    When arriving without a car, what is the best way to get groceries for resort stays. In prior trips we drove, but decided to take Amtrak this trip. A Lyft/Uber to shop, having Walmart, Publix or another store deliver?

    Hi, Diana! Welcome to planDisney.

    How exciting that you'll be taking Amtrak on your next visit to Florida. I've always wanted to travel down by train. I bet you're going to have a smooth and beautiful journey.

    Thankfully, it's very easy to have groceries delivered straight to your Disney Resorts Collection hotel, so your must-haves are ready when you arrive. Most services let you schedule deliveries days or even weeks in advance, making trip planning a breeze.

    Popular options include Instacart, Amazon Fresh, Walmart Grocery, and Whole Foods Market, along with Disney-preferred local services like Dizzy Dolphin, Garden Grocer, and Vacation Delivery Service. These local providers are especially reliable when it comes to labeling orders correctly and following Disney’s policies, ensuring a smooth experience for Guests.

    To make sure your delivery goes off without a hitch, include your full name and resort details in the shipping address. Groceries are dropped off at Bell Services, where they’ll be safely stored—including refrigerated items—until you're ready to start your magical stay! One more note: If you order alcohol, you'll need to be present with ID verification.

    I hope that's helpful, Diana! See ya real soon.
