    I’m trying to get clear information about whether we’ll be able to get free transport between Disney’s Dolphin hotel and the golf courses, if we have booked a tee time. We called the golf courses who said Dolphin isn’t included; but that’s not clear online

    Welcome to planDisney, Cydney! I'm so excited to see that you are already planning your trip to Walt Disney World Resort for next spring! It's never too early to start preparations for a magical vacation! I think it's a big part of the fun! 

    Disney provides complimentary taxi transportation between Disney Resort Collection hotels and all four of the Walt Disney World Golf Courses. However, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts are not part of that collection. This is probably disappointing news, and I'm sorry. Your options are to drive if you will have a car (parking is complimentary at the golf courses for guests with scheduled tee times) or use a rideshare service, such as Uber or Lyft. 

    I think you are going to love staying at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel! They offer most of the benefits of a Disney Deluxe Resort, including Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Theme Park Hours! It's located right next to Disney's Boardwalk, which is such a fun place! Take a stroll around Crescent Lake or even rent a Surrey Bike. I can't visit this area without stopping by The Cake Bake Shop Bakery by Gwendolyn Rogers. Their desserts are unmatched (edible gold dust and cake slices the size of your head!), but it's an experience just to walk inside! 

    Another benefit to the Dolphin Resort is that you can walk to EPCOT or take the Disney Skyliner to Disney's Hollywood Studios! You can take a Friendship Boat to both of those theme parks, as well! 

    I'm sorry I didn't have a better answer for you, Cydney. Keep up the great planning! Once you've chosen your resort, you can start thinking about park days and dining reservations! If you have additional questions, I do hope you'll come back and see us here at planDisney. We're always happy to help!
