Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin

“Every time I leave the Swan, I just want to go back!”

We had our second stay at the Swan in late July. In March, we stayed at the Dolphin. Both great. I love the smaller feel of the Swan, and their rooms are so nice. The lobby smells amazing. The bath and body products are a delight. (The Dolphin’s have a manly scent.) Wonderful service and housekeeping everyday. My 10 year old loves the Grotto pool. We haven’t ordered poolside service but have enjoyed the restaurant over by the Grotto pool a few times. We were traveling with friends. We had separate reservations and check in days and the hotel honored my request for our rooms to be placed near each other. 3 doors down. Got upgraded to a balcony with a view of the boat path to HS. Our room overlooked a little courtyard with fairy lights in the trees - So peaceful and beautiful. We were on 5th floor and could see a lot of the Epcot fireworks. Location can’t be beat for going over and dining at the Beach Club. We love to take the boat to HS and resort hop using the busses there. So fun to walk along the Boardwalk and ride the skyliner to enjoy the dining at the Riviera. Something I consider staying at other Disney resorts, but the price point of the Swan, the location, the atmosphere, and service can’t be beat. The only downside is their quick service dining is not great- limited options and pricey. However, there’s a new quick service location opening on the Boardwalk soon so hopefully it has good variety and kid’s meals.
