On this adventure, they will be kid-free and looking to enjoy things like the Food and Wine Festival, the new GEO-82 Lounge, their old favorite Nomad Lounge, and of course making their way into all four parks. This will be the couple’s first time staying at Coronado Springs Resort, and more specifically, their first time staying at Gran Destino Tower.
