#cinderellasuite

I have a Disney wish list, like most Disney lovers do, I'm sure.  If I had unlimited resources, there are a lot of things I would do to take care of family and friends but these are my Disney wishes -you know, my wishes come true!

First, I would probably purchase a home at Golden Oak, which is actually a community on Walt Disney World property. Starting at 2 million dollars, there is value there, as visiting family and friends would always have a place to stay.  There are special events and experiences offered as well as that world class Disney service all year round!  I'm guessing that this might actually be the happiest place on Earth! 

The next thing on my list would probably be to get into Club 33 -Disney's exclusive VIP lounge that began at Disneyland with an address of 33 Royal Street in New Orleans Square.  Now found at Walt Disney World and under different names, this is a great place for celebrities like Johnny Depp and Tom Hanks to enjoy the parks without the intrusion of the media.

Although you don't have to be celebrity; you do have to be able to pay the purported $33, 000 initiation fee and annual membership dues of $15,000 and you have to be super patient, as there is about a decade-long waiting list.  For that price, members are provided premier passport for the member, spouse and children under age 26 as well as 50 one day park hopper tickets, five VIP guided tours, access to private concierge services and a number of FastPass+ reservations, the number of which has not been disclosed.  If you read my previous post about Walt Disney World Tours, you know that there are a few of those on my bucket list!  While Club 33 entrances are a little bit hidden, I've heard that the one in the Magic Kingdom is just to the right of your entrance into Adventureland, Epcot's lounge is in the former Chase Visa lounge at American Adventure.  I've also been told that what used to be the Catwalk Lounge at the Brown Derby in Hollywood Studios is now their Club 33 location.  I remember visiting the Catwalk and thinking what a nice location is was to get away from the crowds, was sorry to see that one go.  Finally, Harambe House at the Animal Kingdom hosts Club 33 members. While I'm waiting for my invitation to Club 33 to be accepted, I would definitely try to win one of those stays in the Cinderella Suite at the Magic Kingdom.  That's one that money can't buy, unless you win it in an auction, I've been told.  During the Year of a Million Dreams back in 2006, guests at Walt Disney World were sometimes surprised with a stay there, and I've wanted to do that ever since.  What a great opportunity to spend a night inside the place where dreams come true!
