Other hotels and resorts specifically excluded are: Those on Hotel Plaza Blvd. past Downtown Disney, those in the Bonnett Creek complex south of Buena Vista Drive, and the Swan and Dolphin.
Nope. It goes to only Disney owned resorts. So no SoG, Swan or Dolphin...even though they are all considered 'onsite' resorts and get some of the other perks the Disney owned resorts get.
You could rent an Alamo car at the airport and turn it in at SOG. There is a an Alamo desk right at SOG. You could rent a car for as little as $35 for a 24 hour period. Also gives you the chance to go to the store for snacks and drinks.
I was actually asking as my daughter is considering flying down to meet my brother that will be staying at Shades. She can't rent a car but thanks for the suggestion. Long story, but we'll be getting there Saturday morning anyway. This would be a very short trip for DD if we can get here there (literally less than 48 hours).
