If you plan to stay at a Disney World hotel in 2025, you will want to consider getting a Disney Refillable Mug. These mugs can be purchased for the length of your stay and allow you to take advantage of UNLIMITED refills on fountain drinks, coffee, and tea from participating beverage locations at the Disney World hotels.

Disney Refillable Mugs

Whether you are looking for a caffeine boost in the morning or a refreshing drink after a long day at the parks, having a Disney Refillable Mug makes it easy to grab a drink at your hotel. However, as you are deciding whether you want to purchase a Disney Refillable Mug, you will want to know about these rules that Disney will be enforcing in 2025.

Disney Refillable Mugs can be purchased by hotel guests for free refills throughout their vacation! The refillable mugs are 16 oz insulated mugs that can be purchased or come with your Dining Plan at the Disney World hotels at the resort’s primary counter service location. But what are some of the rules you will want to know before you make the purchase? Here are seven rules that you need to know!

Valid for the Length of Your Stay (Up to 14 Days)

When you purchase your mug, it will be valid for the length of your stay, up to 14 days. The refillable mugs currently cost $22.99, which gives you unlimited refills during your stay for that one price. No need to pay for each day of your stay; one purchase will do the trick for up to 14 days.

There Are Certain Beverages You Can’t Fill Them With

While you can fill your mugs with almost any drink available at the quick service locations, there are a few exceptions. You won’t be able to fill your mug with milk, real fruit juice, or alcohol. Just something to be aware of before you purchase a refillable mug. We don’t want you to be looking forward to a cold glass of milk each morning only to find out you can’t actually get milk in your refillable mug. However, fountain drinks, coffee, and tea are all available for your mug!

You Must Wait Between Refills

We know, we know, we said they were unlimited refills. But, here’s the thing, they are pretty much limitless, BUT you do need to wait in between refills. Not a long time, though, just 2 minutes in between refills. While we know there may be times when you can chug a whole mug in less than two minutes, we have a feeling this restriction won’t affect you too much. The only time we usually notice it is when we accidentally fill up with the wrong thing or don’t fill our mug all the way up. And waiting for two minutes is definitely doable. So fill up your mug to your heart’s content (as long as you wait two minutes in between each refill)!

Can’t Be Refilled in the Parks

This is a HUGE one. Refillable mugs can ONLY be refilled at the Disney World hotels; they can’t be refilled in the Disney parks. You won’t be able to bring your mug to Magic Kingdom and get it refilled at a quick-service restaurant; it can only be refilled at a hotel. We want to make sure this is super clear because we don’t want you to be disappointed by trying to fill it up in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, or Disney’s Animal Kingdom. You can bring the mugs with you to the parks, but you won’t be able to get them refilled.

You Can Fill Up at Any Disney World Hotel

While they are only refillable at Disney World hotels, you can refill them at ANY Disney World hotel. It doesn’t matter if you are staying at the hotel or not. That means you can bring your mug with you to resort hop and fill up at the hotels as you are exploring. Or, if you are dining at a different hotel, you can bring your mug along for a post or pre-meal drink. As long as your mug is active, you can refill it at an Disney World hotel refill station.

The Water Parks Have Their Own Refillable Mug

Alright, we are going to add a bit of confusion here. While the Disney World theme parks do not offer any sort of refillable mug, the Disney water parks DO offer a refillable mug. You can grab a refillable mug at Disney’s Blizzard Beach or Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon. However, it differs from the one you purchase at the hotels, and the water park refillable mug only works at the water parks. As well, your hotel refillable mug only works at hotels and will not work at the water parks.

Yak and Yeti Used To Offer a Refillable Tumbler

And if you aren’t already confused enough, we have one more layer of confusion to add. There currently isn’t anywhere in the Disney World theme parks to get a refillable mug, but Yak & Yeti Local Food Cafes used to offer a refillable mug. The mug had a Yak & Yeti design and could be refilled for free all day, but only at Yak & Yeti Local Food Cafes. However, it became an issue that people were trying to get it refilled in other places in the park, so they ended up not making it refillable anymore. You can still purchase the tumbler, but you won’t be able to take advantage of free refills.
