Welcome Home, Deanna!
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel! You are about to stay at one of my family's most frequented Resorts! I love that
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa is super close to
Disney Springs. Delicious food, great shopping, and fantastic entertainment are a ten-minute walk away from the Resort. We love to stop by the Food Trucks for
a quick dinner after we return from the Parks!
We are Florida Residents, so we drive to Walt Disney World Resort, and often our Villa is not quite ready when we arrive. No worries, because Bell Service makes it super easy to leave all.the.things and go off for fun. All you have to do is pull up to the Resort and let them know you need your luggage stored. They will take your bags and keep them for you until your return. Don't worry about
items that need to be refrigerated; they have a fridge available for perishables. Just let the Cast Member who picks up your luggage know which bags need to be refrigerated. When you return to your Resort, if you would like your luggage delivered to your room, they will happily do it for a nominal fee (tipping is appreciated!).
Before you head on your vacation, make sure to download the
My Disney Experience app. You can check-in to your hotel from there, and they will also give you updates about your room availability. I love getting the Welcome! ping followed by the "Room Ready" text. It is so convenient and allows you to focus on fun rather than waiting for your room! Once you return to the hotel, you can even use the app to
unlock your hotel room door! So.Much.Fun!
Deanna, I wish you a magical vacation!
