That right there is the big question though. Will there be any room discounts this fall with so many hotels still closed and the draw of the 50th celebration? After looking at some of these hotel prices I'm really glad that we bought points a while back.There are no discounts out for that time period yet, so the prices you are seeing are Disney's rack rate for those dates.
Smart! I wonder when the new Dolphin Preserve hotel will actually open.The Dolphin for the same time is $270/night. Given most of the advantages of staying onsite are gone that might be the direction we will go.
The 50th Anniversary celebration begins on Oct 1 and continues for 18 months. There is a lot of pent up travel demand and the celebration is a good excuse for travel plans. There are only a few Value and Moderate resort open at this time, and they typically will be the first to be booked up. At $470/ night you are probably only seeing prices for Deluxe resorts.

I'll also keep an eye on Disney's discounts & might still stay at a Disney-owned resort when we go IF the shocking prices come down.
