I am pretty sure they are available there. Call the resort and make sure though since these things can change.

Maybe so that they don't have to pack it and bring it with them. Some kids need them even though they can swim well because the water is still too deep for them and not everyone is so in love with the water wing things.

Not a problem. I have a 5 year old who one day is queen of the world who doesn't need a life vest and one cannonball later is crying "LIFE VEST!" So opposed to packing one, I thought it would be better to check with those that know best.

Okay, that makes sense. If the resort doesn't have them, there is a Walgreen's less than a mile off property that carries that kind of stuff. To get there, travel in the direction of Downtown Disney. When you get to the intersection of [road you're on] and 535, turn right. Go about 3/4 mile (just guesstimating), and the Walgreens will be on your right.Ballsinc said:
Visual cues person (like me)? Here ya go then-
Go towards Downtown Disney, and pass DTD, but stay on the road. When you get to the light with the Crossroads shopping center in front of you, turn right. Go straight through two lights. At the third light you come to, Walgreens should be at about 1 or 2 o'clock.
If anyone sees errors with my directions, please correct them!

Clearly not because of the way your post was written to indicate that it would be for "medical reasons." And, if you are truly curious, there was no reason why you needed to jump on my post as if there couldn't be other reasons besides what the OP had to say.

I was using a medical reason as an example that I have heard of in the past. And I was implying that the reason YOU gave me is a perfectly reasonable explanation, as well.shoppingnut said:
Clearly, you didn't see that I was agreeing with the "call the resort" recommendation. I gave an alternative option, if the resort says that they don't have any life vests. There was no reason for you to jump down my throat. I could have become more defensive after your reply to my first post, because the phrasing made me read it as facetious and rude. I chose to re-interpret it as being an idea you were giving me as to another reason I may not have thought of.
GETTING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL POST-
Please excuse this petty bickering, Ballsinc, and I hope that it doesn't come down to using my directions. Enjoy your trip to WDW- maybe I'll see you while I'm working over the summer!

I know that I should not say anything, but I am trying to figure out why so many people on these boards today are fighting? I love to read all of your posts and I feel really bad when people start yelling at each other for posting in the wrong area or whatever. I believe a lot of people are like me and they tend to read all of the posts that truely interest them, not because they are listed in a certain area. I myself check the resorts, trip planning and cruise line site first and then I proceed to the new posts section. I love that some of you live so close to WDW. I am actually very jealous. I love Florida and hope to move there someday. Let us all take a deep breath and dream about WDW and all the great, magical things that happen there.

I think that sometimes it's very hard to infer someone's tone in a post.
I think that robynchic is a super sweet, nice person, who was really JUST curious about the need for a life vest:wave:
She has always been more than helpful to me, and has even gone out of her way to help me in booking my trip!

This is what they posted for the All star pools on All Ears.....
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Life vests for youngsters may be checked out of the Arcade for the length of your stay. Diapered children are required to wear swim diapers or rubber pants.[/FONT]
Now lets all shake hands and be friends again....

All resorts have life-vests available to sign out for the length of your stay. DS used one for our first three trips. They'll ask for a credit card or room key with charging option to "secure" the loan, but as I recall, there is no charge [or it's minimal].
