I just did a back to back stay at Swan last week, half on points and half cash. Never thought to contact the hotel ahead of time! When I checked in, I explained that I had 2 reservations and why (they were even 2 different room types) and the very nice FDA was able to link the reservations and I was able to stay in the same room.Thanks for all your replies! Much appreciated! I contacted the hotel via email and gave them my 2 conf #'s and this was their response!! I am bummed I will not be able to make my dining all at once but the other benefits of staying at the Swan definitely outweigh that!

@gottalovepluto I didn't realize their is a shuttle from the car care center!! Do I need to schedule that in advance? Thanks
Good Afternoon Ms. Simon,
I have linked your reservations together and put notes that you have back to back reservations with us to ensure that you will be in the same room during the full length of stay with us.
Please let us know if you have any further requests!

I was told you need to stop by the front desk and get a new room key on your check out check back day, SwanI just did a back to back stay at Swan last week, half on points and half cash.

I did a chat on the app on my first check out day and they did check me out and check me back in. Very seamless.
Nope, my same key worked for both reservations.I was told you need to stop by the front desk and get a new room key on your check out check back day, Swan
I'll post a follow-up later this weekNope, my same key worked for both reservations.
I stayed on 2 free night certificates in December, don't think I got a new room key but did have to go down to the front desk to check out/check in.Nope, my same key worked for both reservations.
Yes they do. See bell service in the morning.Heading down to the Swan for Memorial Day weekend and doing a split stay with Boulder Ridge. Does the Swan still offer luggage transfer to the Disney resorts?
Early and late hours are the same as Boardwalk. Transportation from the Swan is no longer on a Disney bus, and that matters for the Magic Kingdom. She would be dropped off at the Ticket and Trans. Center. It would be easy for her to walk over to Boardwalk and take the bus with you.Me, wife and kids are staying for a week in Boardwalk. My mother is going to come down mid week and is going to stay at Swan. Is there any downside to this as far as reservations? Transportation? Early hours? Late hours? Anything else I may not be thinking of?
Common actually. A Swolphin specialty is randomly dropping your linked Disney reservation, it loves to drop especially right after you check inJust read about someone staying at the Swan and they couldn’t get a LLI$ because the system wouldn’t recognize them as being onsite. Do log into your app AND on the website to make sure your hotel shows up.

1. YesI’m sure these questions have been asked a million times on here but I can’t sort through all the posts
1. Do you get the 60+10 dining reservation perk the same as you would if you booked any other onsite Disney property
2. Curious about the cabana rentals, do people seem to think they’re worth it? Is it hard otherwise to get poolside chairs/lounges
3. What is the walking distance between the swan/dolphin? Is it really a fluid distance for easy access to restaurants in both?
4. If you booked directly through Disney did you still have to pay daily resort fees?
Thanks

1. Yes, as long as you link your reservation.
2. The walk is short. The walk from your room to the hotel entrance is the wild card
3. I don't know. COSTCO specifically says resort fee included. Id assume it's not included unless otherwise stated
