Early Entry, Genie + booking when staying at the Dolphin

[ProudMommyof2]

We will be staying at the Dolphin on Thanksgiving weekend.
We booked with a 3rd party- Prestigia- so I don’t think I can link the reservation in MDE.
How do we capitalize on the on-site perks of Early Entry/Extended hours and early booking with Genie +?
I am guessing entering the park will be ok because we will be able to show we are staying there. But, if the hotel stay isn’t linked, what about booking Genie +at 7am instead of waiting until park opening?
TIA for any insight

Genie+ can be booked at 7 no matter where you stay. It's the ILL$ that requires onsite stay. However, even with a third party booking, you should get a reservation number that you can use in MDE. I'd just try adding any number that looks like a reservation to your MDE account. When I added third party tickets, I had to do it on the website, so you may need to do that as well.

If you can't find a reservation number that works for Disney, either try calling the hotel or go to the front desk when you check in to see if they have a reservation number you can link in MDE.

If you can't link with the Prestigia confirmation, you can try calling them and asking for the Disney confirmation number. I've done similar in the past with other booking sites.
