We are back from our Disney vacation and I just wanted to say THANK YOU! The acccommodations at the Disney Beach Club were amazing. By reserving us a room on the 5th floor we had two dedicated concierges for just the 5th floor occupants, plus we had continental breakfast each morning, afternoon snacks, light hor devours with complimentary beer and wine at 5 p.m. and desserts with dessert liquors every night. It was amazing. The magic bands are actually pretty cool and that all worked out well.

Of course we also had an amazing time on the Disney Cruise! Such a great time, and I did want to say thank you for all of your efforts. They were very much appreciated.

Sincerely, Michaela
