Get ready for a major transformation at Disney's Old Key West Resort! A recent announcement has revealed an extensive refurbishment plan that will revolutionize the guest experience.
The Key West Makeover: A Refreshing Twist
The resort is set for a comprehensive upgrade, but it's more than just a simple refresh. While soft goods like upholstery, bedding, and curtains will be replaced, Disney is taking it a step further. Kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms are all getting a complete overhaul, transforming the entire feel of the rooms.
But here's where it gets controversial... Disney hasn't confirmed if the popular Murphy beds will be making an appearance at Old Key West, despite their success at other resorts. Will this be a deal-breaker for some guests?
As of now, the start date for this refurbishment remains a mystery, with only a vague 2026 timeframe mentioned. The duration of the project is also unknown, leaving guests and enthusiasts alike eager for more details.
In other news, the possibility of a Skyliner connection at Old Key West was discussed, but attendees were met with a firm 'no' for the time being. The resort's proximity to Caribbean Beach, the main Skyliner hub, seems to be a factor in this decision.
And this is the part most people miss... Old Key West has recently welcomed back its water taxi service after an extensive refurbishment. The dock now boasts new decking and safety decals, ensuring a smooth and safe journey for guests. Last year, Disney began buying back Old Key West contracts, utilizing the Right of First Refusal, a move that has sparked curiosity among DVC fans.
