The Villas at Disneyland Hotel are the newest addition to the iconic Disneyland Hotel complex, bringing a blend of Disney animation history, modern design, and home‑style comfort to the resort. Opened in 2023, this 12‑story tower marks the first major expansion to the hotel since the late 1970s.
What Makes the Villas Special?
The entire tower is designed as a love letter to Disney storytelling. Disney describes the Villas as a space where artwork from classic Walt Disney Animation films meets contemporary architecture, creating a resort experience that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Every room category incorporates visual motifs from films like Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, and The Princess and the Frog.
The Villas offer a range of accommodations tailored to different travel styles:
Duo Studios
- Compact, stylish spaces ideal for solo travelers or couples.

Amenities & Perks

- The classic monorail‑themed pool area
- Fitness center
- Early park entry
- On‑site dining, including the Palm Breeze Bar located within the Villas tower
Because the Villas are part of Disney Vacation Club, they’re built with longer stays in mind — meaning more storage, more comfort, and more flexibility for families or groups.
The Villas sit adjacent to the existing Disneyland Hotel towers, just a short walk from the Downtown Disney District and the Disneyland Monorail station. This makes them one of the most convenient lodging options for guests who want quick access to the parks without sacrificing comfort or quiet.
Who Are the Villas Best For?
- Families who want extra space and in‑room amenities like kitchens and laundry.
- Disney Vacation Club members looking for a West Coast home base.
- Fans of Disney animation who appreciate immersive theming.
- Travelers seeking a modern, upscale stay within walking distance of Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure.
Non-Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members can stay at the Villas at the Disneyland Hotel. The rooms are available for booking by the general public just like standard hotel rooms.
