Woohoo! March 8-12; hotel TBD hoping some better room rates come up after the conference hotel blocks are released!

 

[Not Your Mom]

Thanks for starting this thread cinabc!

March 10-17 to celebrate my twins and my birthdays. Rebooked from March 2020.
Staying at the Disneyland Hotel for the first time.

 

[HollyMD]

March 12-17, The Anaheim Hotel

 

[BandMom1]

Yay! Thanks for starting this thread!

March 17 - 19
Currently booked at Best Western Inn & Mini Suites but may switch to the Westin.
Super excited to be dining at 21 Royal for the first time!

 

[rynorex]

21st - 26th at Grand Cali can't freakin wait!

Holding out all hope, crossing my fingers and toes for WOC and Fantasmic

 

[DharmaLou]

March 4-7 staying at HoJo

 

[DharmaLou]

Mini Gay Days is the 5th FYI

 

[nicolispicoli]

Finally coming back 3/13-3/16 after 3.5 years! So excited as so much as changed since Oct 2018. I thought I was hitting a sweet spot before spring break but it turns out that was not true, lol. Between villains night, food/wine and springs breaks I didn’t except for areas nearby, it’s going to be busier than I hoped. But, there’s never been a bad day at Disney, especially after that long, so I’ll be ready

 

[pokee99]

Yay! March visits!

My daughter and I are abandoning the boys at home in Canada to do a girls trip March 16-19, staying at the Fairfield by Marriott. It's been 5 years since our last visit, and we we forced to cancel our 2020 trip 2 days before Disneyland closed - so we're extremely eager to get our Disney fix!

 

[Aladora]

Yay! We are going March 20-25, staying at VGC to celebrate my 50th birthday! It is going to be me, DH, DS, and my sister! This will be her first Disneyland trip and I am beyond excited!

We debated back and forth about whether or not we were going to cancel but we finally decided to just do it. Unfortunately because we waited until a week and a half ago to make the final call, dining reservations have been hard to come by. We really wanted to do the chef’s counter at Napa Rose but it is fully booked while we are there. Olga’s is also booked but I am still holding out hope for either a last minute cancellation or we might luck out and get a walk up table.

Either way, I am just so happy that we are going!

 

[Andi4]

March 10th-13th staying at the Grand Californian. We are so excited for Villians night and the Food & Wine Festival! Also woke up at 3am to snag Blue Bayou, will be our first time eating there!

 

[AC7179]

March 7-11 at GCH.

We have always stayed at PPH and loved it, but so excited to try something new. We will attend both Villains nights at DCA!

 

[Belia]

Hi! We'll be staying March 26 - April 2. Was supposed to be Candy Cane Inn but that got cancelled so switched to the HOJO.

No one in the family has ever been to DL, and I'm the only one who's been to LA (and that was when I was 10!) DH and I have 2 boys- age 9 & 13. Can't wait! But the (comparative) lack of planning vs. WDW is freaking me out a little!

 

[staceylacey1]

Thank you for starting this thread!

So excited for March, we will be there 3/19-3/22 staying at The Anaheim Hotel. I’m really hoping Fantasmic comes back in March!

 

[AngPNW]

3/8 - 3/12, staying at PPH and attending Villains 3/10

 

[Wilcojoe]

March 6-9th at Disneyland Hotel. Our (myself, wife and two boys ages 13 and 10) first time back since 2016.

 

[katherine52478]

March 1-5! WDW vets but we’ve been to Disneyland once in 2015. Can’t wait!

ooh, and we are staying at the Disneyland Hotel for the first time! We are ready with our Trader Sam’s reservations! Uh-oa!

 

[abbeyroad6282]

My daughter and I will be in Anaheim, staying at the Marriott, March 4-6. We are only doing a park day on 3/5 and will be doing Disneyland only!

 

[Diana ZP]

Maybe...and there is a reason for it...March 3rd-5th, possibly at Marriott Suites or Maingate? The reason for the maybe is the friend I am planning on going with just informed me she doesn't like rides and wants to look around and shop. I like the rides, most anyway! So now I am in two minds whether or not to spend the money and go or go to San Diego or something instead??? AARRGGHHH this has been a long nasty year and we all need a good Disney fix!
