Overview
- Disney posted an official refurbishment notice Wednesday that locks the project window from mid‑June 2027 through October 2028.
- The work is described as a hard‑goods refresh, meaning crews will replace furniture and fixtures rather than perform only cosmetic updates.
- Renovations will move through the resort one themed wing at a time across its four areas: Finding Nemo, Cars, The Lion King, and The Little Mermaid.
- Guests can book stays while work proceeds but Disney warns of daytime maintenance noise and temporary altered walking routes around active work zones.
- Disney has not published the sequence of phases or released public concept art after showing media a single preview earlier this year, leaving uncertainty about how the resort’s distinctive theming will be treated.
