Resort Thread Disney's POP CENTURY Resort

I just changed my Pop/CSR split stay to Pop/wilderness Lodge

That’s what I’m doing this week/next week! Have a great time!

I love hearing this. We have never stayed at Pop but will be there next weekend. Im super stoked!!

We’ll be there next weekend too - well, checking in Sunday. I’ve stayed there before but only for a night before a deluxe stay. I’m oddly excited for the food court, pool bar, and Skyliner - the only exception being is not being inside and safe from the elements once I get to the hotel.

I'll be there next weekend, too! Hope we all have an amazing trip

I’m seeing on other sites that Petals will be closed for renovations from September 8th to mid-October but no information about that on Disney site. Does anyone have confirmed information from official Disney sources?

No confirmation but it is one of the few locations on property that has not been renovated over the past couple of years so it could be a valid refurb coming.

Ugh, if the Petals refurb is acurrate (which it probably is), I really wish Disney would have communicated it to guests staying during this time, including details of the limited bar menu. I don't think we would have changed resorts, but it would be nice to have had time to plan for this. We spend most afternoons and several evenings hanging out at the bar.

You can always walk over to AoA and go to their bar.

Of course, but it's not quite as convenient. We are the people who book preferred pool view, not just for the pool but for proximity to Petals. Just would be nice to know about from Disney more than 2 weeks in advance. Also, I hope the work is all on the inside and the mug refill station will still be open.

Is the AoA bar inside or outside of the gated pool area?

My main concern is the availability of the refill station. I am up and heading out before the food court opens and would like to be able to have a soft drink to start my day.

I agree that it is short notice and hope for the best that they will do their best to accommodate guests.
