Save Up to 25% Off Disney World Resorts to Spring Break 2025

Walt Disney World has released new general public resort discounts of up to 25% off hotel room rates for the first quarter of next year, covering travel dates through the end of Spring Break 2025. This post shares the details of these special offers, with commentary about the savings, sample pricing and analysis.

This is one of a growing number of special offers that has been released thus far for 2025 Walt Disney World vacations, with offers for Annual Passholders and Florida Residents. This isn’t even the only general public promo, as the biggest one–Save Up to $200 Per Night at Walt Disney World–runs through Summer 2025.

For every other special offer that’s currently available for the remainder of this year, see All Current Walt Disney World Discounts (2024). There are promos available for pretty much all dates between now and Christmas, with even more available for next year if you take a trip this year. So that’s worth checking out if you’re debating a trip in the next several months. What we’re looking at today is the first slew of discounts for that run through Spring 2025…

Per Walt Disney World, here are the deal details: Stay in the magic in early 2025 with this special offer on rooms at select Disney Resort hotels!

Here’s the resort by resort general public discount chart provided by Walt Disney World for January through April 2025:

Offer excludes the following room types: 3-Bedroom Villas; Deluxe Suites; Cabins at Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge; Tower Studios at Disney’s Riviera Resort; and Bungalows and Island Tower 2-Bedroom Penthouses at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows.

Additional per-adult charges may apply if more than 2 adults per room at Value, Moderate and Deluxe Resorts and Studios at Deluxe Villa Resorts. Maximum length of stay under this deal is 14 nights. Cannot be combined with any other discount or promotion.

Reservations may be made online (here), by phone, or via your Authorized Disney Vacation Planner. If you’re reading this on the day the discount goes live, don’t be surprised if there’s a virtual queue for online bookings or a wait on the phones. Both have been improving in recent months, though, and are not nearly as bad as they were a year or so ago.

If you want to help determining which discounts are available for your travel dates and which resort will work best for your family, we highly recommend requesting a quote from Be Our Guest Vacations, a no-fee Authorized Disney Vacation Planner. The agents there will do the math for you, booking your vacation with the best-available special offer, and monitoring your package for future discounts that can be applied retroactively.

In particular, they can help you determine whether this room-only discount or the Free Disney Dining Card is the better deal for you, given your party size, resort preference, and eating preferences. Beyond that, Authorized Disney Vacation Planners help take the stress out of planning and will assist with itineraries, ADRs, and much more.

Here’s what we found for best available rates for this Winter & Spring 2025 discount:

This search is for the night of February 4, 2025, which is part of the Value rate season at Walt Disney World. On the rack rate chart spectrum, this is the least expensive time to visit Walt Disney World in 2025–of the entire year. Similarly-priced dates can be found throughout January and into early February, with slightly higher (but still relatively reasonable) rates available in late February and early March.

Friday through Sunday nights are all going to be more expensive, and less consistent. In general, Friday and Saturday will be the most expensive days of the week, with Sunday through Thursday costing less–but still more than Monday through Wednesday nights. Holiday weeks are also more expensive. Basically, room rates are higher any time when kids are out of school.

My assessment of this discount is mostly positive. But honestly, analysis of these room-only discounts has become somewhat boring since they’ve fallen back into fairly familiar patterns. Don’t get me wrong. I like boring. Boring is better from a consumer’s perspective because it’s more straightforward and transparent. From a blogger’s perspective, it’s not as hot since there are only so many things you can say about these room-only deals without repeating yourself over and over again.

In this case, the big difference year to year is that there was a “book early to save more” component to this deal for comparable 2024 travel dates. If you booked by mid-December of last year, you saved 5% more on each tier. The savings charts are otherwise similar–with the normal shuffling of hotels here and there–but that’s a fairly significant difference. That was one of the best winter and spring deals we had ever seen offered by Walt Disney World. (In fairness, it was also confusing and ended early because it proved so popular.)

That’s not to diminish the savings available via this offer. Between the favorable ‘Value Season’ rate charts and percentage savings, there are some very good deals to be had here. All Stars for under or around $100, Pop Century for sub-$150, Coronado Springs for just north of $200, and several Deluxe Resorts in the $400 per night neighborhood, which are relatively reasonable rates. All of those rates are significantly better than the lowest prices for the October to December deals–but the difference is that the starting point is lower for the January and February off-season. (Spring Break is a totally different story!)

At the lower end of the spectrum, these savings make the Value and Moderate Resorts tough to beat. You’re going to be hard-pressed to do better than the rates Walt Disney World is offering if you can find availability for your travel dates. For instance, ~$100 per night for the All Stars–with the new rooms, Early Entry, transportation, and free parking–is a very fair price, in our view.

Oh, and don’t forget the return of the on-site advantage of ride reservations! If you’re going to purchase the new line-skipping service, having the 7-day window (plus length of stay–up to 14 days) is huge. It’s probably going to be make-or-break when it comes to booking Slinky Dog Dash, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and other headliners. See our Lightning Lane Multi-Pass at Walt Disney World FAQ.

Of course, rooms are not as cheap as what you would’ve paid this same time in 2019, let alone 2016. Back in my day, the All Stars had off-season rates that were routinely $79 per night or less! Unfortunately, it’s impossible to book those past prices. Even with that in mind, this isn’t too far from that when adjusted for inflation.

Another very notable thing about this discount is that the best rates are more remote–for “most nights” from February 23 through April 30, 2025. Presumably, this is because bookings are already looking fairly healthy of the first couple months, and Walt Disney World doesn’t want to be too generous with savings during the time of year when rack rates are already at their lowest.

This isn’t a huge shock since Walt Disney World did the same thing last year. Moreover, January and February have gotten progressively busier in the parks and, even more so, at the hotels. There’ a reason we wrote Why Are Walt Disney World Resorts Sold Out in 2024? back in late January–because there was limited availability throughout the first 2.5 months of the year at times that are not historically peak season.

Not only are a ton of cheer, dance, and other sporting events in the winter and spring months, but we also noticed a lot of convention bookings as well as international tour groups from South America. The parks were busier in winter than expected, but the hotels were disproportionately so. Likely at least in part due to the highly favorable rates offered by last year’s “book early and save more” deal. The 2025 incarnation of this special offer doesn’t come close to the best rates offered by that.

Speaking of elevated occupancy and crowds, if your travel dates are flexible and you’re wondering which dates are best, check out our Best & Worst Weeks to Visit Walt Disney World in 2025-2026. A couple of our top 10 weeks of the entire year are covered by this promo, and as we explain in those rankings, winter and early spring can be fantastic times to visit WDW from a qualitative perspective!

Ultimately, this is another discount that’s earlier and better than what we were seeing in 2021-2022, which continues a trend that began at the start of this year and really accelerated around this time last year. Unfortunately, the year-over-year savings are inferior to what was released for winter and spring of this year due to the dropping of the “book early and save more” component, but that was fairly unprecedented and hugely popular.

As always, plan on being flexible with your hotel choice, room category, and travel dates for the biggest savings. Even as other dates have seen a slowdown at Walt Disney World, winter and early spring have remained resilient, so you should count on many of these dates being at least somewhat competitive. That’s doubly true here, as there have already been several discounts that have dropped for this date range.

Walt Disney World offering more special offers to the general public is great news, and definitively demonstrates that travel trends are normalizing now after running hot for way too long. During that period of pent-up demand, Walt Disney World was able to ‘get away’ with pretty much anything and still see record guest spending and insatiable demand. Consumers now appear to once again have more leverage, and companies need to entice them to visit.

This should be an interesting saga to follow, and it’s almost certain that we haven’t seen the end of Walt Disney World’s efforts to woo back former fans and pull “levers” to incentivize more demand and guest spending. If bookings remain soft–and we’re anticipating they will–it’ll be interesting to see what type of more unique promotions (beyond room discounts!) are released for Spring 2025 and beyond, especially with Universal’s Epic Universe looming large.

Perhaps we’ll see a return of the “book early and save more” angle with the next special offer release–it sure feels like things are trending in the right direction for even more aggressive offers! We will be closely monitoring what’s released and will notify subscribers of our free email newsletter when any Walt Disney World discounts are released or rumored!
