Aloha, Shannon!
Welcome back to planDisney! We are thrilled you've stopped by with another great Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question. I hope you are having a wonderful time planning the practically perfect details of your upcoming magical vacation. It will be here before you know it!
Disney's Contemporary Resort is wonderful. Being on the monorail loop makes transportation to Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT and the other monorail resorts a breeze. My kids love to take a quick trip over to
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort to grab a DOLE Whip® from
Pineapple Lanai or a morning visit with Disney friends at the
Best Friends Breakfast Featuring Lilo & Stitch at 'Ohana. Unfortunately, the resort pools at Disney Resort Hotels are only for Guests staying in that particular hotel and pool-hopping is not allowed.
You'll find that the
Feature Pool at Disney's Contemporary Resort is huge and offers a water-play area and a 17-foot-high curving waterslide. There are also two hot tubs and a smaller leisure pool to enjoy.
As my panelist pal, Amy, suggested in the last question, my family also adores Character Dining Experiences and we always enjoy a visit to Chef Mickey's. But, for an extra special treat,
California Grill is the place to visit. The food is phenomenal, the view unforgettable and if you manage to grab a reservation that overlaps with Magic Kingdom Park fireworks--it's truly magical!
Have an incredible vacation, Shannon! Please come see us again soon if there is anything else we can help you with.
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
