We're taking the kids down there with my parents next month, and we have a 2 bedroom villa at Old Key West.
I'm wondering if there is any kind of sundry/grocery store onsite? My DD is 2.5 and still in diapers. I'd hate to have to bring them down with me.
I'm also wondering about being able to buy some simple breakfast things to keep in the room, so we don't have to go out every day.
Anyone been there?
I'd love some tips! This is our first time taking the kids (2.5 and 4.5) down.
Thanks MartyMOMMA! Just set up our delivery. :)

I don't know anything about Disney's Old Key West, but when my two older daughters were younger and we went to Disney, we stayed at the resort with the movie themes (Dalmations) and we kept a cooler in the room with a half gallon of milk, juice boxes, bottles of water as there was no small refrigerator in the room which we stayed. The resort we stayed at did not have any grocery stores but there were many food courts to choose from and leaving the resort to go to a restaurant outside of the resort was something we did to avoid the overpriced foods in the food courts anyway. You might call the resort and ask what they have on site.
M., We've stayed at Old Key West 3 times, and probably won't ever stay at any other location, we love it!!
Yes there is a store. The front of the store is Dinsey merchandise, (toys, shirts, etc.) but the back of the store is a small grocery store. You can buy breakfast items like frozen waffles, bagels, and cereal. They have bread and peanut butter, we weren't looking for it, but I'm sure you could get deli meat of some kind. I think they even have things like frozen entree's like lasagna.
I'm sure they'll have diapers, perhaps not the brand you are used to using, but I'm sure they'll have them. One thing you might consider is taking a supply of diapers with you, if you needed a few more you could always buy them. Yes, they'll take up space in the suitcases, but if you are like us you buy things like shirts and such and you have more to take home than you brought.
Have fun!

Hi, M.. We just returned from Old Key West on Jan 1st. You will have a great time. We had a two bedroom, two bath villa, the living room also had a sofa and chair that folded out into beds. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full size fridge. Another great thing for us anyway...the villa had a washer & dryer so if you don't mind doing laundry while on vacation it meant we didn't have to pack quite as much.
I haven't read the other responses, sorry if I duplicate. Yes, there is a small store that has great Disney souvieners & towards the back of the store there are the basics for breakfast + some frozen foods + snacks, etc. I honestly don't recall seeing diapers there. The store is attached to Olivia's, a nice little restaurant. All the people working in Olivia's & the gift shop were very friendly.
Be sure to stop at the small walk-up fast food type place..I forget the name of it..but you'll get free Disney mugs that you can re-fill also free on Old Key West. It also had muffins, breakfast sandwiches and snacks.
We had a great time & I know you will too! I wish we could have stayed!!
