I do not know about you, but Cinderella is my favorite Disney princess. When I walk through the streets of Disney’s Magic Kingdom, I imagine what it would be like to be her. If you love Cinderella as much as I do, you would probably enjoy a Cinderella-Inspired Disney vacation. If you find yourself in that position, read on to learn how to make your Cinderella dream a reality.
Step One: Book a stay at The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa
Nothing says royal Disney princess like the elegant Victorian-style Grand Floridian Resort. From the moment you step into the lobby, you will be blown away by the beautiful Victorian charm. The elegance and beauty of the resort will surely make you feel like Princess Cinderella. Our team at DVC Shop would love to make your dream of staying at the elegant Grand Floridian Resort and Spa a reality! We look forward to working with you.
Fun Tip: When staying at the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, take a walk around the property. When you do, you will find a breathtakingly beautiful wedding pavilion. And, if you are lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of an authentic horse-drawn carriage– just like the one Princess Cinderella rode in. How cool is that?
Step Two: Dine at Elegant Locations: Citricos
Citricos is open exclusively for dinner from 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM. All selections are divine, but I have included some top picks below. For your starter, grab the $22.00 Citrus-cured Hamachi. This salad has Passion Fruit Nuoc Cham, Compressed Star Fruit, Pasilla Oil, and Blood Orange-puffed Tapioca. It is mouth-watering. For an entree, go with the $52.00 Guava-barbecued Short Ribs. They have Aged Cheddar, Creamy Grits, Roasted Poblano, Curtido Slaw, and Brussels Sprouts. If you want to add an enhancement, then the $23.00 Truffle Macaroni & Cheese is divine. What’s not to love with house-made Gnocchetti, Summer Black Truffles, Sottocenere al Tartufo, and Tarragon?
Step Three: Dine at Cinderella’s Royal Table
Inside the stunningly beautiful Cinderella Castle inside of Disney’s Magic Kingdom Park, you will find Cinderella’s Royal Table. Cinderella’s Royal Table is a fairytale dining adventure that serves Breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. You can eat delicious food outside the iconic castle while meeting Princess Cinderella and her fellow Disney Princess friends. Breakfast is $62.00 for adults and $42.00 for children. During Breakfast, you will receive pastries, an entree, and a beverage. For your entree, I recommend the Caramel Apple-stuffed French Toast. It is a French Toast stuffed with Sweet Cream Cheese and Spiced Apples drizzled with Caramel Sauce and served with Bacon. It is simply delicious.
You will receive an appetizer, entree, and dessert for Lunch and Dinner. I recommend the Soup of the Day for your appetizer. For your entree, I recommend the Marinated Grilled Chicken. It has Wild Mushroom, Parmesan Risotto, Roasted Fennel, and Black Truffle Butter. For the dessert, choose the Coffee Pot de Crème. This dessert is Coffee-infused Coconut ‘Custard,’ Passion Fruit Gelée, and Crumbled Chocolate-Espresso Beans. Yummy!
Step Four: Visit Magic Kingdom Park
Without visiting the iconic park, one can not go to Walt Disney World on a Cinderella-Inspired vacation. There are castles, princesses, and sweet treats galore. Oh, and there are also some pretty epic attractions, too. What more could a princess want?!
No matter how you decide to spend your time, we hope you enjoy your trip. The memories that you make will last a lifetime. So, make the reservations and pack those bags! Magical memories are waiting!
