Disney World offers a variety of on-property resort hotels. These moderate-priced accommodations come with many of the same perks as the higher priced deluxe resorts offer, including free on-property transportation, extra magic hours and the Disney dining plan. Disney's moderate resorts are available to guests who prefer a few additional amenities during their stay.
Moderate resort rates are $149 to $274 a night (sometimes lower during special rate promotions).
