Overview

• Walt Disney World says hotels typically keep electricity, water, and food available during storms, with trained cast members assisting guests.
• Recommendations single out Yacht Club, the Contemporary’s main building, Riviera, and Wilderness Lodge for their interior corridors and robust indoor dining.
• Many moderate and value resorts use exterior room entrances and separated buildings, which can leave guests confined to their rooms in severe weather.
• Parks generally close during hurricanes, and resorts pivot to indoor activities and entertainment in common areas to occupy sheltered guests.
• Food service often shifts to buffet setups in hotel conference centers, sometimes at an additional cost, making properties with ample indoor dining preferable.
