    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    We are heading to the Dolphin next week, if I remember correctly the rooms do not have microwaves? I just wanted to confirm since it’s been a few years since we’ve stayed there. I’m trying to plan quick and easy meals for the kids to have in our room.

    New Mom Advice Needed!!! Formula Feeding in Disney!

    I brought a bottle brush and little container of dish soap to wash the bottles every night. If you do use the ready to feed formula make sure you try it out before the trip. My son couldn't tolerate them at all, even though we bought the same brand as the powdered formula we used. We used...

    ROL with young kids?

    We took our 2 and 4 year olds last week. I fully expected the 2 year old to lose interest, so I sat on the end of a row so I could exit quickly with her, but both kids ended up loving the show and we stayed the whole time. The only difficult part was waiting for the show to start. We did the...

    Sleeping arrangement for 2 yr old and infant

    We used a Baby's Best Friend. They deliver the crib to your resort and pick it up at the end of your stay. We've used them at least 4 times between our two kids and always have had a positive experience.

    At that age I put the baby in the pack n play and rented a crib for the 2 year old. It was totally worth the cost and he slept great.

    Panicking - Booked trip for November, just found out wife is pregnant

    We took our daughter when she was 8 weeks old, and our son was 2 years old, and we had a great trip. I checked with her pediatrician beforehand and she was fine with us taking her. I mostly wore her in a carrier around the parks. The part that made me the most nervous was the plane ride, but...

    Help with a pirate plan

    Yes, Peter is waiting at the end of the cruise. I went back and forth about bringing our 3 year old since he's typically in bed by 7:30 at home, but he absolutely loved it, it was the highlight of our trip. We've been home a month and he's still talking about it.

    Last Minute Trip

    We recently did a last minute trip too, and I'm such a planner like you. We ended up staying at the Swan for the first time. It had a deluxe feel, but the price was more in the moderate range. We loved being able to walk to Epcot and HS. I'm usually making ADRs at the 180 day mark, but we got...

    Tell me your must have item with a baby

    I loved the disposable place mats that stick to the table. We also used the take and toss spoons. When we stayed at port Orleans we put the crib behind the curtain in the sink area. In other rooms we have put the crib against a wall and used a sound machine to help drown out any noise we would...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    We also had a similar problem when we checked out two weeks ago. The woman asked me during check in if we had a car and I told her we didn't. When we got our invoice the morning we checked out we had been charged $18 a day for parking. The front desk was happy to help take the charges off. I'm...

    Major disappointment - pirates and pals wishes voyage

    My husband and son did it last week and loved it. They knew going in that they would just be served snacks. My son keeps asking to do it again and my husband said he definitely wants to do it again next trip. They thought the interactions with the characters were great, and they had a wonderful...

    Is 6 Months Old Too Young??

    We took our son at 6 months and it was one of our favorite trips. My husband and I are also huge Disney fans and go often. When we brought our son for the first time we slowed our pace down a bit, but had a great time. He's 3 now and loves to look at the pins we bought for him on the trip when...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I'm staying at the Swan using my annual pass discount. They told me I need to present my annual pass upon check in. Does anyone know if I have to activate the pass first, or if they'll accept the voucher I received in the mail?
