Resort Thread Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB Resorts

[Nicole786]

We're here now. We were told water heated to 72. Definitely does not feel like 82. It's really cold. There are people swimming, but too cold for us, unfortunately.

Oh no this is such a bummer! With the dog thing, the construction, and now possibly not getting to enjoy SAB I'm sitting here wondering why the heck I'm staying at the YC. We check in Sunday.

I'll be arriving at BC on Sunday also, and from what I've seen of the long range forecast, it's going to be plenty warm for time in the pool. As far as the dogs, heck, a very recent poster just said it was a non-issue.... so, I'm thinking your pre-trip jitters are getting the best of you. If you have a problem, I know that the Disney folks will make it right. Relax.... hope you can enjoy your trip like I know we will enjoy ours!

Well I found the card it says pick up and drop off as follows-:
Epcot In the Bus Loop
Animal Kingdom Behind Bus Stop 17
Hollywood Studios Bus Stop 28.
I hope that little nugget helps some one else’s family.
You’re welcome

Excellent! I think we're going to use this service to get to our HDDMR over at Fort Wilderness the first night of our trip!

If we have a late flight can you request a late check out and whats the latest you can check out?

1pm is the latest check-out time I've heard of, without incurring a fee. Even with this late check-out, it will depend on whether your room is needed that day or not.

You are welcome to use the resort, visit parks, etc., until you leave that day. Your bags/personal belongings can be left with Bell Services, till you are ready to depart for the airport.

I also am not aware of a no-charge, late check-out past 1:00 pm.

 

[goofynut41]

A 1:00 p.m. check-out would be wonderful, If my flight leaves at 7:00 p.m. what time would Magical express take us to the airport?

 

[CJK]

Probably around 4pm if you are flying domestically, or 3pm if flying internationally.

Ask for a late check-out at the front desk, when you arrive, as well as early on the morning of departure. Their occupancy changes daily, so their ability to comply with your request can, as well.

Will BC hold luggage between reservations while on DCL?? We booked. 4 night cruise between 2 reservations. Flying directly home after cruise is not an option. Thanks!

We did this in May. Stayed at BWV precruise and AKL after. They not only held our luggage, but transferred it to AKL for us.

I know Minnie Vans are better than Uber/Lyft for MK because they drop off at MK. Is there any advantage to using a Minnie Van to Disney Springs over Uber/Lyft? (We have dinner at Morimoto Asia one night- we are not waiting for that bus!)

I feel like I'm definitely missing something here but this sounds like it has the potential to be handy! Stay WDW a few days, leave luggage and do DCL cruise, come back for more WDW.... But don't you need your luggage for your cruise?...

We had two bags. One packed with cruise wear and one with resort wear. Less to carry.

When you get back from the cruise could you let us know the room number?

Thanks!

AH! #genius

Does your airline info show up on your reservation? I don't see mine...

LOL yes normally but we are not normal.. we are 4 people and have 8 HUGE checked bags plus carryon.. WDW is also our annual shopping trip.. outlet clothes and american food stuff and "crap" from target and walmart.. I live overseas for this is my once a year time to stock up on stuff like pop tarts... so the plan was to leave our shopping luggage in WDW and just take carry on for the cruise as we are dong only 4 nights.. 4 large carry-ons plus back packs for 2 adults and kids is a lot and we skip having to wait for other luggage onboard.

It is "handy" but expensive .. we are really overstretching ourselves this year... WDW plus cruise is like doing 2 WDW vacations.. I am cutting back... no hoppers, no ADRs just QS.. I figure we will stuff ourselves on the boat,, WDW is our "fasting" time.. haha

Any mention where they drop off at MK? We have KTTK booked in January & have to be at entrance for 7:30. We were told not to take the bus, to cab over to the Contemporary, then walk. The CM on the phone mentioned the Minnie Vans but didn’t know if they drop off where the buses do or at TTC.
