Disney World vacations are notoriously expensive, even for families who choose budget accommodations and limit their spending on meals and souvenirs. A standard room at a Disney-owned budget resort will cost vacationers between $175 and $265 each night, depending on the day and season, and as the rooms get bigger, with better views and more amenities, the prices only go up. Here's what you can get when money is no object:
For $1,624 a night, an African kraal-inspired two-bedroom suite at the Animal Kingdom Lodge can sleep up to eight adults and offers views of the surrounding savanna habitats.
Prefer a traditional hotel suite atmosphere? Try a Presidential or VP Suite at one of the Deluxe Resorts. Most of these rooms run about $3,000 per night, but some — like the ones at the Animal Kingdom Lodge — start at about $5,300.
If you crave a little privacy away from the crowds, try a Bora Bora Bungalow at the Polynesian Village Resort. Each standalone bungalow sleeps up to eight people and includes a private back deck with a plunge pool, starting at just $2,800 each night.
Do you dream of a night at the top of Cinderella's castle? It probably won't happen — guests of the Cinderella Castle Suite have to be invited or win a contest. But if you're visiting on the $12,000 World of Dreams Tour, you can pay extra to tour the suite yourself.
If you like your privacy and enjoy a limitless budget, consider renting the entire 16th floor of the Four Seasons Resort Orlando for $70,000 a night. You'll get access to 21 bedrooms and can watch the nightly fireworks display from your spacious private terrace. It's worth it.
