My TA called today to get more information for me. She says we'll be able to select which Frozen Sing-along we go to when we arrive for our appointment.

However, she also told me she found out that the cafe is only supposed to be used during the time our princess is getting her makeover. I'll be watching for reports from others to find out what they experienced. If we only have access to the lounge for an hour, it becomes one EXPENSIVE snack!

Doesn't make too much sense, since we will be staying with our three year olds during their makeover.

And yet it does make at least a little sense that you can't use it all day. What about people who don't have an appointment until later in the day? They would only get to use it for a fraction of the time compared to those who went in the morning. Obviously the idea is that the princess gets her makeover while some or all of the family watches (other family can go chill in the lounge if desired) and then they all get to stop in for a snack before heading on their way for the rest of their day. I guess I just want to know for sure what to expect before I fork over the money.

CMs are being told (and relaying to guests) that access to the lounge is all-day and that groups receive wristbands for continuous access.

The website says you enjoy the lounge during the makeover, but it would be cool to have access all day.

I wonder if there is any chance they will extend the dates on this?

We had an 10:40 appointment today. I can with 100% certainty you get access to the lounge all day. We are there right now for our 2nd visit. They tell you when you get your wrist band it is for all day access.

Also the lounge is about empty all day. There had only been 1 other family each time we've come. Staff said that us about normal

We also got our choice for the sing a long.

As for the make over, well. We love the final look. We didn't get the best FGMIT. Hair was not her strong suit. She didn't use any gel in her hair and it has not stayed well. Also didn't give much for the glitter to hold on to.

We ended up buying a skirt because it looks so cute with the top we already had.

We love the final look

Oh she looks adorable!!! So glad it's all day access. I hope you totally ate a million Olaf bars

Thank you so much for your "on-the-scene" update! I'm so happy to hear you get access all day. I think we'll keep our appointment. It sounds like it must be easy to change your mind and add more to your package when you get there (like adding a costume or skirt if you want)? Your daughter looks fantastic!

I was wonder, I only have a boy that would like to have the Olaf shirt and hair done but would also enjoy the Frozen themed cafe. Do they have a price for letting a family with only a boy enjoy the cafe? If not that seems pretty unfair that only families with a girl get in to the themed the cafe. I understand it is overpriced desserts but it is something inside that is cool and a good break in the day instead of going back to the resort.

So happens we are back at the cafe. I just went to ask what option they have for a boy to have access to the cafe. You can pay $100 on top of the Olaf package and get the cafe and frozen sing a long, just like the girls package

Yes, you can add on no problem

 

[AngiTN]

Oh, there is a bath room in the cafe too

 

[Iowamomof4]

It sounds like a lovely oasis away from the heat and crowds! Thank you so much for providing some much-needed intel for us!!

 

[2girls4ever]

thanks so much for the review! can i ask one other question how did they attach the braid?

 

[AngiTN]

thanks so much for the review! can i ask one other question how did they attach the braid?

They put her hair in a ponytail with a clear holder. The hair piece is on a ponytail holder too. They loop it over their hair. Then she braided the hairpiece in to two braids. Then put DGDs hair in a bun. Hard to see in the pic but there are 2 snowflake clips in the ends of the braid and there are the smaller snowflakes in the braids too. Plus one in the bun

 

[2girls4ever]

do you think itd work on short hair?

 

[2girls4ever]

by the way she looks adorable!

 

[Iowamomof4]

Do you think you might be able to use it (the braid) for the rest of your trip or will it fall apart when you take it out tonight?
