Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney. We're so happy you stopped by and even happier to hear you're planning a Walt Disney World Resort vacation! It's the very best kind, if you ask me.
A split-stay is my family's absolute favorite way to experience the Disney Resorts Collection. When you stay at two (or more!) Disney Resort hotels in a single vacation, you can enjoy the unique amenities, theming, and recreational offerings of each. And talk about uniqueness at
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa and
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge! You'll just love both these immersive and stunning hotels.
Complimentary luggage transfers between the Disney Resorts Collection make moving my family of five from one hotel to another super easy and convenient. You ask an excellent question about this service. On the day of your move from your first hotel to your second, you'll need to take all your luggage and any additional bags to
Bell Services. They'll count and tag your belongings to make sure they all get to their correct destination. Please note that it can take several hours for your luggage to be moved to your second hotel, so be sure to keep any medications or the like in your park bag. When you're ready to collect your bags at your second hotel, you'll need to either stop by Bell Services there to pick them up or call the desk from your in-room phone to have your bags delivered to you. Luggage transfers
are complimentary, but I like to have some small bills on hand to tip the Cast Members handling our bags.
There are lots of
perks to being a Guest of the Disney Resorts Collection, but did you know that as Guests of not one but TWO Disney Deluxe Resort Hotels, your party can take advantage of
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours? These are the best! I mean, what's not to love about extra, exclusive time in the theme parks?
I hope this was helpful. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
