We have big news for our friends who love to stay on property at Disney World!
However, this news is particularly for those folks who want to stay on property but prefer to stay at the hotels that AREN’T owned and operated by Disney, one of the most popular being the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts. Despite the name, these hotels are owned by Marriott, not Disney! And while there are already tons of Disney World park perks for staying at these hotels, a NEW perk has been announced that coffee drinkers will love.
There are actually 3 hotels right in this area, which is within walking distance of EPCOT — we have the Swan hotel, Dolphin hotel, and the Swan Reserve. While the Swan and Dolphin hotels are quite similar in the type of stay you’ll have there, but there are different room types, the Swan Reserve is definitely more of a step up into more luxurious stays.
However, all THREE of these hotels now have a special new perk that guests will automatically receive when they book a stay here — guests can earn DOUBLE points at Starbucks locations around park property throughout the duration of your stay!
There’s one Starbucks location in each Disney World park and 2 located in Disney Springs, so you can get your coffee fix AND earn double points, helping you reach additional rewards quicker! This is because Starbucks has recently partnered with Marriott to give all guests staying at Marriott hotels participating in Marriott Bonvoy this special offer.
However, you will need to be both a Marriott Bonvoy and Starbucks member to take advantage of this offer, and you’ll need to link them together!
Learn more about this special offer here!
But that’s not the only special perk you’ll get when staying at the Swan, Dolphin, or Swan Reserve hotels! You’ll also receive:
- Complimentary transportation to Disney World parks (and to the TTC for Magic Kingdom)
- Early Entry into any theme park 30 minutes before regular opening time
- Extended Evening Hours (receive an extra 2 hours of park time after park close at select parks on certain days)
