How to handle this split stay issue?

[RadioFanatic]

So, my disney vacation has taken on a life of its own. I'm spending two nights at BLT, four nights on a DCL cruise and then 4 nights at AKV. I have a two year old, so there are some food and personal items I feel like I can't really do without, like diapers, milk, bottled water, snacks, etc. Usually when I do DVC, I use Wego and love them. I would like to do it at the beginning of the trip, get all I need but is there a way to get AKV to keep it the four nights I'm on the DCL cruise or am I dreaming. And btw, I'm not talking about the milk, that is a separate issue. thanks!

This is an interesting problem. Of all the items in your list, the only refrigerated one is the milk. You may consider a split grocer delivery, wit only the things you need at BLT for the two nights. You could likely pack these in a suitcase or box, take a Disney bus to AKL with your confirmation, and ask them to store it while you are on the cruise. Then have another grocer delivery the day you get back.

If refrigeration is not required and it is one case/box, I do not think they would have an issue holding onto it, especially if it is only food (that is, something that can be lost and not of substantial value).

Of course, you could always call the front desk at AKL (407-938-3000) and ask .

Good luck!

It would seem reasonable that you could have Bell Services transfer the food items to AKV and store them there for your arrival after the cruise. I thought someone mentioned on another thread that they did it that way on their trip. I would definitely label the refrigerated items to be sure they got in the correct cold storage, same for the the freezer food stuffs. And I would label each bag, 1 of XX bags, 2 of XX bags etc. That way you'll know if you get all of the bags/boxes.

Has anyone done this while cruising and doing a before and after WDW stay?

Except for the milk......you could owners locker it, couldn't you?
