We checked in today!
I did online check in. We got to the resort about 8am this morning. Right away they helped us with our bags and took them and stored us for us right from our car. I checked in at the front desk and waited maybe 10 minutes. I got keys so we could use the pool. She verified our request for fantasy tower and said that is where we would be.
We explored a bit. I am in LOVE!
We got some pastries and drinks at coffee house via mobile order. The chocolate croissant is delish.
The pool opened at 9am. The slides a little before 10. Only one slide is open. The yellow is not. We swam until around 1230-1. Around 11 I mobile ordered tangaroa Terrace and had our food by 1125. We got the wings, the long beans, kids chicken and the Hawaiian burger. The burger and the beans were a hit!
We basically had the pool to ourselves until around 1130.. really enjoyed the pool. I mean we spent almost 3 hours there today. I was worried when I saw it was 4ft as my daughter can't touch there, but she wore one of the disney provided life vests and they literally had a blast.
We used the restroom at the pool to change. Super convenient. And after we were done swimming our room wasn't ready so hubby took a bag with our wet things and bell hop added it to our stuff so we didn't have to keep carrying it.
We spent some time in DTD and then got the text our room was ready about 2:55pm. Mobile key worked perfect, we called bell hop and they brought all our stuff up. We have a lot of crap, including groceries so I tipped them good. We booked a standard room and are in fantasy tower but we can see the Matterhorn and Galaxy's edge from our room. The kids think that is cool.
So far we are big fans.
