Walt Disney World has updated their cancelation policy for 2025 hotel stays, which opens for bookings tomorrow, February 27.

2025 Hotel Cancelation Policy

Currently, guests can cancel room-only reservations up to five days before arrival without a penalty. Beginning in 2025, the cancelation window will be changed to up to eight days before arrival. If guests cancel less than eight days before arrival, they will forfeit their deposit, which is the cost of one night.

The cancelation policy for vacation packages that include hotel rooms and park tickets has not changed. Guests can cancel the entire package up to 30 days before their arrival date for a full refund. Guests can cancel from two to 29 days but will be charged a $200 fee. Canceling the day before or the day of the arrival will mean forfeiting the entire package cost.

Beginning in 2025, hotel guests will get admission to a water park included with their stay. Early entry and extended evening hours will also be available.
