Summer vacation is just around the corner. Once you've decided on your destination, whether it's a theme park or resort, the next thing to consider is where to stay and where to eat. If you're heading off on a trip, you'll want to be particular about your hotel and dining.

Celebrating its 60th anniversary with the special anniversary event, "Diamond Celebration," California Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, boasts two parks, three directly managed hotels within walking distance of the parks, and "Downtown Disney," home to restaurants and shops. While enjoying the parks, you can also enjoy the high-quality service and diverse dining options that only Disney can offer, making for a truly enjoyable "Disney vacation."

The Disneyland Hotel, the world's first directly managed Disney hotel, renovated in 2012, retains the original 1955 atmosphere throughout. The hotel is divided into three buildings: Fantasy Tower, Adventure Tower, and Frontier Tower. Enjoy artwork inspired by the park's attractions and Mickey Mouse decor throughout the guest rooms. Themed suites, such as the "Mickey Mouse Penthouse," are so popular that fans say they "want to stay there at least once in their lifetime." Also, at the character dining area, "Goofy's Kitchen," located on the first floor of the hotel, popular characters like Goofy and Pluto greet guests throughout the day, from breakfast to dinner. The AAA 4-star Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, boasting a unique and elegant architecture and a splendid California feel, is the only hotel with direct access to the park. Just past the guest gate, you'll find Disney's California Adventure Park. The hotel boasts a full range of luxurious services, including two heated pools, private cabanas, and the Mandara Spa, where guests can enjoy luxurious treatments, making it a popular choice among honeymooners. Enjoy high-quality food and wine at restaurants like Napa Rose, which boasts California cuisine prepared by a top chef and wines carefully selected by a sommelier, and Storyteller Cafe, which is popular for its buffet-style character breakfast featuring Chip and Dale.
If you're looking for a bright and relaxed California atmosphere, Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel is the place to go. Its stunning location offers a panoramic view of Disney California Adventure Park. Guests are greeted by staff clad in aloha shirts at the rooftop pool and bar, further enhancing the resort atmosphere. If you want to meet energetic Stitch or Mickey and Minnie in summer costumes, head to Disney PCH Grill, a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, for a character breakfast. Popular choices include pizza, tacos, and freshly made omelets prepared to order by a chef.
Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park also offer a wide variety of dining options, from high-end restaurants to unique themed restaurants. At Disney California Adventure Park, you can also enjoy Napa Valley wine at reasonable prices.

In addition, most restaurants and shops within the theme park offer a deferred payment system for guests staying at Disney-managed hotels, allowing them to charge the cost of their meals and shopping to their hotel room, and a service that allows merchandise purchased in the park to be delivered to your hotel free of charge (please refrain from using this service the day before returning home). These are just a few of the unique Disney services that allow you to enjoy the park at any time without having to carry anything.

Near the resort are one of California's largest shopping malls and unique beach areas, and you can even use a Disney Resort Hotel as your base for day trips. Why not make this summer a memorable one-of-a-kind trip at California Disneyland Resort?
