Luggage Storage for WDW/Cruise/WDW?

[Dugette]

We're staying at Boardwalk Villas for 4 nights pre-cruise, then returning there for a few more nights post-cruise. We will have one-way car rentals to and from port, so can't leave luggage in the car. Wondering if anyone knows whether or not we can leave luggage with BWV bell services while we're on our 4-night cruise? If we have to bring everything with us on the cruise, we'll manage, but it would be nice to split out the cruise vs. WDW luggage and just leave what we don't need on land. Any experience with this?

That's a question that's best asked of the CMs at Boardwalk. There are many reports of people being able to leave their bags at their resort in just such a situation as you're doing (WDW/cruise/WDW). There have also been a few reports where it wasn't allowed.

I just a asked the same question to a DVC CM. She did not know the answer but called BLT to find out. She said we can definitely leave our bags with bell services.

We have done exactly this at Boardwalk. Talk to the Bell Services manager to arrange it.

What if we are staying at a different resort post cruise. Is it possible to leave our bags at the new resort? or even have them transferred over? We will be in Florida for almost 3 weeks so we are going to have a lot of stuff!

Yes, it's been done. You should contact the resort(s) involved and see who to arrange it with.

Would it be wise to do this pre-trip or once we are at the resort?

Just go to the Bell Services desk when you are at the resort and ask to talk to the manager.

Awesome thanks! It will make things easier this way!
