Do beach club prices rise when free dining comes out ?
Hello we allways book when free dining is released to take advantage of that and I am just roughly costing up 2018 .
Obviously this is hard at the moment as on disneys site the prices are there for the rooms and tickets but no free dining so I'm unsure if they actually will increase prices when free dining released ? Does anyone have past experience of this please? It would be interesting to know . And has anyone booked BC or YC for this August for around 12 nights and get the free dining? If so do you mind sharing what you paid please ? Thank you

No, they don't normally rise. If I remember rightly, they actually fell a bit last year and definitely did in 2016. Foe example, 7 nights in May half term 2016 was £2335 before free dining was released and £2038 once free dining was released. Unfortunately my 2017 spreadsheet got corrupted so I don't have those prices
What does usually happen though is that the standard rooms sell out quickly leaving only the more expensive category rooms available, so you need to be quick if hat's definitely where you want to stay.

We booked our holiday on 21/4/16 the day of free dining was released for 16 nights in May 2017 at the Beach Club, pool view, park tickets, no flights for 4ad and 1ch for £7400 ish. I did check prices again when free dining offers had finish and the cost of the holiday had increased.
Just had a quick look today and there is only club level room available to book for our dates in May. Good luck with the planning |

My Wife and I also booked for May 2017 (5th-16th) at Beach Club, We booked through Thomson but waited for the Free Dining to come out, I think it was June or July last year I cant really remember. For 11 nights we paid £7500 for 3 of us incl Free Dining, Flights with extra leg room, Lagoon View Room, 14 Day Disney Tickets & Premium SUV hire Incl Gold insurance.

We're going in August this year. With Free DDP it cost us £2793 for 7 days in a pool/lagoon view room (there were no garden view ones left when I eventually booked but thin they were @ £400 cheaper for the week. So @£400 per night
This price doesn't include the cost of the tickets you have to buy as part of the package. |

Free dining is always rack rate (highest room cost) with the exception of room discounts as well sometimes at SS and OKW.

When I booked Yacht Club for July the price dropped when free dining came out. I had been keeping an eye on the prices.

Disney does apply seasonal pricing to their room rack rate so it does change for their different 'seasons'.

Prices for some resorts drop when free dining is released although from my figures it looks like POR/FQ and WL increased slightly.
