Disney Vero Beach Resort Recap

Sharing is caring!

We've been back for a week from our vacation to Disney's Vero Beach Resort, but I've been so busy with the laundry, unpacking, and getting Jonah back to our normal routine that I haven't posted about it. We had a wonderful time! There were no mishaps (unlike the previous vacation) and we truly felt relaxed. We went with my dad, stepmom, and little brothers. Jonah had a great time with everyone, especially his Uncle "Coe", his way of saying "Joe".

Disney really knows how to make you feel at home in their vacation resorts. Everyone is so friendly and they obviously know how to make it a "magical" place with all the little details. I kept telling Ray that I felt like I was on a cruise, without the sea-sickness. We had a towel animal on our bed when we got there and they had a list of daily activities available to guests. They had everyone from dodgeball games to campfire sing-a-longs! It was fun! I loved all of the little touches of Mickey that I found around the resort. I also loved that it wasn't overdone Mickey decor...it made it fun to hunt for it!

We ate breakfast with the characters one morning! I was excited, but a little nervous too--I didn't really know how Jonah would react. He's never seen a large character like that so I had no idea what would happen. It was a relief when he got very excited! He was hilarious to watch. He loved Donald Duck...and I think the person playing Donald was pretty taken with Jonah too. Donald hung out with us for a lot longer than others. Jonah was laughing and talking to Donald. He gave kisses and hugs and even yelled across the restaurant for Donald to come back! It was a hoot!

The pool and kiddie play area were fantastic! We spent most of our time there, especially since Jonah hates the sand so much. There was a pirate ship play area with fountains and a mini water slide. There was a big water slide for big kids and adults and Jonah got a kick out of watching mommy and daddy come down the slide.

Jonah playing on the luggage cart. Every time he saw one he climbed on and said "Ride!"

It was a wonderful vacation. We are so thankful we got to go. Thank you again, PawPaw & GaGa! We can't wait until next year when we go see the mouse!
