Do you need pool towels at Disney World?

I'm happy to tell you that most Disney Resorts Collection hotels provide complimentary towels at the pools, with the exception of Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort, for which you'll need to provide your own pool towels. You'll be able to find them neatly stacked in the Towel Issue Bins in the pool areas.

For most all attractions there, you'll even be able to wear them down the water slides. Do make sure they are true water shoes, however, as flip flops are not permitted on the water slides themselves.

Most hotels have towels on pool side, or just by where you go out. A handful don't, but they generally make that clear. If the pool isn't the hotel's only (eg it's shared with the hotel next door, or a gym that's open to the public), it's much more likely that you need to take one from your room.
