Disney World is HOT nearly every day of summer, but this week has been something else.

Stanley IceFlow
Thanks to a heat wave, temperatures have been sitting in the upper 90s, while the real feel has brought the heat of the days to feel closer to 110 degrees Fahrenheit some days. Staying hydrated in Disney World is always important, but with heat as intense as this, it becomes essential that the water you’re drinking is also cold, if at all possible. Very few people are tempted to drink warm water, especially enough to keep them safely hydrated, but cold water is a different story. We’ve tested out LOTS of water bottles in the parks, trying to find the best one, and there’s ONE that clearly came out, even in 100° heat.

Stanley IceFlow
The water bottle that came out on top, though our second choice was just barely behind it, is none other than the Stanley IceFlow. What we love most about this bottle, other than the fact that it’s so insulated it REALLY does live up to its name and keeps your ice cold, is that it’s the perfect size for a Disney day. It’s big enough to get through a stretch of the afternoon without needing to refill every hour, but not so bulky that it takes up too much space in your bag.

We also really can’t get enough of how easily the lid comes apart for cleaning, which is a BIG deal. Let’s be real — Disney water is not the nicest out there, and you’ll want to thoroughly clean your bottle after the trip, and potentially even scrub it every few days on a longer trip. The handle also folds flat on both sides, so it doesn’t create an awkward lump against your hip or catch on the inside of your bag, which we love. If you’re looking for a one-stop shop, this IS the bottle for you.

However, we also want to mention our second choice, which is also fantastic for a park day — the Owala! We love that these have a push-to-open lid with a second locking layer so it won’t leak if it accidentally tips over or gets jostled around. It also does a great job of keeping your drink cold, including keeping your ice intact, and yet the outside doesn’t sweat, which means no damp bag liner and no slippery grip when you pull it out mid-walk (my biggest pet peeve ever).

The FreeSip design also means you can either sip through the straw upright or tilt it back and drink from the wide-mouth opening, and that versatility is important. The only reason the IceFlow beat this one is that the lid situation on the IceFlow is just slightly better, but if that’s not a concern for you, then this is also a fantastic bottle to look at — especially if you want a cute water bottle that’s inspired by some of your favorite Disney characters, or just want a bottle that really matches your aesthetic.
