Walt Disney World is set to make some exciting changes regarding its valet parking service, with a transition planned to a new valet partner. For years, the resort collaborated with Bags, Inc. for its valet needs, but starting January 20, 2025, the service will be handed over to Towne Park. This shift reflects Disney World’s commitment to enhancing guest experience, ensuring that visitors receive top-tier services during their stay.

The new valet service will officially commence on January 20, 2025. Current valet parking prices are set at $44 per night, a rate that many find reasonable considering the convenience it provides. Guests will be eager to see how Towne Park will potentially improve upon the existing service and whether any changes to pricing will take place.

Several Disney hotels will feature the new valet parking service, including Deluxe Resorts, Deluxe Villas, and Coronado Springs. The availability of valet parking offers guests a more luxurious experience, allowing them to maximize their time enjoying the enchanting atmosphere of the resort rather than worrying about parking logistics.

Valet parking is primarily available at Disney’s Deluxe Resorts and Deluxe Villas. These high-end accommodations provide guests with an array of amenities along with the convenience of valet service. Staying in these resorts allows for a seamless vacation experience, where the guests can relax knowing their vehicle is in expert hands.

Interestingly, valet parking rates vary slightly at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin hotels. While the base price at many other resorts is $44 per night, these hotels usually charge a bit more. Despite the difference, the added comfort of valet service at such notable establishments enhances the overall guest experience.

Walt Disney World offers a myriad of transportation alternatives, making it easy for guests to navigate the sprawling resort.

Beyond valet parking, visitors can utilize personal vehicles, Uber, and Disney’s Minnie-Van service.

Additionally, the iconic Monorail offers quick access to both EPCOT and Magic Kingdom, while the Skyliner provides an efficient route for guests staying at certain hotels, specifically towards EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The resort’s extensive bus service continues to be a popular option, connecting guests to nearly every corner of the magical property.
