Oh, you thought this Disney resorts list was only going to cover Orlando? The Walt Disney Company owns and operates hotels, resorts, and villas all around the word. When you have an upcoming trip, it helps to group Disney resort hotels by city and nearby theme parks.

Disney resorts are owned and operated by the Walt Disney Company (primarily through its Disney Parks & Resorts division), and they are organized into clear Disney resort categories, including value resorts, moderate resorts, deluxe resorts, and Disney Vacation Club resorts.

Staying on Disney property often includes perks like early park entry, Disney transportation options, and the same on-site benefits across resort hotels.

Orlando is home to Walt Disney World Resort, the largest Disney destination in the world.

Guests staying at Disney World resort hotels enjoy early park entry, integrated transportation, and access to Disney experiences throughout their Disney vacation.

1 in Ko'Olina, Hawaii

Set on the leeward coast of Oahu, Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, blends Disney storytelling with Native Hawaiian culture in a way that doesn’t feel like a theme park in paradise—because it isn’t. There are no rides here.

Instead, guests find snorkeling lagoons, a lazy river, and character meet-and-greets wrapped in lush, local design. Think of Aulani as Disney’s version of a cultural exchange, with Dole Whip on the side.

7 in Paris, France

Paris is home to Disneyland Paris, Disney’s flagship European destination.

This resort includes Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park, with themed hotels surrounding the parks and Disney Village dining area. Resorts here blend Disney storytelling with European style and are often booked through Walt Disney Travel Company holiday packages.
