Walking from Dolphin to Swan

[suzimar57]

How far of a walk is it between these 2 resorts?


My son spending night before at Dolphin & meeting us at Swan next day, will be walking with luggage

For all intents and purposes, they are two ends of the same resort, connected by a walkway/boat dock in between. So walking from Swan to Dolphin is maybe 300 yards, closer to each other than many outer builds are at WDW resorts like the Poly and CR and most of the moderates. The used to be served by different hotel chains, but now (IIRC) are both Marriott. The Swan Reserve is a little further away and across the street.

Swan in front of photo, Dolphin in back. It's probable, your son can get bel services move him from one to the other in he wanted. In your stay, you'll probably walk and and forth between the buildings throughout the day.

It’s maybe a 3 minute walk between hotels. About .3 of a mile. Couldn’t be closer! Plus nice covered sidewalks to pull luggage.

Technically, the Swan is a Westin, the Dolphin is a Sheraton and the Swan Reserve is an Autograph Collection Hotel. All are Marriott brands.

Well, actually it's the other way around. Dolphin is Sheraton and Swan is Westin.

It's not far. The Dolphin is easy to get lost in though. At least to me. I went in looking for the business center to pick up a package, and it took me like 20 minutes to find my way back out, because I assumed all exterior exits would feed back to the main "bridge." It's not obvious from the outside that there are seemingly miles of convention space that is surrounded by service lots. So, as long as he doesn't try to get creative, he should be fine.

Maybe about a block. Not far at all should not be a big deal.
