Yes, I had no problem with them accepting it. Just be aware that you lose a chunk of money this way as they take the money then it has to be refunded. So have the resort fees as extra to your spending money

Even if you only use it for resort fees they may run a holding deposit maybe $1k then close it out after your stay. One of the reasons I now use a CC in USA rather than a debit (which I do prefer using - generally)

You could pay it all when you arrive ? Therefore they wont need to run a tab . This is where I went wrong in LA and they ran holding deposit PLUS the costs. Yeah holding deposit (a grey charge) came back to me after about a week but it really isnt something I wanted.

As MF mentioned, it's the holding deposit that's the main concern. But I have managed to get this waived in the past by declining room charges so it was just the resort fee to pay on check-in.

I always use a credit card though and treat it as if it's a debit card, i.e. nothing goes on it unless I already have the funds to pay.
