Yes. One may be request prior to your stay or when you arrive.

What if they don’t have any available and I’ve requested one?

If a request is made and one is not available guests will receive a $15 per day credit to their room. The credit is to cover the cost of perishable items at the food court or for renting a mini-fridge from an offsite company. This credit will only be given if one is not available.

No. If there is a mini-fridge in your room when you arrive it will not be removed during your stay.

What if I need a refrigerator for medical reasons?

Guests staying in rooms without refrigerators that need them for medical reasons need to request one and have it noted that it’s for medical purposes.

Will all rooms have their refrigerators removed?

No. This doesn’t effect Disney Vacation Club resort rooms, Fort Wilderness cabins or Art of Animation family suites. All others resort rooms will have refrigerator removal.

Do you use the refrigerators in your room? What do you store in them? We’d love to hear how you use the mini-fridges.
