Tap Water at OKW - Drinkable?

[Rowaena]

While I am sure the water itself is safe, YMMV on your tolerance for the taste and mineral content of it.

I personally come from an area where the water is quite soft. So the hard, sulfurous-smelling water at WDW really bothers me. I just drink bottled while I am there, and tolerate the smelly showers. Use lots of body lotion if you are not used to bathing in hard water. It will make your skin feel chalky.

Dealing with my long hair and washing it in hard water presents even more problems! If I lived there, I would so have a water softener on the house!

We have found the tap water at all of WDW and at every place we have stayed anywhere in Florida to have a different taste to it than we are used to. It is not unsafe, it is just Florida. It seems better if you get it real cold (with ice) but while there we just prefer bottle water for drinking. Never got ill from drinking Florida water.

We drink bottled water at Disney, however, we do use tap water to make coffee and for cooking and have not had a problem with that. I do think there is a high sulfur content in the water in central Florida and I don't like the taste.

Apparently water at DisneyWorld does not have a high level of suphates - see the following link:
