This should give you a great fireworks view!View attachment 290852 I do have a MK view, LOL.
The room is actually very nice as was breakfast at Fresh. We have evening FPs at AK so we’re taking this morning pretty slow.

Agreed.This should give you a great fireworks view!
Has anybody used the SPG Mobile Check In on their App? If you have used it, has it worked out well for you. I have made a few Room Requests and just wondering will they be taken into account if I use it, or would it be better to wait to Check In when we get to the Swan? We don't arrive there until around 8pm / 9pm in the evening.
Thanks for your help
Now that we are getting reports of Prime Now working... I'm wondering about Safeway grocery delivery. Do we think it's the same as Garden Grocer (not allowed)? Or if I'm present for pick up will it be allowed? I plan to be at the resort the whole day on check in day so it wouldn't be a problem.
Hello all!
Question - if we check out of our room at 11:00, but want to use the pool and resort in the afternoon, are there shower/changing facilities right there by the Grotto pool somewhere? We would be hanging out until needing to leave for Hoop Dee Doo at 3:00 or so and would want to clean up a little..

You didn't say which resort, although both have fitness centers--I have not used The Swan, but Dolphin has a great locker room with lockers, showers, electrical outlets, hair dryers, etc. We have often used that on our check out day--stow our bag in the lockers prior to check out, head to a park and return for a bit of pool time prior to heading home. We have also done that in reverse on check-in when our room was not yet ready. Works great!
Just back from our trip. Stayed one night on the front end of our trip at the Swan. LOVED the location and the walking distance to Epcot. We did one of the Christmas activity extras the Elf Tuck in. This was fantastic and well worth the money. We could see fireworks from Epcot and Hollywood Studios from our Room you had to stretch your neck a bit and be standing in a certain spot but honestly was still a treat we were not expecting. The cons there is really not quick service food available at the swan had to walk next door to the dolphin to get the kids a snack. I wish I hadn't walked to the Dolphin because Holy smokes that Lobby is stunning, they had live music, just a totally different vibe, and therefore made me a little disappointed I was in the Swan not the Dolphin. The other con for me is I had spent quite sometime saving up Disney Gift Cards to use for spending money on this trip so not being able to use them while I was at the swan was a negative for me but was something I did know ahead of time. Overall I think I would definitely stay there again if I could get a really good rate just for the proximity to Epcot.
Hey -
Is there a walking path STRAIGHT from Dolphin to BW / Epcot, or do you have to use the walkway over to swan, and walk through?
Keep in mind that a distant room in the Dolphin could be much further to the pools than the Swan.Closer to the main pool complex
YOu can walk but it would be a longer walk.Is there a walking path STRAIGHT from Dolphin to BW / Epcot, or do you have to use the walkway over to swan, and walk through?
We are headed to Disney at the end of the month and staying at the dolphin. Can I have a ton of gift cards to dinsey and want to do most of the eating in the parks. What is the closest and easiest place to eat from the entrance for the dolphin for breakfast? Or should I just eat at the hotel ?
Thanks
Thanks Dan, is there a best time to submit that? A few days before I assume or sooner?You can use this concierge request form to make room request. I always fill one out.
I've requested weeks ahead. I get a reply back indicating that my request has been received and noted and they will try to do my requests, with the customary 'no promises'.Thanks Dan, is there a best time to submit that? A few days before I assume or sooner?
