Laundry?

Do you take advantage of the laundry facilities while staying at a Disney resort?

We sure don't - vacation means no laundry and overpacking! LOL!

Depends on the length of the visit. If we are there more than four or five days, I HAVE to do laundry. We don't own that many clothes!

I'll pack seven pairs of shorts and ten shirts before I do a lick of laundry on vacation.

No laundry on vacation for me! I suppose if I was overseas for more than a week, but that's about it. Maybe I should go to Disneyland Paris to give it a try!

My wife and I have done laundry at both the Polynesian Resort and while on the Disney Cruise. Sometimes you just gotta wash your bathing suit.... why not throw in a few other things?

You only have 5 days of clothes? That's crazy. I can go at least two weeks if I took my wardrobe :)

The only time we do is when we stay at one of the "Home Away From Home" resorts, because the washer/dryer is in your room.

I've never been there that long - at most has always been 3 days for me. So I take more than enough underclothing..... but like you, I don't have that many clothing, so it's one per day plus one extra in case I get wet.... ;)

I've done laundry there before. Only while staying in Ft. Wilderness and in the Contemporary. It's not so bad if you are only doing one load... I usually do my swim suits and beach towels (Yes... I bring my own beach towels.. they are BIG & Fluffy!) and any clothing that I may buy there (gotta wash it before you wear it!). But I agree with Sockfire... Why not throw in a few other things.

Well that is a whole new game there - I stayed at Saratoga Springs in Jaunary 2006 and our one bedroom unit had laundry machines in the room - we did do laundry every night before we hit the sack - that was convenient and not such a big deal.

Regarding swimsuits...

Don't you folks shower after you get out of the pool? I always do, and I shower with my swimsuit. That's how it gets clean. What's with you folks using the washer at hotels for that? You're all fired!

Okayyyyyyyy......... I find that a washing machine can do a better job at washing the chlorine out of my swimsuit than I can. :p

I do the same thing at home, on vacation, at the gym - works great!

I reject this totally.
