Hi Nancy!
Welcome to planDisney.
I am excited to see you have a wonderful vacation planned, with a split stay between
Disney's Pop Century Resort with its enviable position on the
Disney Skyliner route, and then moving to the wonderful tranquility of
Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort.
When you move between two Disney Resort hotels you don't need to worry about moving your luggage - just stop by Bell Services, located by the Front Desk, and tell them you are moving to another hotel, and they will take care of your luggage and deliver it for you. You can then go and enjoy your day! When you arrive at Wilderness Lodge, check with Bell Services that your luggage has arrived. You can either take it with you (if your room is ready) or they will deliver it to your room for you. You will need to be present in your room to accept delivery. The usual check-in time at Disney Resort hotels is 3.00 pm, but if you use
Online Check-in you will receive a text message or email (whatever is your preference) with details of your room number when it is ready for you.
I am very happy to see that you are staying at Disney's Wilderness Lodge as this happens to be my favourite place to stay! Enjoy a relaxing boat ride to/from Magic Kingdom Park, take a walk along the waterfront, past Copper Creek Springs Pool and Fire Rock Geyser (which is a wonder of nature as it erupts every hour from 7.00 am) and I highly recommend
Geyser Point Bar & Grill, not least for its stunning location beside Bay Lake, which is beautiful day or night, but also for a relaxing drink or delicious meal.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions. You can also
send me a direct question about Wilderness Lodge, or any other planning questions. We will be happy to help you plan your magical vacation at Walt Disney World!
