ASMu - take towels or not?!

[mommy2aprincess4]

We are leaving for ASMu on Sunday, staying until the 12th. I'm debating on whether to take beach towels for the pool or just use some from the room? I checked the weather for next week and it's supposed to be high 70s to 80, but I don't know that we'll use the pool everyday. I am trying to cut down on some of the stuff we're taking.
So should I take towels or just get extras at the hotel and use them? thanks!

They provide towels and are happy to provide more on request. We did it.
I'd skip the load on the luggage and leave the towels at home.

On the other hand, the towels in the room are not as large as a standard beach towel. If this is a big deal to you, you might need to take them. We sacrificed the size of the towel so we wouldn't have more to pack.

I agree with PP. Just get some extras from Mousekeeping.

Have a great time!!! We were there about two weeks ago and loved it!!!

I always bring my beach towel with me, I just prefer using my own towel at the pool. But then again we usually drive so throwing a couple of beach towels in the car doesn't really make any huge difference when packing, now if you are flying that could be a different story.

You could buy beach towels at disney world, they aren't too expensive and tehy make useful souveniers.

We picked up a couple of beach towels through Disneyshopping.com at some great discounted prices. They're not the best material (not the thick and fluffy ones) but got the job done! They folded nicely and we used them to "line" the bottom of our suitcases so they didn't take up too much room.

We like bringing our own towels for different reasons but on our most recent trip it was due to going to TL one day of our stay.

We used to purchase towels every trip (especially the "celebration" ones like 25 years, 100 years, etc) as cool souviers but they can get pricey depending on how many towels you'd need.

We're big night swimmers and when stayed at ASmu enjoyed watching the evening poolside movies wrapped up in our towels on the lawn chairs after a swim. The daytime weather may have been nice, but it was cool and breezy at night... it was nice to wrap up in a good-sized towel for the walk back.

ASmu will provide you with towels if you need them though and extras upon request!

I always use our beach towels folded in half, on top of all our stuff in the luggage. It goes flat and doesn't take any room, and protects all your stuff underneath if the luggage got wet or something!
