Hey there, Mandy! From one Mandy to another, welcome back to planDisney! I'm so glad to see you here with such great planning questions.
I couldn't be more excited to see that the magic is calling you and you're answering the call by planning your next magical adventure at
The Most Magical Place on Earth. I absolutely
love Disney's All-Star Resorts. With the larger-than-life decor, oh-so-fun pools and fantastic dining options, it just
feels like Disney at these Resorts, and they make the perfect magical home away from home. Now, let's get this planning party started!
At the All-Star Resorts, you will find drink refill stations to fill your Resort mugs at the Food Courts, and you will be able to refill your mugs during normal operating hours. While the Food Courts' hours are subject to change, they are typically 6:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. You can also check with the front desk when you arrive to see if there are any other refill stations available during your magical stay.
If you think you may need something to drink outside of your Resort's Food Court's operating hours, I suggest filling your refillable mug right before bed and keeping it cool in your room's beverage cooler. Also, if you need it, you will have 24-hour access to the ice and vending machines on each floor of each building near the elevators.
I just spoke with a helpful Cast Member who informed me that while the room refurbishments at Disney's All-Star Movies and Music are complete, the refurbishments at Sports are still ongoing. She stated that a completion date has not yet been announced, so I suggest keeping an eye on
Disney's All-Star Sports Resort's webpage on the Walt Disney World website to see when the refurbishment may be complete. The way I can always tell if the room refurbishments have been completed is to click the "
Room Rates" tab and check out the photos of the rooms. If the photos show refurbished rooms, bibbidi bobbidi boo! The magical makeover is complete!
I hope this was helpful, Mandy, and happy planning! Please stop by any time with any questions you may have along the way. You've got a friend in me!
Chase the wind and touch the sky,
Mandy
