Is it true that you wont get your rooms until 4 pm or later? Our check in day at VGF was one of our resort days, we had planned on swimming and then getting ready for MNSSHP around 3pm...
Many years of stays. Most of the time we get our room before 1-2pm. Sometimes as early as 9-10am. Rarely (BWV I'm looking at you) we've had to wait until past 4pm.
That all said you can use the locker rooms and pool area prior to check in. That shouldn't be a problem. There are usually nice areas to change and such just for that. Hopefully you'll have great luck getting your room
I just booked a 2 day stay there. I'm hoping for better results than last time. It's a nice location, but our luck there is lousy.I love BWV, but now that I think about it, that is the only place where my rooms are not ready early in the day.
That’s a major bummer. I’m curious as to how you had done the check in process. Was it at the front desk or did you use the option in the MDE app? I ask because I was a bit surprised when I did the online check-in with the app that I had to re-enter my mobile number. This company probably knows more information about my life than I do so this struck me as odd. Anyway, just a thought that for the check-in notifications, perhaps it’s a one shot deal; sorta like checking in at a restaurant and they text you when the table is ready but they wouldn’t know your number for a future visit.Stayed at Saratoga Springs and never did get a text. Luckily we were spending time shopping at Disney Springs. Went back to the resort around 4:00 and still had to wait around 20 minuets

Anyway, hopefully things go smoother next time .
Maybe in case your number has changed?
I don’t know, I never get texts because they’ll only text to a US mobile number. I only found that out when I read it on Mouseowners! Never thought to ask the CMs why we didn’t get one...
Pretty sure my sister checked in on line. When we got there around 10:30 we asked if our room was ready and they double checked my sister’s phone number. Switched over to Boardwalk two days later and our room was ready by noon and our luggage was there waiting for us.That’s a major bummer. I’m curious as to how you had done the check in process.
