I Spent $300 For This Disney World Perk. 10/10 Would Recommend!

If you’re planning a trip to Disney World, you might want to know if you’ll get any special perks for staying at a Disney-owned hotel (or other select hotels in the Disney World area).

Swan & Dolphin

The answer is YES! One of the best Disney World hotel perks right now is Early Theme Park Entry, which gets you into the theme parks 30 minutes before everyone else. However, if you stay at a deluxe Disney World resort, you also get Extended Evening Hours, which gives you several extra hours in the theme parks at the end of the day that the general public doesn’t get. Well, you don’t HAVE to pay Disney World deluxe hotel prices to get this perk.

Instead, you can book a stay at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin, which can run you as low as $300 (or sometimes less) per night, considerably less than Disney World’s deluxe hotels. Granted, that price could change, depending on when you book your stay, but with a little careful planning, you can grab a room at the lower rates.

The best part of booking this hotel, though, is that you still get all the same perks that Disney World deluxe hotels get, meaning you can take advantage of both Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Hours. Not only that, but you get the same perks you get at other Disney World hotels, including free transportation to the parks.

That’s not all, though. The Swan and Dolphin are also owned by Marriott, so if you are a member of the Marriott Bonvoy Rewards program, you can earn points when you stay there. You can also USE Mariott Bonvoy rewards points to book a stay there, which could save you even MORE money. So you get a deluxe hotel for a lot less either way. That’s a win, right?

But wait, there’s more! Yes, we sound like a TV commercial, but there really are a lot of great reasons to stay at this hotel. So, one of our favorite things about the Swan and Dolphin is the location. It’s located within the area of the other EPCOT resort hotels, meaning you have access to all those hotels’ restaurants and shopping! However, you’ll find some great dining on-site, too, including Shula’s Steakhouse, the very underrated Todd English’s bluezoo, Rosa Mexicano, and more.

You can also walk to EPCOT from the Swan and Dolphin via International Gateway, which means you also have easy access to the EPCOT Skyliner station to get to Hollywood Studios and other Skyliner hotels. Like we said, the location can’t be beat!

So if you’re looking to get Disney World deluxe hotel perks without paying Disney World deluxe hotel prices, you might want to consider booking a stay at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin.
