Hello there, Edward!
A warm welcome to planDisney and thank you for bringing us your phenomenal
Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question. Your holiday at The Most Magical Place on Earth is just weeks away - the countdown is almost over and your enchanting experience is about to begin! Before you pack your bags to head to
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside, let's discuss how to ship packages to your Disney Resort hotel ahead of your arrival.
Edward, of all of the
Moderate Resort hotels on property, Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside is my family's favorite. I think you'll appreciate the tranquil nature and scenic views of the resort. Not to mention, it's just a hop, skip, and jump away from both Magic Kingdom Park and
Disney Springs! I'm happy to inform you that, among the many amenities that Guests can enjoy during a stay at a Disney Resort hotel, Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside is able to
receive mail and packages on behalf of Guests. This is a great option for Guests wishing to save space in their suitcases!
To ensure your package arrives at the correct location, address it using this format:
GUEST - ("Primary Guest's Name/Arrival Date")
1251 Riverside Drive
Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830-8514
Edward, a small, per-package handling fee will be applied to any packages received by the resort's Front Desk on your behalf. Once you arrive at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside, simply stop by the check-in area and let the Cast Members at the Front Desk know you'd like to pick up your package! As a courtesy, I recommend trying to coincide your package delivery date and your arrival on-site so that the Resort hotel won't need to store your shipment for more than a few days.
I hope you've found this information helpful, Edward. During your stay, be sure to pop over to
Scat Cat's Club - Café at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter for a fresh, warm Mickey-shaped beignet. You'll be glad you did! If you have any additional planning questions ahead of your trip, you're always welcome to return to
planDisney. We're all ears!
See ya real soon,
Lauren
