Hi! I’m going on my first WDW trip, as an avid Disneylander 😱

Details:

June 8-13
2 Adults
Animal Kingdom Kidani Village (Deluxe Studio)
Planning for one day at MK, one day at AK, and two days at EPCOT. HS just does not interest us lol.

If you have any advice for surviving the heat, let me know, haha.

Oh so fun!


FREQUENT breaks from the heat - I go to Florida a lot in the summer and I am very sensitive to the heat. I have a small fan I can attach to my shirt or crossbody that is great to get some airflow and AKL has nice pools that are good for a break during the high heat of the day. I also tend to plan to get lunch around 1-2 pm to get out of the worst heat of the day. Always carry a water bottle with you and have Liquid IV or something similar with you because the humidity is shocking for how much it depletes your sodium levels/electrolytes even when it's not so bad just because of the position of the sun. We tend to get the resort mugs because we have a routine where one of us will hop into the shower first while the other runs to the quick service to fill up the mugs with something so we can refuel our electrolytes before we get ready for bed. It helps us relax and also helps us not feel super gross the next morning. Some people swear by those towels you can wet and it helps you cool off. I have used them but they don't help me much

June is also a little weird. Sometimes (like when I was down last year) it is GORGEOUS - 70s and 80s and low humidity, we only had a couple really big rainstorms, and then a couple years ago we had no rainstorms but it was in the 100s and so humid.
 
We'll be there June 18-24, doing yet another triple split stay (why do we keep doing this to ourselves? :rotfl2: ) Starting at AKL, then moving to GF, and ending at WL.
Serious question - with so many WDW trips under your belt, why would you want to do triple split stays? Wouldn't it be better to just find two places instead of three?

I haven't ever done a split stay before, but we have our first planned for this coming June - Beach Club for five nights, then Bay Lake Tower for 3. We plan to do two resort days to fully take advantage of Beach Club - Stormalong Bay, Surrey Bikes, Cape May Cafe, Skyliner to Riviera for dining, etc. We plan on one resort day at BLT to resort hop the monorail loop.

We also really like the idea of three park days split between Epcot and Hollywood Studios, then two park days at MK (with maybe a half day at AK). So splitting between Beach Club and BLT is the perfect way to take full advantage of proximity.

Is there a particular reason you're splitting between GF and WL instead of picking one of the two?

Great question! So we have various reasons depending on the trip. For this one, we booked club level at the GF, and typically when we book club level at a hotel, we want to get to that hotel first thing the morning of our stay to take full advantage. Because of this, we'll often book a cheaper hotel the night before so we can move over to the club hotel first thing the following morning. This trip originally started as just a two hotel split stay because of this, but then we booked after hours at MK on what was the last night of the trip, but then we realized we didn't want to fly home the day after that so booked another night. However we didn't want to spend GF CL money for an extra night, so decided to move over to WL that last night since we got a great bounce back rate for that room.

Normally split stays like this for us start as just two hotels, mostly to be near MK on party nights, then moving down to an Epcot area resort which we usually prefer. Then they end up becoming triple splits when we decide to add days and can only get discounted rates at hotels other than what we have booked.
