Why, hello there, Karen! Thanks so much for visiting planDisney again from across the pond with another excellent vacation planning question. You've got a friend in me, and I am happy to help you find some aquatic adventures to keep cool on your summer vacation at
Walt Disney World Resort.
There are many great benefits to
Disney Vacation Club Membership, from the deluxe accommodations to the extra-magical perks that are available to Members. I always make a point of taking a thorough look at the
Member Benefits site in the weeks leading up to our next Disney adventure so I'm up-to-date on all of the latest and greatest experiences and discounts!
Karen, there is not a discount on boat rentals listed for Members at this time. I spoke with
Member Services who confirmed that the listings on the website are always kept current, so it's your best source of information as the offerings do change often. I did note some other fun options that you might want to investigate for your upcoming trip--check these out!
- DVC Members currently receive a $25 discount on tickets to the Disney Water Parks. I can't think of a better spot to spend a hot August day than relaxing in a water wonderland!
- Set sail on the Disney Vacation Club Happily Ever After Fireworks Cruise! This is a Member-exclusive event featuring treats, a champagne toast, and an unobstructed view of the nighttime spectacular Happily Ever After from Seven Seas Lagoon! Contact Member Services to check availability and book this experience.
- If you believe that fish are friends, not food, you may want to take to the waters of Bay Lake on the Member Fishing Excursion, which is a catch-and-release adventure that departs from Disney's Wilderness Lodge.
Karen, I'm sorry this wasn't the answer you were hoping for, but I hope that some of these experiences might fit the bill for your vacation, or inspire you to try another new adventure! I recommend keeping an eye on the Member Benefits site as your trip approaches to see what sparks your interest.
It's been a pleasure answering your question--please don't hesitate to
reach out directly if I can assist with anything else related to DVC or Walt Disney World!
"Sea" Ya Real Soon!
