Hi everyone. We’ll be at Cabana Bay November 2-7 2026. We will be getting a resort refillable mug. My question is, would there be any financial savings if we brough back our cup from the last Cabana Bay trip and just had them reactivate it? I am pretty sure that we were told on our last visit that they could re-activate the mugs once you pay, but I’m curious if there’s any discount on re-activating an old mug vs buying a new one.
TL:DR does it cost less to reactivate a previously purchased mug for a week at Cabana Bay than it does to buy a new one?
Thanks!

According to this thread, there is a discount for reactivation vs. initial purchase. Not sure what the weekly price is, but from a web search it does appear that there is some amount of discount.

$20 for the initial purchase, $13 a day to reactivate and you could get a fill every 10 minutes.
You can bring back the same resort mug. You’ll save like $3 total. I have a collection of them because packing them isn’t worth the savings to me!

Thank you! We’re driving down (so space is not an issue) and would prefer not to add another mug to the already-overflowing collection so I’ll bring ours in November and be happy to save the $3. I’ll report back with the exact price in November! Thanks guys!
