross
Kyle did you film this on Friday Dec 15th? I was there with my family that night for a bit. We did the monorail loop to see the Christmas trees and Disney Springs before our cruise.
I was just there this weekend and yes it was a mad house due to the rain. That hotel was packed with people. Beautiful Christmas tree. Wilderness Lodge was also a mad house due to the rain.
Thank God we changed our trip. We were supposed to be at the Grand right now and we saved $5000 to change it to second week in January. Hopefully MUCH lower crowds.
People will pay these upgrade prices. Beautiful resort and room! Always enjoy a Grand Floridian stay! 😊Thank you for the video Kyle!!😊(Love The Enchanted Rose!)😊Where did Casey get her jersey!? So cute!!😊 Looks like you had a relaxing and fun evening!!😊❤
Casey isn't lying! She's kinda right these storms hitting different this year. Love all the videos so far. And appreciate the work you put in on giving daily vlogs it's not easy but your doing it. Well done kyle well done!. 🎄
Well you actually have a first staycation to me. A Staycation to me is gettin a room at a nice resort/hotel and celebrating in the room……STAYcation! Looks like you had a good one. 🌲🌴❤️
Merry Christmas you guys! Hope your christmas is merry and clean and all of your christmases be green! Have you ever had a white christmas? my brother inlaw is a Packers fan...but i am not! i am from Pittsburgh...Die Hard Steelers fan...Go Steelers ..lol...Have a great week!
Question we are planning on going to Disney the first week in December in 2026 “spending 9 days there” and plan on renting dvc point through Dave’s vacation club rentals. What would suggest for a really nice dvc resort? Nothing really expensive, but is big enough for a family of 4 that you can actually can move around in the room without bumping into each.other. I kinda narrow it down to wilderness lodge, Grand Floridian and maybe ft wilderness dvc (when they come, but I am sure those will be very expensive) also the boardwalk. Thank you
Old Key West is good but I'd try to get close to the hospitality house. Otherwise you could be out far. I'd suggest looking at a map of the resorts to see what's best for you. I own dvc at Saratoga Springs and love it cause it's quieter than other resorts in my opinion. And it's walking distance to walking distance to Disney Springs.
Kyle you have a great channel but you need to be more grateful. Most of us don’t have what you have. I mean a job or job but you can not afford places like this to travel to. Let alone upscale resort in Disney. Crowds are part of Disney World at least I thought so. Just a reminder some people are dealing with a lot this time of year. I still like your channel. 🎄
Definitely a perfect night and place for room service, wine and Holiday movie. 🎄 Now if you had only brought your Christmas jammies and that engagement 💍, you would have knocked it out of the park Kyle. ❤
The hurdles you faced in this video are actually what a lot of people face on vacations. It just shows how well you can adapt and make the best of your situation. Plans can’t always go as you want. Loved this.
I’m coming down on Christmas Day and going to the grand Floridian just to talk to a manager at Victoria and Albert’s to ask to them about a job and if they every hire haha 🤗
I remember the band at GF. It was daily. They used to play in the afternoon / evenings at GF right outside Mizner's. When they renovated Mizners and turned it into Enchanted Pose, the Band moved Downstairs. Then Disney cancelled them. Bad move IMO. But I guess they get more money with the newly themed bar.
The room service looks pretty yummy! I would have done the same thing! Definitely a more relaxing time in the room, which you might as well enjoy since the Grand Flo is $$$. Get your monies worth! 😊
So great to see all of Casey in the vlogs and not just her beautiful nails! Best part of a Staycation is just enjoying each other! Thanks for taking us along for the ride! The weather is very unfortunate now for some cruises - things are getting canceled :( Let's hope Mother Nature gets this out of her system by End of Jan! Wendy Lady
Just left Saturday from two floors above with our family. We had an incredible vacation and fortunately for us missed the crazy lines. The resort is absolutely amazing with all the amenities and cast members. Hopefully things will settle down and you will enjoy the rest of your staycation with Casey.
I never understand why people don't put on a pair of crocs and a very good poncho and go enjoy the parks on rainy days? Everything would be pretty much walk on. Rainy days would be the best days as far as crowds I think?
Wowsers, those lines! Good idea to stay in the room and order room service. I was so hoping you got a free upgrade, we amazingly got one just over a week ago and were moved to a two bedroom suite, best surprise ever, especially since we'd never be able to afford that suite!
Kyle I have a question for you. Several years ago I was at Disney Springs when it was downtown Disney and somebody lost their wallet I pick it up and took back to hotel and gave it to hotel manager and they told me I should have just left it their. I know you work at hotels what is the procall for something like that. There person call us and said thank it belong to their daughter.
I hope you both had a nice weekend stay. Can you tell me were Casey got her overnight bag? I have seen it in all your trips it looks really nice. Thanks in advance 😊
Kyle, I see the house is pending on 13 Dec. I guess you are gong through with the purchase. You might want to rethink that if people know where the home is located, just saying.
Grand Floridian is our home away from home. Stay here 3-4 times a year, usually by Narcoossee's. Last time we were here it poured for several hours. Worse lightning storm I have ever been in. Never saw crowds like this before. Won't return until they fire the CEO Bobby.
I wish you would stay again at the wilderness Lodge. It’s beautiful at Christmas. This was nice too bad it rained for you and all of the people no thank you good job, Casey and Kyle.
Just a recommendation if this happens again. Show us what it would be like to order from Uber Eats or something like it. I see questions about it a lot on Disney and Universal pages so would be nice to see.
Uber Eats can come up right to your room at a place like saratoga springs because of the parking lots for every building on that resort. Resorts like Grand Flo you can go get your delivery from the lobby.
FYI the rooms look exactly the same in the main building of GF in the club rooms and the new DVC resort room. The other DVC rooms look different and those rooms haven’t had a full make over just a refresh - besides the new part of DVC resort rooms.
We went to the Grand yesterday and must have just missed you on our last day at WDW. It was crazy from the lines to waiting for quick service. Still an amazing place to see this time of year! Sorry we had to head back home.
Good one on Basins. You made both my husband and I literally laugh out loud. I’m sure we will only call it Baaahsins from now on😂😂😂❤❤!! Merry Christmas
Someday you should splurge and stay main building. It is unbelievable! Nothing quite like walking out of your room and seeing the grand Floridian lobby. The club level food is really nice. Also the back elevator to the snack shop is really nice.
the man playing piano is awesome. He was so welcoming when I stopped by to listen to his playing during my trip last June. 😊
Couldn't agree more!
These type of staycations are sometimes the best -- very relaxing and chill. A true staycation.
Please don't call it the Grand Flow. LOL Just seems.... off.
Yeah
One of the advices I gave people who asked me about Disney vacations is: Don’t let little disappointment ruin your vacation. Adapt and have a magical time. Great video guys. Thanks for bringing back staycation Sundays.
Kyle next time pick up dropped it lat items a return to guest service.
I’m sorry but this just makes me mad. The Grand Flo is already expensive, and even more during Christmas time. To pay all that and not enjoy the resort! No thank you. I stayed at the Poly during the summer and I won’t ever again. It’s a monorail resort so the lobby/Pool is always packed. For me, if I’m paying all that money to stay at these resorts I should be able to enjoy what it has to offer.
Please do staycations at moderate and value resorts and show the amenities. Not everyone can afford deluxe😊
It wouldn’t be so bad at the resorts if they actually made sure only people with reservations staying or food wise got access to the resorts from the monorail like they do with vehicles
I went to Disney world in November thanksgiving week and the crowds weren’t bad at all and Christmas decorations were out!
yes, all of the rooms in the main building are Club Level. I'm surprised they had availability though, especially this time of the year.
Kyle I just saw the house you were looking at on Zillow! What a pretty house in celebration but don’t you think 775 thousand dollars for a starter house is a little out of your budget? I would try renting first so you don’t get stuck having to foreclose!!!!
Who are you to know what his budget is? Totally insane.
why would you say where the house is when kyle didn't say where the location is. and you have no idea what hi budget is?
Wow, MYOB. You sound like a crazy stalker.
You don’t know what his budget is.
@@kathymcel definitely a stalker

Welcome back!

Love Grand Floridian! Excited to visit Disney again in a weeks!! Thanks for the video Kyle!!

Never ever had to wait for Enchanted Rose nor has it ever been full inside that’s insane 😮
I was there that Saturday when it was pouring, cold and windy!!!! It was miserable!!!! We were in MK and left about 4pm and went back to our hotel. I've never left Disney early due to weather but it was so gross
GF is very nice, but Club Level at that pricing is basically for super wealthy. I prefer stay at the Wilderness Lodge in December.
Kyle did you film this on Friday Dec 15th? I was there with my family that night for a bit. We did the monorail loop to see the Christmas trees and Disney Springs before our cruise.
I was just there this weekend and yes it was a mad house due to the rain. That hotel was packed with people. Beautiful Christmas tree. Wilderness Lodge was also a mad house due to the rain.
It’s a beautiful and comfortable room. Enjoy it.
That was a nice staycation sunday i love the grand flordian its pretty love you guys ❤
I love when you show Florida rain. I live in California and don’t get much rain only 13 inches a year.
That was a nice staycation Sunday! The room service looks pretty yummy! Great Daily Dose
Thank God we changed our trip. We were supposed to be at the Grand right now and we saved $5000 to change it to second week in January. Hopefully MUCH lower crowds.
That's when we've gone and the crowds weren't bad at all.
Great time to go!
Thank you for this vlog. I loveee that hotel. My dream Disney hotel
So glad staycation Sundays are back!
People will pay these upgrade prices. Beautiful resort and room! Always enjoy a Grand Floridian stay! 😊Thank you for the video Kyle!!😊(Love The Enchanted Rose!)😊Where did Casey get her jersey!? So cute!!😊 Looks like you had a relaxing and fun evening!!😊❤
Hi. What happ🎉 to Laura?? ❤
Casey- your spirit jersey!!! Wow 🔥
The wedding stuff you can find anywhere
They need to restrict access to these resorts in some capacity.
Looks like a relaxing evening. Would not spend 2000 for club level. If it's that much hope they are serving Lobster and Filet.
Casey isn't lying! She's kinda right these storms hitting different this year. Love all the videos so far. And appreciate the work you put in on giving daily vlogs it's not easy but your doing it. Well done kyle well done!. 🎄
We were there same day probably an hour before you guys. It was INSANE!! But beautiful!
$2000 to hear the lobby chaos all day :D. I'll just have to stick to the DVC villas with my empty wallet lol.
Well you actually have a first staycation to me. A Staycation to me is gettin a room at a nice resort/hotel and celebrating in the room……STAYcation! Looks like you had a good one. 🌲🌴❤️
Wait! You stayed at a deluxe resort and didn't decorate your door?!?!?! Wasn't this just discussed? Missed opportunity : /
I have said this before but a trip to Boston would be awesome ❤
Merry Christmas you guys! Hope your christmas is merry and clean and all of your christmases be green! Have you ever had a white christmas? my brother inlaw is a Packers fan...but i am not! i am from Pittsburgh...Die Hard Steelers fan...Go Steelers ..lol...Have a great week!
Hey Kyle!! We love Port Orleans river side! And seeing bob jackson play piano! You should totally do a staycation there I don’t remember one recently!
Best lobby is Animal Kingdom Lodge, I've been to all lobbies

Old Key West. Kyle and Alexa have stayed there and filmed it👍

They have literally just been together for a year..let them enjoy their relationship stop pressuring engagement
Title is so misleading.
Disney hotel plaza is a good option
Merry Christmas 🎄 from Mrs Lemons and family
I think it’s crazy at the GF there’s not a little table and a couple chairs to sit and enjoy room service?? Pretty room tho.
Only $148 ,what a deal. I think we can all relate to spending that much on marginal food.
Casey! I have the same spirit jersey!!
The hurdles you faced in this video are actually what a lot of people face on vacations. It just shows how well you can adapt and make the best of your situation. Plans can’t always go as you want. Loved this.

U don’t need it anymore

I just keep thinking how many people have had their butts on that duvet?!!! 😳
@@iluvcruisingwell they do change and wash the sheets and blankets so there’s that.

Yeah melon cups gotta be like 3.99
Luckily grapes are like $10 a bag nowadays
That’s what we call a holiday bustle
I never understand why people don't put on a pair of crocs and a very good poncho and go enjoy the parks on rainy days? Everything would be pretty much walk on. Rainy days would be the best days as far as crowds I think?
Did i miss the Celebration Hotel staycation? If not, make that the last staycation.
Wow Kyle no gimbal you are pro nice video
Kyle & Casey (we may need to …..starve) the funniest reply to Casey 😂😂
Wowsers, those lines! Good idea to stay in the room and order room service. I was so hoping you got a free upgrade, we amazingly got one just over a week ago and were moved to a two bedroom suite, best surprise ever, especially since we'd never be able to afford that suite!

That’s a Beis bag. I have one.
So happy Staycation Sundays are back 💙 much love to Kyle and Casey from far western KY 💙
I'm way up in northern Kentucky
Wow, lines like that in a resort, that's crazy!! Room service & movies on a rainy day, that's a great staycation!!
Isn’t this where Casey works?
Kyle, I see the house is pending on 13 Dec. I guess you are gong through with the purchase. You might want to rethink that if people know where the home is located, just saying.
Where is it located?
What the heck? How did people find out the location? Weird!!
Christmas at Wilderness lodge please
Save the coins for your house purchase.

Very Enjoyable Kyle and Casey!! Thanks
I do like your shirt
My favorite hotel in the world.🎄🎄Thank y’all for staying there!!!!

I wish you would stay again at the wilderness Lodge. It’s beautiful at Christmas. This was nice too bad it rained for you and all of the people no thank you good job, Casey and Kyle.
That room is gorgeous! Love Casey's Spirit Jersey.😊

So excited staycation Sunday is back!! 🎉
Good one on Basins. You made both my husband and I literally laugh out loud. I’m sure we will only call it Baaahsins from now on😂😂😂❤❤!! Merry Christmas
I love the fact that Grand Floridian is Mary Poppins Themed from both Movies
I remember when only resort guests were allowed to use the monorail … guests would show their id when getting on
Tampa native here. Sorry about your packers. Go Bucs go. 😊😂. Love your videos ❤
Yess staycation Sunday!
Because the Polynesian means so much to both of you. You guys should try to stay there for the end of the year!
Omg. I was going to ask where Lora was. Hope she is doing well. Great vlog. Always enjoy you and Casey making these stay cations. ❤😁
