The 3 Places to Refill Rapid Fill Mugs at Disney’s Beach and Yacht Club

If you plan a stay at Disney’s Beach Club or Yacht Club, you might have questions about Rapid Fill mugs. For starters, are they worth it? Then, you’ll want to know where and when you can refill them and what your drink options are.

Below, we’ll discuss all of these items in detail. We’ll also discuss how and where to purchase a refill mug and preview photos of each refill location. We have a photo of the current design below. However, note that designs change from time to time. Occasionally, additional designs are released for special celebrations, or seasonal options might be available during the holidays.

Bottom Line: Most guests who will drink five or more sodas, coffees, or tea at the resort during their stay can easily justify the cost of the mug.

How Rapid Fill Mugs Work

Upon arrival at the resort, you can pick up or purchase your mug at the resort’s quick service. If you’re staying at the Yacht Club Club, mugs are available at The Market at Ale and Compass. If you stay at Disney’s Beach Club, mugs can be purchased at Beach Club Marketplace. (You can also place a mobile order for Rapid Fill mugs at these locations.)

Rapid Fill mugs are usually near the register. If you’re on the Disney Dining Plan, a cast member will take your information and activate your mug, or you can purchase one, and they will activate it. The entire process only takes a few minutes.

Each mug has an RFID chip that is activated at the time of purchase. After activation, you can visit any resort beverage refill station. When you place the mug under the soda dispenser, you’ll usually hear a small magical tune that sounds like the waving of a wand. You’ll then be able to refill your mug.

However, you should remember not to pull your mug away until you’re satisfied with the refill. When you remove your mug from the station, the chip is reset, and it will not work for the next 2-3 minutes. This prevents guests from taking advantage of the system by turning around and filling extra cups.

In addition to sodas, some stations will have a Gold Peak Tea dispenser with sweet, unsweetened, and green tea options. All soda stations have ice and water. Joffrey’s coffee is available in caffeinated and decaf.

It is essential to note that the refill stations at these specific resorts (Beach and Yacht Club) usually close by 10:00 p.m. or 11:00 p.m. each evening. After they close, there is no way to access them. For example, if you visit Magic Kingdom and stay late one evening, you won’t have the option to refill your mug upon return to the resort. Also, both quick service locations have a mug wash sink near the drink dispenser.
