Question about booking Teacher Rate at Dolphin

[kerri0616]

Hi All!

The Dolphin website shows a teacher rate of $149+ for my dates (turns out to be $188 per night once all the incidentals are added in.)

Can I book this rate through WDW travel or do I have to book through Dolphin directly?

Thanks all!

The Dolphin is not Disney owned therefore you must book it directly through them.

The Dolphin CAN be booked on the official WDW site.

I've booked several times thru dreams unlimited (links off the front page of disboards where it says sponsored links 'Hotels Near Disney World'

No matter where you book, be sure to sign up for a Starwood Card for points and sometimes they give you a free upgrade on your first trip.

That's right, I have seen it available on the Disney Website. Sorry about that.

Thanks for the info! I love that they give teachers discounts - maybe my eye will stop twitching in July with a lounge by the pool and a frosty beverage.

Did you have to call to get the $149 rate? I can't find it on the site. Is it a rate offered in the summer?

I think the $149 is a value season rate.

I called and they offered me a teacher rate of $199 at the Dolphin and $219 at the Swan for May 2-5, 2008.

Call the hotel and find out. They do sell out that rate at times, so I have had to juggle dates in the past.
