Hi JoAnne, and welcome to planDisney!
A Girl Scout convention at
Walt Disney World Resort! What an excellent time to gather and enjoy those who are there for the same reasons as you, and to top it off, you get to enjoy that time with your family! I call that a win!
The good news is that it doesn’t matter where on the Walt Disney World Resort property you choose to enjoy your stay; it will be close to where you need to go. I am a fan of the following resorts:
Disney All-Star Resorts,
Disney’s Pop Century Resort,
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort in The Little Mermaid Standard Room, and
Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. All of the above are viable options that your family will enjoy, and the costs are reasonable.
No matter which resort to choose, you can utilize the available
Disney Bus Transportation, and though you won’t be able to be transported from resort to resort, you could hop the bus to one of the theme parks or Disney Springs and then transfer to the bus that takes you to Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. Another option would be to use one of the smartphone rideshare mobile apps or even the
Minnie Van Service, which is a fun way to be transported. In this case, I recommend possibly renting a car (unless you will have access to a vehicle); that way, you can get to the resort for the events without waiting.
If you have additional questions, please let us know how we can help.
Have a magical time!
