Hi Michael!
One of my favorite things to do during vacation is to "resort hop", where we travel throughout Walt Disney World Resort to explore different Disney Resort hotels! It's a great way to experience the unique theming and atmosphere at each of the Disney Resort hotels. Plus, since many of the Disney Resort hotels are conveniently located near the theme parks, it's a great way to get a quick break from the parks during an exciting vacation day.
All Guests are welcome to visit the Disney Resort hotels and enjoy the dining and shopping that they offer. In fact, some of my favorite Walt Disney World Resort restaurants are located in the Disney Resort hotels. Unfortunately, the pools at the Disney Resort hotels are reserved exclusively for Guests staying at that Disney Resort hotel, so you won't be able to enjoy the pools at hotels where you aren't staying. However, you will be able to use the pools at your own Disney Resort hotel throughout your trip and if you want more time in the water, you can always visit
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park or
Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park!
Michael, be sure to also plan on visiting
Disney Springs during your vacation so you can enjoy the amazing dining, entertainment and shopping that this beautiful area offers. It's another fantastic area that's perfect to explore when you are spending time outside of the theme parks! Let us know if you have any additional questions. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
