May reopening date announced for Grand Californian Hotel villas at Disneyland

The Villas at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is currently scheduled to reopen beginning May 2, 2021, the Disney Vacation Club announced today.

While the Disney Vacation Club Villas will open for DVC members and guests, the rest of the resort, as well as The Disneyland Hotel, Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel, Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, will remain closed for normal operations.

The Downtown Disney District is open with select shopping and dining experiences. 

Disneyland is still awaiting state and local government approvals to reopen the theme parks.

This reopening phase mirrors that of when the Walt Disney World Resort reopened. The Disney Vacation Club areas were the first to reopen and all the rest followed.

According to Disney, “As we continue to work towards reopening, promoting health and safety for our Guests and Cast Members is a top priority. Our gradual, phased approach to reopening considers the guidance of government and local health authorities, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in addition to the U.S. Travel Association and the Disney team of health professionals. Learn more about the reopening of The Villas at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.“
