Summer 2026: Explore Disney & Universal with a Split Stay Adventure
If you’re planning your Orlando holiday for summer 2026, you’ll want to make sure you get the best of both Disney and Universal. With Charter Travel’s expert planning, you can enjoy a Disney and Universal split stay in summer 2026 that takes you right into the heart of the world’s most famous theme parks – and keeps you close to the action with amazing hotel stays at a Disney Value Resort and Universal’s Terra Luna.
Starting with Disney Magic
Your adventure will begin at Walt Disney World, where four incredible theme parks are waiting for you. In summer 2026, you’ll be exploring the classic Magic Kingdom – think Cinderella Castle, Space Mountain, and all your favourite Disney characters – before heading to EPCOT, where new attractions and world-class dining will wow the whole family. Don’t forget Disney’s Animal Kingdom, home to Pandora – The World of Avatar, and Hollywood Studios, where Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Toy Story Land will bring your favourite movies to life.
After long days in the parks, you’ll retreat to a Disney Value Resort. These hotels are perfect for families who want to keep the magic going while enjoying budget-friendly comfort. The themed décor, giant Disney icons, and convenient Disney transportation make it easy to relax before another day of excitement.
Switching Over to Universal Orlando
Once you’ve had your Disney fix, it’s time to take your holiday up a notch with a stay at Universal’s Terra Luna Resort. From here, you’ll be perfectly placed to explore everything Universal has to offer – and in summer 2026, that will include the brand-new Epic Universe theme park.
Epic Universe is set to change the Orlando holiday game, with immersive lands such as Super Nintendo World, a new Wizarding World of Harry Potter area, and cutting-edge attractions that will wow even the biggest theme park fans. Add to that the thrill rides of Islands of Adventure, the movie magic of Universal Studios Florida, and the tropical fun of Volcano Bay, and your Universal stay will be jam-packed with adventure.
Guests staying at Terra Luna will also enjoy Early Park Admission, so you’ll be among the first to step into these new worlds each day. After a long day of rollercoasters, shows, and water rides, you’ll head back to Terra Luna’s modern, stylish rooms to recharge.
Why a Split Stay is Perfect in 2026
A Disney and Universal split stay gives you the freedom to experience it all. Instead of choosing between Disney’s magic or Universal’s thrills, you’ll enjoy both – without wasting time on long commutes between parks. Staying on-site at Disney first, then at Universal’s Terra Luna, will mean you’re always close to the action, maximising your park time and minimising stress.
Charter Travel will arrange everything, from your park tickets to your resort transfers, so you can focus on making memories that will last a lifetime.
Final Thoughts
In summer 2026, Orlando will be more exciting than ever – especially with the opening of Universal’s Epic Universe. A split stay holiday with Charter Travel, combining Disney Value Resorts and Universal’s Terra Luna Resort, is the perfect way to experience the best of both worlds. With Disney magic, Universal thrills, and two great hotels, your family will have the holiday of a lifetime.
