Hi All. I just booked one night at POP through a whole sale hotel booking site. Has anyone ever done this before? There was no availability on the WDW website. The booking site I used said they buy the rooms in bulk. I just don't want to get jipped. Thanks -Amanda
 
Well, After reading numerous 1 star reviews and "do not use this third party" I cancelled the reservation. I guess that's what I get for not reading reviews first. I booked a night at a Disney Springs Hotel instead. :cutie:
 
Wouldn't have been helpful to include the name of the site. The key is to use the URL in the post. If it shows up properly then at least you know they haven't done anything awful enough to get the Dis to notice it. If it shows up like this- www.xxxxx.com -then it's banned from discussion here.

I book two Disney trips (three different hotel reservations -- All Star Movies, Pop and Animal Kingdom) last year on Expedia. I had no issues. Once you get the confirmation number from Expedia, you put your confirmation number into your MDE account and there's absolutely no difference than if you had booked it thru Disney. You can then book your Magical Express, customize your Magic Bands and grab your fast passes 60 days before you trip.

Ahh, I didn't know I could do that. The site was www.hotelsclick.com which I got to through Trivago.
 
One caveat; if you use an online booking site, make sure you confirm the delivery address for the magic bands after you choose your colors.
The default mailing address for the bands is associated with the booking site and not the resort guest.
I once had our magic bands being sent to an Orbitz company address in Chicago before i double checked and noticed.

Thanks all for your input. So after booking the Disney Springs Hotel, I decided to check out the WDW website again. Turns out they released a bunch of rooms on the date I was looking for at a discounted rate. Happy Christmas to me!! I ended up getting one night at Wilderness Lodge. SO happy to be on property if only for one night <3 -Amanda
