Hiya, Joseph!
It's always nice to chat with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member, so thanks for bringing your question to planDisney. Can you believe that you're just a few weeks away from arriving at Walt Disney World Resort? It's going to be here before you know it! And as a DVC Member, your visit couldn't come at a more perfect time because one of my favorite Member Benefits has
finally returned after a long hiatus ––
Top of the World Lounge is open to eligible Disney Vacation Club Members once again! Let me share a few details about this Member-exclusive space so you know what to expect during your upcoming visit.
Located on the 16th floor of
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, Top of the World Lounge officially reopened to eligible Disney Vacation Club Members with an ann-new Villans theme on July 11, 2022. To access the lounge during your visit, you'll need to be a DVC Member with access to Membership Extras, as well as using your Membership to stay at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel (both Vacation Points and cash stays will allow you to gain access). Members are welcome to bring all the Guests registered on their reservations to enjoy the lounge, but just keep in mind that the lounge is primarily available on a first come basis –– it can be
very popular during Disney Enchantment at Magic Kingdom Park, so I suggest grabbing a seat as early as possible if watching the fireworks is a priority for you.
The one exception to the first-come rule is for DVC Guests who choose to book the all-new Wicked Wind Down package. Not only does this new offering guarantee you a spot in the lounge, but you'll also have a specially-reserved area on the rooftop terrace to enjoy the fireworks. In addition to reserved viewing, the package includes a cocktail, appetizer, and a sweet treat to finish off the evening. The details of this package were just released and I can't wait to book a spot during my upcoming visit. If you're interested in making a reservation for yourself, you can do so by calling
Member Services at (800) 800-9800. Just keep in mind that this package is a limited-time offering –– the Wicked Wind Down is only available to Members through August 11, 2022.
I'm so glad you stopped by planDisney, Joseph. If you think of new questions as your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort visit gets closer, please don't hesitate to visit us again –– we're always here to help!
Wishing You Lots of Membership Magic,
Amy
