"The Impatient Club" - Nov/Dec 2025 Resort Booking Watch Party - Booking Now Available!

Woo-hoo!!! I booked for the second week of December at Wilderness. (omg the sticker shock, going to freak out a bit and then go into denial) I booked for a couple days longer than we'll actually go so I can change it a bit as we get close. Booked 12/6-12/14. REPORT BACK, FRIENDS!
Can we keep the thread going as a planning and prep thread? I've had fun with y'all in our collective impatience.
I'm so jealous! That's where we stayed last year. We're going for All Star Music family suite for the extra room and my brother in-law is traveling with us. If he wasn't coming I would definitely be reserving Wilderness Lodge. We are going 11-29 to 12-7-25. 😄
 

Saw what I needed to see and decisions are made. We will be renting DVC points for the bulk of our stay and bookending with Swan/ Dolphin. Prices for deluxe otherwise have gotten out of hand. We were considering the POP for our bookend days but its gotten out of control. The Swan/ Dolphin is only $30 more with my teacher rate.
 
I want to book - but wow the prices! I know you only need to pay a deposit. Can anyone explain to me how I would add a discount to my reservation later in the year? TY!

You can always call Disney when a discount becomes available for your dates and, if they still have rooms available, they will apply the discount to your package.

Yep. The pricing is pushing it. And even with a possible discount, they are still higher than what they should be.
 
And remember that these rack rates that are just now being released for Nov/Dec 2025, will quietly rise in the next year. They are not locked in.
 
It's super easy to do that in your MyDisney app. Where you go to make payments there will be an option to "check for discounts", something along those lines and it will automatically apply any promos and recalculate your amount.
 
Booking Dec 19-22... debating Wilderness Lodge, Pop, or maybe Beach Club. Any input? We were leaning Wilderness Lodge but there is construction ongoing so we added BC into the mix. I assume by Dec 2025 it should be mostly wrapped up? We really wanted to stay at a deluxe for the theming. (I know we can visit them, but since it's a short stay we likely won't be doing a lot of resort hopping). We will likely focus on MK and HS so WL and BC both have strengths there for travel.

We've stayed at Poly, Pop, and PO:FQ before for various lengths of time.
 
Doing a split stay - BC & CR - early December. The price about made me choke; once discounts come out may do some switching. DH hasn’t had a vacation in years so I’d like him to really enjoy his stay but those rack rates aren’t very ✨magical✨!

Just booked split stay in November for CR Garden Wing & BC ... military salute discount is already out for 2025 which is great, prior years were going into November before they were released.

Always a good feeling to have things booked, thanks to everyone in this thread for keeping an eye out for it opening up!

Did you get the military discount at the resorts? Any good this year?
