Disney publishes a nightly rate for every resort and changes it week by week. Across a full year the pattern is stark: the same room costs 51% more in December than in August. Over five nights that is $1,215 of difference for an identical trip, decided only by which week you pick.

What these figures are
Every figure is Disney’s own average price per night for a four-night midweek stay, two adults, standard room, room only, before tax, as published on Disney’s own site in September 2026. Nothing here is estimated or modeled. Every Disney World resort is here except the Cabins at Fort Wilderness, which Disney does not price online. Rates move, so treat this as a snapshot and confirm the price with Disney before you book.
The headline numbers on their own, each with its own link for citing, are on the Disney World price statistics page.
This table says what each month costs. For what to do about it, when Disney World is cheapest prices every check-in week and shows what moving a trip three weeks is worth.
