Hi Nicole,
Thanks for stopping by planDisney!
It's super exciting to hear that you're putting together your trip to the Walt Disney World Resort. There's so much to enjoy about staying in the area around
Disney's BoardWalk and the EPCOT Resort Area, including the easy proximity to
Disney's Hollywood Studios and
EPCOT. And of course, there's also a lot to love about a stroll around nearby Crescent Lake.
As you likely know,
Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel and
Walt Disney World Swan Hotel are third-party hotels and not part of the
Disney Resorts Collection and so some of the
features and benefits offered will vary.
If you are booking your stay at either of these hotels
online through The Walt Disney Travel Company, you'll see you have the option to book a vacation package that includes your room reservation and your theme park tickets. You'll also see you have the option to add a Disney Quick-Service Dining Card as well as rental car and Travel Protection Plan. When you book the package online at 31 days or more from your arrival, you would be required to pay a $200 deposit. The payment in full would be due 30 days before your arrival.
If you are booking a room-only reservation through The Walt Disney Travel Company, you can call (407) 939-1936 for pricing information and booking. You would put down a deposit of your first night's stay plus tax, with the balance due when you check in.
Nicole, I hope this information is helpful. If you find you'd like additional assistance, you can reach out to The Walt Disney Travel Company at (407) 939-1936. You can also use the convenient
online chat service to chat with a Cast Member.
Here's wishing you lots of Disney magic in your day today, Nicole!
Jerry
