Hiya, Ed, and welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you're arriving at the Most Magical Place on Earth very soon, and you must be so excited! I'm so glad you've stopped by with this great question.
Ed, you're going to love staying at
Disney's Beach Club Villas! The gorgeous grounds, beautifully decorated interior, and proximity to EPCOT and the Boardwalk area make it one of my favorite places to stay. When you stay in a 2-Bedroom Villa, you're welcome to call Housekeeping to request a blender if there is not one already in your room. You can either call them using your in-room phone or say "Hey Disney" to the virtual assistant.
Now is a great time to check out the menus of the dining locations you'll be visiting during your vacation. You can do this within the
My Disney Experience Mobile App. Don't hesitate to ask your Server if they can accommodate any of your dining restrictions. In addition, you're more than welcome to bring your own food to the
Disney Theme Parks. If you bring a cooler, remember that
loose ice is not permitted, so remember to load up your ice packs.
I can't let you go without recommending DOLE Whip, which can be found at multiple dining locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort. It might just be the perfect soft snack for your travel companion who has endured mouth surgery. In addition, check out this
Foodie Guide that details all of the fun seasonal offerings you can try, many of which are in liquid form, including coffees, adult beverages, hot chocolate, gelato, and more!
Ed, I hope this is helpful to you as you settle in for your vacation. Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!
See ya real soon!
Jennifer
