    The Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa

    Disneyland Resort · Opened 2009 · California Arts and Crafts (Craftsman) lodge

    The DVC villas fill a wing of Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, a Craftsman-style lodge that sits beside Disney California Adventure and has its own hotel gate into that park. Disneyland Park and Downtown Disney are a short walk away, so midday breaks back at the room are easy. A strong pick for families who want to stay as close to the Disneyland Resort parks as possible, in a calm, forest-lodge setting.
