    Can I park at the Contemporary Reort prior to my check-in time and after my check-out time the next day?

    Hi Stacy, thanks for visiting planDisney! 

    If you arrive before your official check-in time, you are welcome to park at Disney’s Contemporary Resort and begin enjoying the resort amenities! I suggest leaving any luggage at Bell Services so you can walk around freely, and if you have any groceries, they can store those in a refrigerated area for you as well! If you've completed Online Check-In, you can bypass the Front Desk when your room is ready and use your My Disney Experience app to open your room door. 

    Contemporary Resort is one of my favorite resorts to explore, Stacy. One of the first things I do on my visit is visit the Grand Canyon Concourse to admire the massive mural by Mary Blair. Don’t forget to look for the five-legged goat! After that, I go to Contempo Café for a bite to eat while I sit and watch the monorail go by. Contempo Café also has some great themed desserts, like the 5-Legged Goat Fruit Tart and the Monorail S’mores Brownie. But if you get a chance to visit Steakhouse 71 for lunch, the Stack Burger is one of my favorite burgers at Walt Disney World! Obviously, on my travel days, I like to know what food options I have when I arrive at a resort! 

    After you’ve eaten, you can continue exploring the shops on the Grand Canyon Concourse or even step onto an outdoor area with seating and fantastic views of Magic Kingdom. You are also welcome to visit the pool, fitness center, arcade, or other resort amenities before your room is ready. 

    If you have a valid theme park admission, Magic Kingdom is within walking distance, or you can hop on the Monorail to visit nearby resorts or make your way to EPCOT. Buses are also available to take you to Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, or Disney Springs. 

    You can continue to use the resort amenities, including parking, until 11:59 PM on the day of your checkout. I know I want to enjoy every last moment of Disney magic before it’s time to leave! 

    I hope this was helpful, Stacy! Enjoy your visit, and if you have any more questions please come back and see us again at planDisney!
