Dog-friendly resort policies & relief area maps

WDW Vacation Planning News

While no Disney Vacation Club properties are slated for inclusion, Walt Disney World has published guest guidelines and maps of "relief areas" for its four dog-friendly resorts. 

Disney's Yacht Club

Disney's Yacht Club Resort

Guests may now bring dogs to four Disney-operated resort hotels in Florida.  Fees of $50-75 per day apply, and guests are subject to a variety of restrictions including:



  • Dogs should not be left unattended in the guest room for more than seven hours
  • If dogs are disruptive to other guests, owners are required to address the problem within 30 minutes
  • Housekeeping services will not be provided without the owner present
  • Dogs are not permitted in food & beverage locations, pools, fitness centers, theme parks or other public areas

Dog Guidelines

Due to ADA guidelines, service animals are exempt from most of these restrictions and the additional fees.

Dogs are currently being accommodated at Disney's Art of Animation Resort, Disney's Ft. Wilderness Resort & Campground, Disney's Port Orleans Riverside and Disney's Yacht Club Resort.  Thus far, Disney has not given any indication that these policies may expand to any Disney Vacation Club resorts.
