GF Valet Parking Question

[jeweljayne]

Hi - We are driving to Disney in June (from WI )...it will be our first time at GF. Can someone explain a little about the valet parking at the resort? We are not planning on leaving the grounds for the 6 days we are there, so how much will it cost total? I read somewhere that it is $15 a day. Does that mean we pay $15 a day to park or just each day they have to park our car for us? Are we better off just parking in a lot by ourselves, or is it super far from the resort buildings? Thanks for any info!

It's $15 a day even if you leave it just parked. I would self park and spend the money elsewhere. Not sure how far it is from the rooms but if you aren't going to use it no need to pay to park.

I wouldn't pay to have valet parking personally, especially if you're leaving the car the whole time and not using it. To me, staying at Dinsey and not having to pay to park at the parks even saves $15/day.
Here's a map of the resort so you can see how far parking is. Even if you had to make a couple trips to the room, I don't think it would be bad.

Thanks for the info. For $15/day, we will definitely self-park.
