Hi there, Sandy! Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney. I see that you're getting ready to head to The Most Magical Place on Earth next week, so like eating dessert first, let's get right to the good stuff!
Among the many fantastic benefits of
Disney Vacation Club Membership is the ability to access
Top of the World Lounge - A Villians Lair, located at the very top of
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort. Members can access the lounge without reservations on a first-come, first-served basis, but some special events can be booked in advance.
One of these Member-exclusive offerings (and my personal favorite) is the Enchantment at the Top Dessert Party. Guests can enjoy a delectable dessert buffet and take in the nighttime fireworks at
Magic Kingdom Park from a prime viewing location. It's a very cool experience to see the show from this perspective, and as a bonus, you will not have to navigate the crowds leaving the Magic Kingdom afterward!
Sandy, the dessert party is held most Friday nights and eligible Members may make reservations by calling
Member Services. Because reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance and space is limited, this popular event does fill up quickly. The lounge doesn't accommodate same-day bookings, but I recommend checking with Member Services in the days leading up to the scheduled party in case there is a cancellation. If you're not able to snag a reservation this time around, don't forget that you can still visit the lounge between 6:00 PM and midnight daily, capacity permitting!
I am sure you are getting excited for your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation--that countdown is in single digits! If our planDisney squad can help with any other last-minute questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for visiting us!
Stay Magical,
Susan
