From MK Monorail, How do I get to the Grand Floridian Spa?

[Escarabaja06]

I booked my Mom a Massage at the Grand Floridian Spa and I am taking her to the Magic Kingdom as well. I need to get from Magic Kingdom to the Grand Floridian, I can get on the Hotel Monorail and the get off at the Grand Floridian but after that I need help...

How do I get from the Monorail Stop at Grand Floridian to the Spa at the Grand Floridian?

Also, How much time does it take to get through all resorts to the Grand Floridian?
​

Thanks to all who answer! Happy Mother's Day!​

Why don't you take the boat? Before you go up the ramp to the monorail, is the dock for the boat. It's a nice ride. I'm not really sure how long it takes.

Just go to the main desk and ask. They won't look at you and say, the spa is for the people with money. If that were the case we'd be starving, we've had breakfast and dinner at 1900 Park fare at 6 times.:slurp:

I wouldn't be surprised if there were signs directing you to the spa, but I just checked out the map at allearsnet.com If the GF is the first stop, then when you get off the monorail, walk in the direction that the monorail is heading, which will be towards the Polynesian. It looks like the spa will be on your...if my mind's eye is correct, it'll be on your right, just past the tennis courts. The entrance to the wedding pavilion will be on the other side of the road.

While I'm sure the boat ride is lovely, it looks like the dock is about as far away as you can possibly get and still technically be on GF grounds. The monorail should be much faster. See for yourself

EDIT: It turns out I was wrong about the direction of the monorail. This is the order it apprently goes. MK--->Contemporary--->TTC--->Poly--->GF--->back to the MK. So if you take the monorail to the GF from the MK, you will be the last stop, not the first. It will still drop you off closer to the spa than the boat would (and when you get off the monorail, you need to walk AWAY from the direction the monorail is heading, not towards the direction), but if the boat & monorail are leaving around the same time, it might be quicker to take the boat (if you don't mind the walk).

One nice perk though, is that if you take the monorail, you'll probably see the spa on the left hand side as you approach the GF.

Yup, that's pretty much it. After you get off the monorail, go inside and around the balcony to the right. Go down the main staircase to the first floor. At the bottom, make a U-turn to exit out the doors behind the staircase. Then go across the courtyard to the walkway. By that point you should see signs for both the tennis courts and the spa & health club.
