Hi Judy! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
You have chosen the perfect Disney Resort hotel to stay at, especially for visiting the
Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. The last time my husband and I stayed at
Disney's Yacht Club Resort, we did so without our kids and LOVED being able to stroll into Epcot without waiting for transportation. I also suggest some walks around the water and on
Disney's BoardWalk. It is especially dreamy during the sunset. *swoon*
Guests with a Disney Resort hotel reservation will receive MagicBands. If your son and his girlfriend are listed on the room reservation, they will receive
MagicBands, as well. Guests not on a Disney Resort hotel reservation will not receive MagicBands. If your son and his girlfriend are staying in your room for the weekend, you will need to
call (407) 939-1936 to have them added to those nights of your reservation. Since your trip is so close, you won't be able to customize a MagicBand for them, but they can get one from the Front Desk when they arrive.
Enjoy your upcoming vacation, Judy! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
