Why such a price increase?

I've been pricing up a holiday at various hotels for Sept 2021, and had just came to accept the price was what it was.

I recently found an email I had from Feb 2017, for a stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge for 2 weeks the price was £1600 per person.
Yet the same for Sept 2021 is coming out at £2600 per person.
An increase of £1k per person over the three years.

Ok, so it could be inflation and exchange rate, yet back in Feb 2017 the price to stay at the Sonesta ES Suites was £1500, and prices for next year for the Sonesta is only £1800 per person. Only a £300 increase in three years.

With prices very similar in 2017, how can Disney charge such a price increase, yet others seem to be more reasonable?

Perhaps it's due to the Sept 2017 prices being checked in Feb 2017, rather than the 18 months ahead for the 2021 quote.
Do prices come down at all the closer it gets?
