Or do guests of the resort get to park in the parking area closer to the resort?
For those people who drive their own car, or don't want to valet, the self parking lot at the GF is a disgrace. For a "flagship" resort having the parking lot across the street from the hotel is just not acceptable.The parking lot works for the resort because the majority of their guest either fly in with no car, or have no problem with using valet to park.

Also, there is no reason to believe that guests at the GF either fly in with no car more so than guests who stay at any of the other WDW Deluxe Resorts.
As to not having a problem with valet parking I guess that if you can afford to stay at the GF you don't mind paying the daily fee, but I don't know how anybody would know if this was a problem or not without either being a mind reader, or interviewing all the GF guests and asking them for their opinion.
yes, i can see that a lot of people do not drive so parking isn't an issue. it does make for a spectacular entrance when you don't see all of the lines of cars in front of the building. can't wait to go!

Keep in mind your valet parking fee includes valet parking at ANY resort that has it. For example, if you have paid for valet parking at your hotel for the day and go to the Contemporary for dinner, tell the valet there you have paid valet parking and they honor it.
The last time I looked the GF is the only resort where to get from the self parking lot to the lobby you have to cross a street with traffic coming in both directions and wait for the light to turn green. There is simply no comparison between the GF self parking lot and the other Deluxe Resort parking lots.The lot is no further than areas of WL, Contemporary, AKL and BWI and even Yacht and Beach. All the deluxe resorts have some type of division be it a road, landscaping, a canal between the lots and the hotel.
