The Swan Non-Disney?? WHY?

[Sammie]

Just curious, why is the Swan and Dolphin and the Downtown Disney hotels considered off-site when all are located on Disney World property.

I can see saying they are not Disney owned and managed, but I have never understood the reference to them being off site.

I will also agree, the magic is within and based on some of the comments lately about Disney owned and managed resorts it is not always found at a Disney resort.

Enjoy your stay, the pool is wonderful and the location can't be beat and you can ride those wonderful Disney buses and boy that is about as magical as you can get, especially when the bus is full and you are the first stop.

SHHHHHHHHHH! DF - You weren't supposed to tell!!!!!

We jazzed up the toiletries by taking the shrink=wrapped disney washcloths my kids had bought at the Disney store. We did not care about soap as we liked the oatmeal soap.

Although they are non-Disney you will really enjoy this resort. I agree though that there is a little missing in the "magic" when staying at either Swan or Dolphin but boy!!! Very nice rooms...one of our favorite for room decorating and we love the extra vanity outside the main bathroom with the makeup mirror (well, my wife liked that).
