Walt Disney World offers are coming. There can be a ton of ‘Christmas in July’ gross sales beginning quickly, and a type of can be a limited-time low cost providing as much as 40% off resort accommodations at Walt Disney World. (Up to date July 7, 2025 with journey dates for the flash sale.)
The genesis of this all is Prime Day, which is basically Amazon’s Christmas in July sale. The retail behemoth created its personal money-saving vacation a number of years in the past to rival Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Amazon’s Prime Day will return July 8-11, 2025 and there are already ‘early entry’ offers within the lead-up to the sale.
Not desirous to miss out on the motion, different retailers are getting in on the “enjoyable” of Amazon Prime Day 2025, and subsequent week principally has turn into the beginning of Christmas (procuring season) in July. There’s additionally Walmart Offers Week, which begins July 8, 2025 at 12 am ET. There’s additionally Goal Circle Week, unique to Goal Circle members, beginning July 6, 2025. I’m positive Kohl’s can also be having a sale…as a result of when isn’t Kohl’s having a sale?!
The newest entry into the Christmas in July/Prime Day-counterprogramming is Priceline’s first-ever “Blissful Worth Days.” This can be a brand-new financial savings occasion designed to convey large offers to high journey locations.
To launch, Priceline is unveiling a can’t-miss provide for Walt Disney World followers and deal seekers alike: The Happiest Worth on Earth Sale – that includes as much as 40% off Walt Disney World Resort accommodations, obtainable completely from July 8-11, 2025.
For 4 days solely, vacationers can e-book their keep at The Most Magical Place on Earth at Priceline’s happiest costs of the season.
UPDATE: Priceline has shared with us the journey dates for this low cost can be August 1, 2025 by way of October 11, 2025.
We’d be remiss if we didn’t level out that there’s presently a large room low cost for this precise identical time-frame: Keep Longer & Save As much as 30% Off Walt Disney World Rooms. One other wave of Free Eating was additionally obtainable, however it was quietly pulled from the particular provides web page a number of weeks in the past (as has turn into an more and more widespread observe).
Clearly, this maxes out at 40% off whereas the present deal for those self same dates is simply 30% off. It’ll be attention-grabbing to see the specifics are of this new Priceline Happiest Worth on Earth Sale, and whether or not it’s actually one thing particular. It’s doable that the deal is that, however with one other 10% off throughout all tiers, which might be implausible.
It’s additionally doable it’s that deal…however with one resort or two at 40% off. Final 12 months, there was a DVC Mates & Household 40% Off Low cost for Saratoga Springs and Previous Key West, and it wasn’t precisely nice. A repeat of that’s in all probability the worst case situation. My guess is that we’ll land someplace in between, with this Priceline deal being about the identical for a lot of resorts–however with diminished availability–and wonderful for a handful of choices and choose journey dates. Guess we’ll discover out tomorrow morning!
Up to now, these are the one particulars we’ve got about “The Happiest Worth on Earth Sale” for Walt Disney World.
I nonetheless wished to place this in your radar as a result of it’s seemingly that we’re going to see one other flurry of Walt Disney World reductions within the subsequent two weeks. Not simply this, however particular provides immediately from Disney. We’ve began getting extra questions on offers for the rest of the 12 months, and it’s seemingly that they’re coming quickly.
Let’s cowl what to anticipate from the subsequent wave of reductions, together with however not restricted to the Priceline Happiest Worth on Earth Flash Sale, beginning with what’s presently obtainable…
In case you missed it, Walt Disney World launched its final ‘wave’ of reductions for 2025 holidays this summer time and fall again in late March and early April. That included particular provides for Annual Passholders, Floridians, Disney Visa cardholders, and most of the people. For each different particular provide that’s presently obtainable, see All Present Walt Disney World Reductions for 2025.
The perfect case situation is that this Priceline deal is much like Walt Disney World’s scorching summer time provide for rooms beginning at $99/evening or ~50% off–the largest room-only low cost in years. That low cost runs from now by way of July 31, 2025.
Individually, there are additionally the 3-Park Magic Low cost Walt Disney World Ticket and/or the 50% Off Youngsters Ticket Deal for Walt Disney World a greater possibility! Should you mix all of those offers, you could possibly get the most cost-effective Walt Disney World journey in July 2025 since no less than 2019.
Based mostly on historic precedent, the subsequent full spherical of 2025 reductions can be launched between mid-June and early July 2025. Clearly, late June is already within the rearview mirror and no promotions are going to drop within the lead-up to the vacation weekend, so we’re wanting on the second week of July 2025 on the absolute earliest.
This subsequent wave ought to embody extra particular provides for October by way of December 2025. The final spherical ended October 11, so it could stand to purpose that the subsequent set of particular provides will run October 12 by way of December 23, 2025.
As all the time, that’s plus or minus a number of days–there are holidays on each ends of that vary that muddy the waters a bit (that lengthy weekend in October may be very widespread for fall break, so I may see particular provides probably not beginning till October 14, 2025).
As for what can be launched, the one positive factor is a basic public room low cost (in all probability 30% off that might scale to 35% or 40% off with a ‘keep longer & save extra’ possibility). If that deal does scale, one other AP and FL resident take care of higher financial savings and extra dates can also be seemingly.
And as famous above, Free Eating was pulled prematurely–previously, that has occurred so it could possibly be re-released later as a “new” low cost (maybe with modified dates). I additionally wouldn’t be shocked by a wild card provide or two–probably the ~$100 eating card deal or a kid-focused low cost, comparable to children play & dine for 50% off.
October by way of December is usually excessive occupancy and Disney already indicated that forward-bookings had been sturdy, so the vacation season may see extra restrained financial savings. It’s truly nearer time period, in August and September, once we would possibly see the extra aggressive provides.
As prompt above, it’s fully doable that the Priceline “Happiest Worth on Earth Sale” is just a advertising wrapper on high of reductions that can be publicly obtainable from Walt Disney World. That every one we’ve gotten right here is the beginning date of July 8, 2025 for these. Nevertheless it wouldn’t make sense for these particular provides to be a flash sale that ends on July 11, 2025.
Possibly Priceline negotiated a “bonus” 5% off for a restricted time, and the particular provide will look very comparable to what’s already been launched for Annual Passholders and Florida residents for August by way of December 2025.
Possibly it’ll be just for August and September, and extra intently align with the aforementioned Disney+ deal that’s operating for roughly one month. Possibly it’s an unique deal by advantage of being launched first on Priceline, after which it’ll turn into obtainable for most of the people through DisneyWorld.com and journey brokers the next week.
Any of those are potentialities that can not be dominated out. My intestine intuition is that that is advertising for a basic public provide and never something actually particular. I’m simply skeptical that Walt Disney World would launch its greatest offers through a 3rd get together given the advantages of doing so immediately and focusing on them at numerous affinity teams.
There’s additionally the fact that this might seemingly anger lots of Licensed Disney Trip Planners. It couldn’t come at a worse time, provided that Disney wants them proper now (see Why Summer time is Sluggish at Walt Disney World). Not solely that, however Common is making critical inroads with journey brokers.
However stranger issues have occurred–and comparatively not too long ago. After I first heard the rumors of the Costco Disneyland Ticket Deal, I didn’t imagine it–sounded too good to be true. However it’s true. Disney has its causes for doing that, I’m positive, and the identical would possibly maintain true with superior financial savings on Walt Disney World resorts through Priceline. Nonetheless, I’m skeptical.
Usually, the one approach to rating deeper reductions than immediately can be through Priceline Categorical Offers on Walt Disney World Resorts. Websites like Priceline, Hotwire, and Resort Tonight provide substantial financial savings, however the tradeoff is that don’t know the identify of the lodge till you pay. It’s a blind reserving–however there are methods to reverse-engineer the lodge you’re reserving (as we clarify in that article).
The rationale for these blind bookings is in order that lodge chains, together with Walt Disney World, can dump unsold stock on the final minute whereas concealing to most of the people that they’re unloading rooms at such an affordable charge. That may tarnish their model, irritate company who paid considerably extra, or create an expectation amongst shoppers of future gross sales.
That’s not what the the “Happiest Worth on Earth Sale” is, although. That is going to be clear charges of as much as 40% off Walt Disney World resorts. We simply don’t know the specifics, whether or not it’s truly unique to Priceline, and many others.
Talking of Priceline Categorical Offers, we haven’t seen something widespread for on-site Disney accommodations since final September. (Third get together on-site accommodations proceed to make appearances with regularity.)
That is attention-grabbing as a result of the Disney+ deal for this summer time usually would’ve been precisely the kind of low cost to wind up on Priceline. A comparatively last-minute deep low cost on a restricted variety of resorts with financial savings superior to even Annual Passholder charges–that checks actually the entire containers of a blind reserving, minus the blind half.
I’ve been questioning whether or not Walt Disney World deemed that Disney+ deal a hit or failure. It was insanely widespread–there’s zero doubt about that. However did it seize new reservations, or largely lead to a bunch of current reservations modifying to make the most of cheaper costs? Based mostly on what we noticed, it was positively a mixture of the 2–so it comes right down to the distribution.
Many readers have requested whether or not we anticipate an analogous particular provide for August and September 2025. The simple reply is sure, provided that these are usually the 2 lowest-occupancy months of the 12 months. The true query, although, is how that deal could be achieved. Will or not it’s one other focused Disney+ deal that helps juice subscriber numbers whereas additionally providing substantial financial savings? Will or not it’s Disney quietly dumping stock on blind reserving websites? Will or not it’s one thing else?
It’s doable that we simply bought our reply–it’s Priceline’s Happiest Worth on Earth Flash Sale–and we simply don’t comprehend it but. I really don’t have a solution, however wished to nonetheless convey this to your consideration.
My intestine is that we’re going to see a number of offers roll out–and never –this month for journey dates from August by way of December 2025. I’d go additional and see that the present AP charges of 35% off are going to be surpassed (and never simply by this 40% Priceline sale, which could possibly be illusory).
I’d anticipate the most effective offers to be on the next resorts (asterisks point out Disney+ deal eligibility):
- All Star Resorts*
- Port Orleans Riverside Resort*
- Coronado Springs Resort
- Household Suites at Artwork of Animation Resort*
- Saratoga Springs Resort*
- Previous Key West Resort
- Animal Kingdom Lodge*
- Cabins at Fort Wilderness
- Grand Floridian Resort
- Yacht Membership Resort
This record relies on a combination of the aggressive Disney+ deal, plus earlier inclusion in aggressive reductions and Priceline Categorical Offers. Inclusion of resorts with conference facilities is dependent upon group bookings for fall and past–we’ve heard some rumblings that these have been delicate as Disney faces elevated competitors and companies look to chop prices.
Lastly, I wouldn’t anticipate the aggressive Disney+ deal to be surpassed. That was actually good and bought out quick; if Disney realized any lesson from that, it’s in all probability that they don’t must dangle 50%+ off. However we will see!
We’re in uncharted territory at this level, with Walt Disney World deviating fairly considerably from the 2019 playbook that they’d been utilizing.
