The only good thing with disney resort is that it has magic hours. and there is free parking if you stay in disney resort. however if you stay in disney resort, you probably want to take their shuttle. Magic Express gives your free transportation from and to the airport Next time I probably want to rent a car and stay outside, to have more flexibility. I think for lunch you have to eat inside the park, since it'll be a waste of time to eat outside. breakfast or dinner could eat outside.
