Let me start by saying that I LOVED this resort! It was perfect for our family and fit in with our budget for our trip to Disney World. We stayed off-site and on-site so that we could experience both of them and see what was best for our next trip. We will stay on-site for our Disney World part of the trip.
Resort
The All Resorts at Disney World are what they class as a value resort (cheapest and basic) on-site. There were 5 of us travelling this trip, and now that my girls are teens, we like to have extra room and 2 bathrooms! All Stars music had suites available that slept up to 6 people, so it was my pick. We paid USD 250 per night (AUD 375) for the 5 of us in the family suite. It’s not cheap when converted to AUD, but it’s worth it for the perks of staying on site.
The Room
The room had 2 bedrooms (a king bed in one room and 2 doubles in the main room), 2 bathrooms, a kitchenette with a full-size fridge and HEAPS of storage. The lounge and table fold down into murphy beds, which is fantastic because you can fold them up during the day for extra room.
Why stay on site at Disney World?
The perks! Resort guests can get early theme park entry, free Disney transport (buses), early access to booking Lightning lanes, and you can use your MagicBands as your room key and to make purchases at the resort.
The “Disney bubble”, where you get to experience that little extra Disney magic like theming, pools, activities, food court and Disney shops.
Would I have picked a deluxe or higher class resort for our stay?
Maybe if the budget allowed, but I would rather spend that money in the parks as we didn't spend to much time in our room. We loved our stay at All Stars Music and would stay here next time too. We had so much room and loved all of the storage for a big family.
Tips and Perks
👉🏻If you plan on staying on site at Disney World, make sure you sign up for emails and watch for sales/deals as they come up regularly. You can book your room and cancel and rebook (without fees) if a sale does come up.
👉🏻You can purchase a resort refillable mug that you can fill up for unlimited soft drinks, tea and coffee for your entire stay. I thought it was a nice touch and a special treat for the kids to have on our trip (you can’t use them at the parks).
👉🏻Free condiments for you to use. I noticed a lot of guests going up to the dining hall in the morning and using the toasters and free condiments, which was fantastic if you want to save money.
👉🏻Parking is FREE at the parks for resort guests, so if you don’t want to catch buses and have a hire car, you can drive and park for free.
