We’re back to explore everything new at the Disney resorts!
We have a TON of new food and merchandise finds to share with you! Are you ready??
Polynesian Village Resort Food Updates
Pineapple Lanai
We can’t miss an opportunity to visit Pineapple Lanai for a Dole Whip, and found some fun flavors on the menu!
We previously reported on this Orange and Raspberry Dole Whip combo, and we loved the flavors and colors!
Is it an Orangeberry? Is it a Rasprange? Either way, it’s delicious!
Be sure to ask which flavors you can get swirled on your visit!
The Dole Whip Combo We Never Knew We Needed in Disney World
Captain Cook’s
We snagged the Pulled Pork Nachos from Captain Cook’s to pair with our swirled Dole Whip. These have pulled pork, cheese, spicy mayonnaise, pico de gallo, and a fresh pineapple salsa. It was loaded with toppings!
For the price of $9.49, it’s a pretty big portion! A win!
These are one of our favorite Polynesian snacks (or meals).
Check out other interesting Dole Whip combos we’ve found here!
Polynesian Village Resort Merchandise Updates
Boutiki
At the Boutiki merch shop, we found two new Polynesian Village tees! One features the resorts tiki mascot…
…and the other features our favorite blue troublemaker, Stitch! We love his whole vibe with the coconut drink and lei.
Kids can also show off their Stitch love too in this new tee!
Boutiki is currently doing a 30% sale on select name-brand merchandise.
And they are getting into the Easter spirit with these customized Easter baskets!
Each basket can be filled with the goodies of your choice!
You can also purchase a pre-made basket as well.
Here’s where else to find custom Easter baskets!
Moana Mercantile
Easter baskets were also for sale at Moana Mercantile!
You can purchase a ready-made basket through April 4th.
We also found two new tees, featuring characters from Moana!
And that’s everything from Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort!
Take a look at the new Polynesian theme here!
Grand Floridian Merchandise Updates
Basin
Next door at the Grand Floridian, we popped into Basin…
…where we found some new spring soaps!
If you’re feeling sweet you can choose between the Florida Orange and Fresh Pineapple, or if you’re wanting something more natural you can choose between Daisy and Butterfly (what exactly does a butterfly smell like? Apparently it’s flowers!)
M. Mouse Mercantile and Sandy Cove
The Grand Floridian is in the Easter Basket game too!
You can find basket options at both the M. Mouse Mercantile and the Sandy Cove shop. These would be perfect for a family game night!
And that’s everything from Disney’s Grand Floridian!
We have all the details on the Easter Egg display at the Grand Floridian here!
Contemporary Resort Food Updates
Bayview Gifts
Across the lake at the Contemporary, we found a ton of Easter treats in the bakery case at Bayview Gifts!
They had two springtime caramel apples, decorated like the Easter bunny and Easter eggs!
Plus, they had bunny butts!! Our love of the cute bunny booties keeps getting stronger. These are rice krispie treats with bunny feet and tails.
We just think the fluffy tail is too cute!
Check out all of the other Easter treats here!
Contemporary Resort Merchandise Updates
Bayview Gifts
Bayview Gifts also had Easter baskets to go along with their treats!
We also spotted a comfy Contemporary robe, embroidered with the resort’s logo!
We’ve been seeing lots of resort robes recently!
Check out another Disney World resort robe
Fantasia
In the Fantasia shop, we found two seasonal MagicBands! The first has Minnie showing off her Mother’s Day love…
…and the sidekicks are the stars on this Dooney & Burke MagicBand!
And that’s everything at Disney’s Contemporary resort!
Check out these limited edition magic bands we found online here!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Updates
The Resort
The weather was a little dreary during our visit to Animal Kingdom Lodge, and because of that the pool was completely empty!
The Savanna at both Kidani Village and Jambo House were pretty empty as well.
The animals must have not been digging the weather either!

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Merchandise Updates
Johari Treasures
You can also purchase an Easter basket at Johari Treasures in Kidani Village! At this location, you can choose between a basket or a tote!
And that’s everything from Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge!

Saratoga Springs Food Updates
Artist’s Palette
At Artist’s Palette, we let you all know that we found the cutest Easter Spring Cake!
The evenness on the layers is amazing! It’s almost too pretty to eat (but only almost!).
We also tried the new plant-based Asian Noodle Soup, made with rice noodles, napa cabbage, onions, mushrooms, carrots, and jalapenos swimming in a miso pho broth.
The plant-based offerings are getting more and more interesting, and this is a super flavorful vegetarian option!
That’s all from Disney’s Saratoga Springs!
Check out more Easter goodies in Disney Springs here!
Old Key West Food Updates
Good’s Food To Go
We previously reported on this adorable lemon and strawberry spring cupcake from Good’s Food to Go at Old Key West!
The inside of this cupcake is AMAZING. It’s filled with strawberry compote, and the colors are so vibrant!
Don’t miss the opportunity to get this Instagram-worthy cupcake, so go before April 5th!

Old Key West Merchandise Updates
Conch Flats General Store
We found another cozy robe, this time from Old Key West!
Similar to the Contemporary one, it’s embroidered with the resort logo.
Whew, that’s everything! We’ll continue to keep up with the latest updates at the Disney World resorts, and we’ll bring you a summary like this at the end of each week! Keep checking back for more updates from the Disney Resorts.
