Hey Denise, and welcome to planDisney!
Yes, you can visit other Disney Resort hotels to partake in the activities at that resort! As a matter of fact, we have done this many times, and each time, it was such a fun experience to add to our list of “been there done that” entertainment options.
Having access to all of those additional recreation options allows you to break from the norm of the day for sure. For example, you are a guest of
Disney's Art of Animation Resort, and you want to experience the
Carriage Rides at
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort, you can do that. If you arrive by car, just let the gate attendant know that you are there for a reserved activity, and they will instruct you where to park and where to go. If you arrive via the
Walt Disney World Bus Service, just walk right on in and proceed to your activity, unless you are not familiar with the resort, and in that case, you can ask for directions from a cast member.
Have the most magical stay!
