The Walt Disney World Swan, Dolphin, and Swan Reserve are often called "official unofficial" Disney resorts. While they are owned by Tishman Hotel Corporation and MetLife and operated by Marriott, they occupy a unique category on Disney’s website as "Other Select Deluxe Hotels." In 2026, guests at these resorts enjoy nearly all the high-tier benefits of Disney-owned Deluxe resorts, including Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. They also share the same 7-day advance booking window for Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass. However, they lack Disney-level character theming in the rooms and do not participate in some specific Disney-owned promotions like the Disney Dining Plan. Located in the Crescent Lake area, they offer a prime location within walking distance of EPCOT and Hollywood Studios, providing a luxury experience often at a lower price point than Disney’s BoardWalk or Beach Club.
