Hello Kevin! Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question.
I really enjoy spending time at the
Walt Disney World Resort Hotels. Over the years I've almost stayed at all of them and have had great experiences at each one. Even if I am not staying there, one of the favorite things to do is hop over to
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort for a drink at the
Tambu Lounge. This is absolutely okay to do! In fact, you can dine, shop and explore at any resort that you would like. During Christmastime several resorts have lifesize
gingerbread houses and figures that my family and I enjoy seeing. We make an afternoon out of it grabbing snacks and drinks at each of the resorts along the way. If you are wanting to use the pool facilities at a different resort than the one you are staying at, this isn't allowed. The pools are reserved for Guests staying at that resort. There is an exception to this rule, however. At
Disney's Contemporary Resort and
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Guests staying at any Walt Disney World Resort Hotel have the ability to
rent a cabana at either one of those resort pools for the day.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please feel free to come back and ask.
