Dawn,
Thanks for asking your question to planDisney!
I just stayed at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside, and I simply loved it!
The rooms at Port Orleans Resort - Riverside do have coffee makers and mini refrigerators, but they do not have microwaves as a standard feature. You can request a microwave for your Disney Resort Hotel room, though getting one is not totally guaranteed. What you want to do is call your resort prior to your visit and make the request. The phone number for Port Orleans Riverside is
(407) 934-6000.
Disney cannot promise to get you one in your room, since they only have a limited number available to loan out. But the earlier you get your request in, the greater chance that you will get what you need. When we needed one on a past trip, Disney cast members installed it in our room while we were out and about, having a fun first day. It appeared like magic!
BONUS TIPEven if you do not get a microwave installed in your room, I did find them openly available for use at the
Riverside Mill Food Court.
Please feel free to
write me back directly if you have any follow-up questions.
Have a Magical Vacation!Doug
