    Hi. We are staying at Old Key West and have reservations for DVC Top of the World on 7/4. We have a car but it seems like we may not be able to park there. What is the recommended way of getting to and from without using uber or minnie van?

    Hi Jocylynne, welcome home and welcome to planDisney! No better way to celebrate America’s 250th birthday than staying at a Disney Vacation Club villa! It sounds like you may be there already and are planning to visit the Top of the World Lounge - A Villains Lair Atop Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, so let’s get you the answer you need quickly!

    Jocylynne, I just spoke to a DVC Cast Member and they informed me that DVC will be hosting a different dessert party other than the usual Wicked Wind Down. You probably already know this since you booked it! I also asked them about the ability to park and unfortunately DVC Members attending the party and not staying at Bay Lake Tower cannot park at the Resort. Instead, the DVC Cast Member suggested that Members rely on Walt Disney World Transportation to get to Bay Lake Tower.

    Since you’re looking for some recommended transportation options apart from rideshare services, the easiest would be to take a bus to the Magic Kingdom. From there, you can either walk to Bay Lake Tower or take the Resort Monorail Loop one stop to Disney’s Contemporary Resort and walk over to Bay Lake Tower from there.

    Jocylynne, I hope this information gets to you in time and I hope you enjoy the special dessert party. Have a slice of the Seven “Lair” Cake for me! Wishing you a happy holiday and a fun Walt Disney World vacation. If you have any additional questions about getting the most out of your DVC membership, please feel free to reach out to me and my fellow panelists here at planDisney!

    Your pal,
