Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, Elizabeth! Your upcoming Disney vacation sounds like a dream come true. A split stay that begins at the Walt Disney World flagship resort? Yes, please! It will be like two vacations in one. Let’s see if we can find an answer to your question that is a perfect fit, like Cinderella and her glass slipper.
I love Walt Disney World split-stays, giving you two unique experiences when you change resorts! Starting your stay at
Disney’s Grand Floridian places you a short walk or quick monorail ride away from
Magic Kingdom Park. You can watch the
Electrical Water Pageant and
Happily Ever After from your resort. There are some
incredible restaurants at the Grand Floridian as well. When you move to
Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel or
Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, you can enjoy being close to the fun on
Disney’s BoardWalk. You can also make short walks to the International Gateway entrance to
EPCOT and
Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Complimentary luggage transfers make moving from one Disney Resort hotel to another so easy! Unfortunately, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin are not officially included in this convenient, complimentary service. You can still request it when you arrive, but have a backup plan in place since the complimentary transfer service is not guaranteed and might not be available. This might be the perfect time to call the most adorable ride-share transportation option in Walt Disney World: the
Minnie Van!
Guest staying at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, and Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel are eligible for
Early Theme Park Entry and
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours! Two great perks that give you a little extra time in the magic. The Extended Evening Hours are my favorite. I love the extra time in the parks once the Nighttime Spectacular has ended and the crowds get a little smaller.
I hope you have a supercalifragilistic
Walt Disney World vacation, Elizabeth! If you have more questions or need recommendations, please come back here to

Happy Planning!
