Parking question for my fellow DVC-er's

[Kidanifan08]

We have a dinner at O'Hana and one at Chef Mickey over the course of our next trip. We are renting a car for the trip and I was wondering about our parking options. We will have 3 (adult) kids and 1 real kid. They may want to head to MK after dinner, while the 4 (adult) adults hang at the resort and go to the local lounge.

What are our parking options at those two venues? How long can we stay in the lot? If we are time-limited at Poly, would we be able to park near TTC and walk to the Poly? Having never done that, where is the parking near the TTC?

The TTC parking is the MK theme park parking. You would park in the MK lot and then get a tram to the TTC and then walk over to the Poly.

If just for the restaurant reservation at an MK resort, you can get into the resort lot for three hours. If you want to stay for longer including to go to the park, go to the gate and tell them you will be valet parking and then valet park and pay the valet parking fee (now $20, good for a day including resort hopping). If you do not want to pay valet, then option mentioned above, to park at the MK lot and use available transportation to the resort, is the way to go via car. You can, of course, take your own resort's bus to MK and use av available transportaiton such as monorail from there.

3 hours - but only if the security guards gives you a parking pass.

If it were me I'd be tempted to take my resort bus to the MK and walk to the Contemporary or monorail to the Poly then you would be really able to enjoy the lounges etc.

If I really wanted to take the car I'd valet park it.
