Oh, great. You just got off the plane and unpacked everything inside your Disney World hotel…and you realized you forgot your allergy medication. It might not sound like a huge deal, but when your eyes are itchy, and you’re stuck without a solution, that missing medicine can really start to take a toll. What can you do?!
We don’t know about you, but when we’re on vacation, the LAST thing we want to do is waste precious vacation time going all the way to a pharmacy or grocery store. Well, if you find yourself in a pinch, one popular Disney World hotel has a GREAT solution!
Shh! You can find a CVS Pharmacy vending machine tucked away in a quiet corner of the Walt Disney World Swan Resort! To find it, keep going down the hall from Java. The prices seem pretty consistent with what you’d see at a typical pharmacy, so if you’re looking for a stick of deodorant or some medicine, maybe check here before hitting the hotel gift shop.
The vending machine has cold medicine, allergy relief medication, Ibuprofen, antacid tablets, razors, deodorant, and more! Plus, it’s open 24/7, so if the hotel gift shop is closed, you don’t have to wait until it reopens!
Speaking of hotel gift shops, we should mention that the Swan & Dolphin Resort is a little different. It’s not a standard Disney gift shop because, technically, this isn’t a Disney hotel! While the hotel is located right next to resorts like Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club and BoardWalk, the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort is actually NOT owned by Disney. The resort is a Marriott Hotel. (That means you can use and earn Marriott Bonvoy reward points, people!)
The good news is that it’s a Good Neighbor Resort, meaning you can get the same perks as those offered at a Disney World hotel.
