Hi Amanda! Welcome to planDisney and thanks so much for asking this great question! I'm so excited to hear that you are planning a vacation to The Most Magical Place on Earth!
I absolutely love split stays at Walt Disney World Resort! It's a great way to experience the unique theming that each resort has to offer! While luggage transfer is available for split stays between select hotels, it is not available for luggage to be sent to
Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel or Good Neighbor Hotels. If you wanted to stay at one of those locations, you would need to utilize your own vehicle or a ride share service to move your luggage. If you prefer not to transfer your own luggage, you might want to consider choosing another
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel for the duration of your split stay. I'm happy to say that bell services at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort will transfer your luggage to one of those resorts!
Another of many pixie-dusted advantages to staying at a Disney Resorts Collection Hotel is that on the day you would like to change resorts, you can hand off your luggage, head to the theme parks, and take
complimentary transportation to your new resort when you're ready to check-in! Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo! You will be there almost as fast as Fairy Godmother waves her wand! Our family's favorite transportation to ride is the
Disney Skyliner and you can take that right from Art of Animation to
EPCOT or
Disney's Hollywood Studios!
As you are planning your visit, be sure to make
theme park reservations for each day that you would like to visit a park. There's so much to see and do during
The World's Most Magical Celebration and you won't want to miss any of the magic!
I'm so happy you stopped by planDisney and we would love to answer additional questions if you have them!
Happy Planning!
Lisa
