Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Krissy. I'm super excited that you stopped by and even more excited to hear that you'll be traveling to the Walt Disney World Resort NEXT week! I am sure you're eagerly counting down the days. I know I would be!
Whether you're staying at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside or
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter, you are sure to have a magical visit. My family just enjoyed a stay at Port Orleans Resort - Riverside last month and we had the best time! We walked along the peaceful Sassagoula River, splashed around at
Ol' Man Island, took a leisurely cruise to
Disney Springs on a
water taxi, and stopped by Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter to indulge in some freshly baked beignets (YUM!).
To answer your question, you can absolutely charge purchases to your room folio and then pay down that balance at the Front Desk to avoid charges being posted to your credit card. I recommend visiting the Front Desk when you first arrive to ask how often you should stop by to make those incremental payments. The friendly Cast Members there will be happy to assist you!
Did you know that Guests of Disney's Port Orleans Resort hotels can take advantage of the feature pools at both Riverside and French Quarter? The two pools are just a short walk or a short water taxi ride away from one another!
I hope this was helpful, Krissy. I'm wishing you a magical stay at the Walt Disney World Resort next week!
