There is a lot to think about when choosing where to stay on your next trip to Disney World.
You have to decide which type of hotel is best for you. While all three hotel tiers, Value, Moderate, and Deluxe, come with similar perks like Early Theme Park Entry, free transportation, and, starting in 2025, free water park entry on check-in day, you will need to find the hotel that fits your party’s needs the best. For example, if you are a fan of the resort refillable mugs, then there is one resort that reigns supreme if you are looking to get the best bang for your buck!
You can purchase a Resort Refillable Mug at any Disney World hotel quick service location for one flat price of $22.99. Once activated, your mug is good to use for 14 days at any resort. You can refill your mug with sodas, tea, coffee, hot cocoa, and water. If you are on the Disney Dining Plan, each person who is on the plan will receive a mug.
Now, these mugs can be really great, especially if you plan to spend a lot of time around your resort. They can not be filled in the theme parks, water parks (the water parks have their own refill program separate from the resort mug), and Disney Springs.
It can be a pain to refill these mugs as the refill stations are usually located in a central building that is not open 24/7. Some resorts are super spread out, and odds are you will not want to walk to the food court to refill your mug after a long day in the parks.
Purchasing a Resort Refillable Mug can be a way to mark the start of your Disney World vacation, and if you are looking for a way to get the most out of your mug, we suggest booking a stay at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort.
Just like most resorts, Caribbean Beach has its two central refill stations near their lobby and pool area at Centertown Market and Banana Cabana, but this is where it gets really good; they also have Coke Freestyle machines in the hotel buildings!
That is right! Rather than having to walk all the way to the front of the resort, you can now refill your mug within your building! The machines are located in buildings 25, 33, 34, 43, 52! If you are looking to get your coffee, tea, and hot cocoa, you will still have to take the trek on over to Centertown Market.
Plus, Caribbean Beach is conveniently the home of the Skyliner hub, giving you direct access to Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and all the Skyliner hotels! And it is home to one of our favorite spots to dine, Sebastian’s Bistro!
So, if you are looking for a resort with access to Skyliner transportation, good eats, and a ton of Rapid Refill stations, then look no further than Caribbean Beach! We hope that Disney starts to roll this style of layout to other resorts as this would really help justify the price of the Resort Refillable Mug.

No they started to add up in my cabinets at home and non one would use them at home.
They’re so over priced now too!
