Now Open! The Villas at Disneyland Hotel at Disneyland Resort

A cheerful gathering in front of a colorful hotel; costumed characters and a crowd celebrate a festive event outdoors.

Disney Vacation Club has unveiled its 16th property, The Villas at Disneyland Hotel, located at the Disneyland Resort. This new tower, named "Discovery," is the fourth and latest addition to the Disneyland Hotel's accommodations. Notably, each of the Disneyland Hotel towers has its distinctive name: "Fantasy," "Adventure," and "Frontier."

Within this 12-story tower, guests can find 344 themed rooms that pay homage to the enchanting world of Walt Disney Animation Studios. These rooms are just a stone's throw away from all the enchantment of the Disneyland Resort theme parks.

Bill Diercksen, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Disney Vacation Club, remarked, "The Villas at Disneyland Hotel celebrates the remarkable legacy of Walt Disney Animation Studios' storytelling and the creative process these talented artists go through to bring Disney characters to life from sketch to screen. With imaginative details and spacious accommodations, this beautiful new tower is the perfect place for families to create magical vacation memories for years to come."

The dedication event in California was brimming with beloved Disney characters. Princess Tiana, Anna, Elsa, King Louie, and Baloo, all featured in the tower's custom artwork, joined the celebration. Disney on Broadway legend Kissy Simmons closed the event with a stirring performance of the new Disney Vacation Club anthem, "Where We Belong (Welcome Home)."

Here are four compelling reasons to explore this latest Disney Vacation Club resort:

1. Immerse Yourself in Disney Stories: The Villas at Disneyland Hotel pays homage to the art of storytelling, with artistic details woven throughout every space. The lobby features a captivating mural by Disney Animation artist Lorelay Bové, known for her work on "The Princess and the Frog" and "Encanto." This artwork brings together beloved characters, scenes, and even a sneak peek from the upcoming Walt Disney Animation Studios film, "Wish." From the lobby to the 344 guestrooms, the worlds of "Sleeping Beauty," "Fantasia," and "The Princess and the Frog" come to life.

2. Enjoy Comfortable Accommodations: The Villas at Disneyland Hotel offers various room types for families of all sizes. Options include duo studios for two and spacious deluxe studios for up to four guests. Larger groups can choose one- or two-bedroom villas with full-size kitchens, comfortable living areas, and washer and dryer facilities. For the ultimate space, the multi-level Grand Villas accommodate up to 12 guests and include three bedrooms, a full-size kitchen, a spacious dining area, washer and dryer, and a double-sided fireplace connecting to a private outdoor balcony.

3. Fun in the Sun: The brand-new Palette Pool area promises fun for all ages. The "Steamboat Willie" splash pad, inspired by the iconic sound cartoon debut of Mickey Mouse, offers a playful water experience for kids. Guests can also unwind at the Palm Breeze Bar, set to open later this year, for poolside refreshments.

4. Ideal Location: The Villas at Disneyland Hotel's prime location places guests just steps away from Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park, and the Downtown Disney District. Additionally, guests can take advantage of the resort's two existing pool areas and water slides.

Disney Vacation Club looks forward to welcoming guests to The Villas at Disneyland Hotel, and today's opening celebration was filled with Disney magic!
