    During our last visit, on the last day we found out from a cast member at GF that if you are staying at a Disney resort you can use any pool with the exception of a few. I have found conflicting information on the panel. Can you please confirm?

    There is inconsistent information between Cast Members as it's difficult to be aware of all the varying policies. It sounds like the Cast Member was referring to Disney Vacation Club members.

    All pool entrances clearly post that their pool is for guests of that resort only.

    Guests that are eligible to pool hop (with a few exceptions including Stormalong Bay at the Yacht and Beach Club, Bay Lake Tower and Kidani Village) are Disney Vacation Club Members. Even for DVC Members there are restrictions on the time of year that they can pool hop.

    Finally, if your resort pool is being renovated, you'll be given pool privileges at a nearby resort.

    Port Orleans Riverside and Port Orleans French Quarter are "sister" resorts and allow guests to use all facilities (including pools) at both resorts. They are convenient situated just a short walk from each other or a fun boat ride on the Sassagoula River.

    Hope this helps!
