Disney CareerStart Program Cast Members live with participants from around the world in fully-furnished, gated apartment complexes near the Walt Disney World® Resort. Each apartment complex features 24-hour security and many of the comforts of home, including high-speed internet, cable television hook-up, a computer lab, a pool, laundry facilities, a wireless internet lounge, tennis and basketball courts, a workout facility, and more.

Each complex also has a front desk area with a helpful staff that assists Cast Members with basic housing needs, including maintenance issues, issuing loaner equipment including sporting goods vacuums and mops; selling postage stamps, and answering questions.

Here's a sneak peek of our housing complexes. Please keep in mind that the views below are samples of the rooms that are available. Remember the actual layout varies with each complex and apartment size.

Transportation

Transportation is provided for participants to and from work, as well as areas of local interest, such as the post office, grocery store and mall. In addition, many special trips are planned throughout the year to additional locations, such as the beach.

Housing Costs

Participants will never have to worry about making a rent payment or their utilities bill as all housing costs are deducted from the participants' paycheck for their convenience.

Costs vary from $80-105 per week based on the size of the apartment (one to-four bedroom apartments are available with two occupants in each bedroom).

Housing Events

In addition to the comfort and convenience our apartment complexes provide, Cast Members in the Disney CareerStart Program are invited to countless housing events, including pool parties, character breakfasts, talent shows, ice cream socials, movie nights, pizza parties, basketball tournaments, dances, and networking events, where they will make new friends, share new experiences, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
