I love how Sam sounds full British but looks like a 90s Florida theme park dad. He’s the best! Love seeing you two together ❤

[@SuperEnthused]

Haha I love that too! It’s so cute!

There's nothing like a resort day away from the parks, and to be staying at the Contemporary nonetheless and with a theme park view is beyond magical. Sam is a sweetheart. Thanks for taking us along.

[@johnzywko5885]

You’ve added a new element to your videos…" the surprise "..keep it going, for all of us. We love going along and not knowing what you or Sam are springing on each other and us.loved it,thanks

[@ChinaDollTravels]

Seeing the Christmas 🎅 🎄 fireworks 💥 from the room is the best

[@Curious_Skeptic]

Soon as I find me a cute little blonde to share disney fun with, this will be one of the first places we stay ! What a beautiful view!

[@angelafoutz]

Sam, you are an amazing man for Jackie! I am in the process of trying to make reservations at the Comtemporary Resort. We have been informed that my husband only has a few months to live. His last wish is to stay there. When he saw this blog, it made him cry, and he told me that Jackie gave him his last wish. We can't afford a trip at this time. So Jackie and Sam, thank you both so much!!!

[@thomaspaccione8237]

I am a big fan of the Contemporary, been a few years since I stayed there, but there is nothing quite like it.

[@shannonharper4441]

What a lovely surprise!! Sam is a keeper and he did an amazing job with your early Christmas present!! You definitely deserve it! Enjoy ❤

[@judi9723]

We always stay at the Contemporary Atrium Level. Going next summer again!

[@Sunny-xc9kv]

My husband and I stayed here in June for our 20th wedding anniversary trip. It was so magical!! Walking home after magic kingdom was the beeeeest!!!

[@trinamiller100]

That is awesome how Sam surprised you with a stay at the Disney’s Contemporary Resort as an early Christmas gift.

[@lesliegallagher2682]

Love that scene where the Monorail, bus, and train were all in the shot. So cool. I haven't stayed at Contemporary since I was a small child, but we love to visit. California Grill is so amazing.

[@margaretdow8723]

He's a keeper that Sam. This was really nice of both of you to share your surprise with us. Thank you

[@yunder.]

I'm so glad you found Sam. He respects and treats you like I do my wife. :)

[@AlanAvis]

Goodness so sweet and beautiful.

[@dzne4eva2]

You guys are so sweet together 💕

[@thecnnrfamily1417]

You two are the best couple and my favorite on KZbin! The realest, most adorable. We love every one of your videos, this is a SUPERENTHUSED household.

[@mdf3530]

35:44 I purchased the “Hey Disney” skill for my Alexa devices. When Sam said that, the Echo Dot in my bathroom picked it up 😂. I wish I could have it play the Space Mountain queue music when I go to bed. That would be so relaxing.

[@kimberlyschleicher5292]

I just love the two of you

[@FKNLAMBSAUCE]

Jackie, the hot coco and the chocolate twist at the contemporary gingerbread display are phenomenal!

[@chrishutchinson2297]

You two are one of my favorite couples. So much ❤️ love and respect. What a thoughtful and wonderful gift. One that you both could enjoy.

[@carlasmith4777]

So romantic ❤ you both will have this amazing memory forever 🎇

[@katesommerville7217]

What a guy ❤ lovely surprise 😊

[@ShareaDreamComeTrue]

I’m super enthused about your monorail mirror and lamp! I love the pictures in Steakhouse 71.

[@fauguy23]

That was such a wonderful surprise that Sam did. Only way to up it for next year could be a resort view from the Grand Floridian, or get the Yosemite suite (Presidential suite) at the Wilderness Lodge as they decorated it for Christmas, even with a tree.

[@jamesbozeman5811]

I really enjoy watching you and Sam having fun. Especially doing things I can't because it is not wheelchair compatible. You are having fun for me. Loved the Dr. Who mention.

[@jayneestrycker7453]

Wow Jackie! You hit the jackpot by marrying Sam👍 Such a thoughtful gesture to book such a fun stay in a lovely resort😊⛄🎄🎅😊

This is amazing! Staying in these rooms is on our bucket list. Since I was a kid, I’ve been fascinated by the monorail going thru the hotel. One day!😊

[@christinenapoli5106]

Super-nice Christmas surprise from Sam. You had a great location for your room. That Sam must have connections! Enjoy!!!

[@Sportyfamilia]

Omg I loved this 🫶🏼 great job surprising Jackie Sam! Y’all are amazing together 🥰 nothing better when hubby thinks of a great suprise 😍

[@monicahaller3330]

Wow, I really appreciate this video. I’ve stayed in Bay Lake Tower, but I’ve never stayed in the contemporary before. I’ve always wondered about those rooms. I would just probably hang out in front of my door and people watch everybody in the lobby. I really need to go to steakhouse 71 next time I’m there. I had a reservation last time, but I was so tired that I ended up canceling. I’m really kicking myself for that… I’m so glad you enjoyed your surprise, those are the best kind of surprises. Good job, Sam!

[@cindyandkurt]

What a wonderful thing for Sam to do!!!! He's a keeper!!❤❤

[@nataliewingate6475]

[@RollinwiththeNolans]

This looks like such a nice stay for your guys! Great job Sam!

[@timandkt]

This is the single cutest and most joy-filled video on the internet 🥹 Sam’s surprise was truly wonderful. And to think you said that he wasn’t good at keeping secrets, he faked you out multiple times! The theming in the renovated rooms is immaculate. The monorail on the mirror 🤩 I didn’t realize that you’d be able to see the WDW Railroad from the theme park view balcony! So cool. Not even the Florida rain could ruin such a magnificent pool day. Dinner at Steakhouse 71 looked delicious, too. 25:00 Sam!? Dancing!? 👀 It’s a Christmas miracle! Haha Loved seeing the fireworks and the electrical water pageant from your balcony. 10th/14th Doctor is the best Doctor - I said what I said 😁💙 Merry Christmas, you two!

[@annadekraker1358]

Loved this surprise video Jackie!! It’s so fun!! I love how excited you were getting and asking if this was it or not!! The contemporary resort is a beautiful hotel!! That was a very special surprise present for you!! So sweet of Sam to do that for you!!so glad you guys had a great time and that you got a great view of the fireworks!! Love the gingerbread displays!! It looks so beautiful, with it all decorated 😊❤️😊❤️❤️🥰🥰

I like on the balcony how you have a chocolate cookie and snacks - like the cookie is the main course. The time lapse was great. Bucket list since 1971 to stay there - maybe someday, but this was a great film.

[@edvaira6891]

Your husband is a very nice guy!!..The one time I tried something similar was MUCH harder to keep secret as long as you did….back in 1998, right after Bellagio opened for the first time in Vegas, I managed to convince her we were going to Disneyland for a day trip and managed to hide the suitcase in the trunk, so she had no clue…until we passed by the highway that connects the I-15 to Anaheim and kept on going…and only then did I have to fess up! She (as well as out then 5-year old son) was GOBSMACKED! And we had a Great time!

[@SuperEnthused]

How fun is that!!! What a wonderful memory.
