Just last week, we shared that Santa Claus would be coming to Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort as part of the new Santa’s Village experience. And now, the resort has started decorating to prepare for the festivities!
We’ve seen holiday decorations all around Walt Disney World, including several of the resorts and all four of the theme parks, but we still get excited when we see MORE Christmas trees! Walking around Disney and seeing everything decked out makes the holidays even more magical.
So, what seasonal decorations have arrived at Swan and Dolphin Resort? Let’s start at the Dolphin, where we first noticed this classically decorated large Christmas tree! We love the color scheme of red, green, and silver.
Other decorations around the lobby kept with the classic theme like the wreaths hung on the walls.
We also spotted this smaller tree, standing proud on top of a Christmas gift!
They literally greeted up with Christmas decorations as soon as we arrived — there was a tree in the entryway!
Altogether, everything looks very elegant. This would definitely be a place we’d want to spend our vacation if we were in the mood for a classy vibe.
Over at the Swan, the decorations focused more on a metallic color scheme that gave the resort a “fancy” feel.
There were a ton of Christmas trees — in fact, we were greeted with several as soon as we entered the lobby!
One of our favorite touches was the festive bows on the swan fountain. The wreaths and the floral accents on the sconces bring the whole look together!
The decorations around this resort have us feeling the spirit of the season!
Checking out all the holiday decorations has been one of our favorite things to experience in Disney World the last few weeks! Keep checking DFB for the latest updates on all the holiday happenings, including decorations, entertainment, and food!
