Welcome to planDisney, Robert! We just love helping our fellow Guests, so I am so glad you stopped by with such a great question!
Oh my goodness, Robert, you are going to LOVE doing a split-stay on your upcoming
Walt Disney World Resort vacation. While I know it may not have been what you had initially planned for, I promise it's only going to add to the magic of your stay. Each
Disney Resorts Collection hotel has a unique and immersive theme that will transport you to destinations across the globe, so it's like having two vacations in one!
To add to the wonder of it all, enjoying a split stay really is as easy as can be, thanks to the incredible Cast Members on the Bell Services team. Did you know that they will move your bags between your resorts for you, free of charge? All you'll need to do is bring your belongings down to the Bell Services desk when you check out and let them know that you will be moving over to another Disney Resorts Collection hotel. They will get you all set up for your luggage transfer, give you a ticket to claim your bags and send you on your way to enjoy another day of vacation fun! Then, POOF, with a wave of their magic wand, your bags will be waiting for you at Bell Services when you arrive at your second resort later in the day! How cool is that? Please do bear in mind that Bell Services cannot transfer any perishable items between resorts, so any food items will need to be hand-carried to your second resort.
When you get to your second resort, don't forget to take some time to look around and explore all that your new home has to offer. I also recommend taking some time to chat with one of the fabulous Cast Members and ask for their recommendations for the best things to do on the resort's property! They will definitely have the inside scoop on awesome recreation activities, arts and crafts, poolside fun, and so much more! Plus, they're just so much fun to chat with!
Robert, I can't wait for your adventure to begin! I just know you will make memories that will last a lifetime! Please do visit us again with any other Walt Disney World vacation planning questions that may pop up!
We are always here to help you make the absolute most of your vacation experience.
Have a magical day!
