11 of the Best Disney Boardwalk Restaurants You Need To Eat At
posted by James Brockbank on August 8, 2022 // last updated on August 8, 2022
It should be no surprise that there’s no shortage of great eats at Disney, but Disney Boardwalk is something special. You’ll find plenty of different restaurants for every taste, style, and budget, from the casual to the luxurious.
Make sure to put these restaurants on your must-dine list the next time you and your family find yourself on Disney Boardwalk.
Ale & Compass
Belle vue lounge, boardwalk deli, pizza window, beaches & cream soda shop, big river grille & brewing works, boardwalk ice cream, trattoria al forno, cape may cafe, flying fish, abracadabar.
Ale & Compass is a cute and casual restaurant right in the heart of Disney’s Boardwalk inside the Yacht Club. You’ll find mouthwatering pub fare like burgers, fries, and salads, plus a bevy of beers and alcoholic beverages to quench your thirst. Plus, if you’re a DVC member, you can get up to ten percent off on any food order, with a few exceptions.
Visit Ale & Compass if you want to enjoy hearty food at a reasonable cost and wash it all down with an excellent pint.
Belle Vue Lounge is an excellent breakfast spot on Disney Boardwalk, featuring comfort-food favorites like eggs and pancakes. So, if you want to get a good meal in before visiting the parks, make sure that you check it out. It also opens at 7 a.m. so that early birds can get a good jump on their day before the crowds.
Belle Vue is also open for dinner at 5 p.m. for snacks and cocktails and is a great place to relax and unwind.
For delicious, fresh bread and treats, there is only one destination on Disney Boardwalk; Boardwalk Deli. This fine eatery serves up some of the best coffee in all of Disney, and you can grab your latte and muffin before exploring the parks.
If you are looking for a sit-down restaurant, Boardwalk Deli isn’t it. This place is strictly takeaway, but it’s a fresh and fun option for families on the go, and it opens bright and early at 7 a.m.
Pizza Window is a quick-stop lunch or dinner option for choosing between a few different slices and pies. They usually offer between two and three pizzas, and you can order it single-serve or as a whole pizza for the family.
The name of the game at Pizza Window is convenience. Suppose you are on the run and need something quick, predictably good, and fresh—just head to Pizza Window. Plus, pizza is a family favorite, so you will be able to satisfy everyone in your crowd.
This idyllic, lovely little old-school soda shop offers breakfast and dessert favorites like milkshakes and gigantic, towering sundaes. Beaches & Cream Soda Shop sits right between the Beach Club and Yacht Club. You can’t miss it, and you’ll be happy that you stopped in.
Try their old-fashioned malts, giant burgers, or authentic egg cream drinks for a true treat. If you are feeling extra-hungry and in the mood to share, the Kitchen Sink sundae is a colossal extravaganza full of ice cream and toppings. We dare you to finish it.
Big River Grille & Brewing Works is the spot to go for lunch, dinner, and a good pint. It’s a micro-brewery on Disney Boardwalk, featuring many different styles and tastes. So, get a flight of beers, or go for a towering pint of home-brewed magic. It’s your choice.
You will also find comfort food staples like meatloaf, macaroni and cheese, and massive plates of nachos to share. It’s a great place to chill out after a long and fun day at Disney.
What’s Disney without ice cream? Boardwalk Ice Cream offers classic towering scoops of ice cream and delicious homestyle desserts like brownies and strawberry shortcakes. It’s an excellent one-stop shop to cool off during the dog days of summer, and you can get delicious Disney-themed fare like Mickey Mouse sundaes customized to order.
Welcoming Trattoria al Forno has a bit of an upscale tavern vibe and a mouthwatering menu of stick-to-your-ribs favorites like pizza and steak. An Italian-themed eatery, this acclaimed eatery caters to both kids and adults, with grown-up dishes like Osso Buco and plenty of pizzas for the little ones. Plus, it’s reasonably priced for Disney.
Cape May Cafe is one of Beach Club’s best eateries with giant, succulent clams to simply die for. If you love seafood, you need to check out their fresh catch of the day, paired with luxe sides like macaroni & cheese and vegetables. If you are not a seafood lover, there are plenty of chicken fingers, burgers, and hot dogs on the menu.
For a more elegant experience on Disney Boardwalk, it has to be Flying Fish. At Flying Fish, the food is only one piece of the puzzle. Plating beautiful dishes takes huge precedence here, and you’ll want to Instagram everything that comes across your table. Try the steak or fresh catch of the day with some of Flying Fish’s signature sides.
Flying Fish tends to get super busy during holidays, and on the weekends, so you should make reservations in advance.
If you have kids, you should consider taking them to AbracadaBar. As the name suggests, AbracadaBar is where magic is on the menu and food. There’s also plenty of kid-friendly fare, including huge flatbread pizzas to share and fries.
If you have a bit more of a refined palate, sample the charcuterie board with meats and cheese from around the world or one of AbracadaBar’s artisan cocktails.
You certainly won’t go hungry next time you and your family find yourselves at Disney Boardwalk, especially with all the fantastic dining options at your fingertips. So, make sure that you visit one or more of these incredible sit-down restaurants or sweets shops on your next trip to Disney Boardwalk.
From fancy fare and fusion dishes featuring top-notch ingredients to kid-friendly cuisine, there’s something for everyone, all made fresh and up to Disney’s exacting standards.

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort Review (Is it worth it?)
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is one of the most beautiful and convenient hotels in all of Walt Disney World. With its classy design, enormous pool, and prime location, it’s easy to see why the Yacht Club at Disney World is such a highly sought after place to stay.
My family and I have visited numerous hotels on Disney property, but the Yacht Club always keeps us coming back for more. We love the close proximity to Disney’s Boardwalk, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios.
The multiple transportation options are a huge plus, especially for those who don’t like to solely rely on Disney buses. And of course we have to mention the Yacht Club’s pool, Stormalong Bay. This elaborate resort swimming area is arguably the best pool at the Walt Disney World Resort!
If you’re still not quite sold on the Yacht Club at Disney World or if you would like more information, continue reading below. In this post, we will cover everything you need to know about this deluxe Disney resort , including the activities, restaurants, and rooms available at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort.
(This post may contain affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of these links, I may receive a small compensation at no extra cost to you. Please see my disclosure policy at the bottom of this page for more details.)
Yacht Club Restaurants
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is full of all different types of restaurants. Since this hotel shares dining options with its sister resorts, you’ll find even more places to eat within a short walk of your room.
These are the Yacht Club restaurants you will find just a short stroll away:
- Ale and Compass – sit-down restaurant in the Yacht Club that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner (also available to-go)
- The Market at Ale and Compass – quick service restaurant at Yacht Club with to-go items and menu options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
- Yachtsman Steakhouse – fine dining restaurant at the Yacht Club that is open for dinner
- Crew’s Cup Lounge – bar at the Yacht Club that features a small dinner menu and full bar
- Cape May Cafe – offers a character meal breakfast buffet and sit-down dinner with no characters
- Beach Club Marketplace – features to-go items and menu options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
- Beaches and Cream – available for lunch and dinner with reservations highly recommended
- Martha’s Vineyard – offers appetizers and full bar
- Hurricane Hanna’s Waterside Bar and Grill – pool restaurant with full bar and lunch/dinner options
Furthermore, the Yacht Club is located just a short walk away from Disney’s Boardwalk , where you’ll find additional restaurants and bars.
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is home to the most popular pool on Disney property. It’s such a hit that you’ll find cast members handing out wristbands at the entrance so that only hotel guests can enter.
The main pool, Stormalong Bay, features a large sand bottom swimming area that’s super shallow and great for toddlers and little kids. There’s also a lazy river that’s a fan favorite in my household.
Guests can also enjoy other large swimming areas at Stormalong Bay, including an activities section where you’ll find games like pool volleyball. Stormalong Bay offers a large waterslide as well as a smaller slide that empties into a shallow pool.
In addition to Stormalong Bay, the Yacht Club in Disney World features a “quiet” pool that is seldom busy. This is a great spot to relax or swim laps.
Rooms
My family and I love the nautical decor and ambience of the Yacht Club guest rooms. Additionally, we appreciate that the rooms offer full balconies. In our post on Disney’s Beach Club vs Yacht Club , you’ll read about why these balconies are a major pro for Yacht Club compared to its sister resort.
Disney’s Yacht Club features standard rooms and club level rooms. If you book a room with Club Level benefits, you get access to the Regatta Club. Here, you’ll find food and beverages offered at certain times throughout the day.
Guest rooms at the Yacht Club come with views of the lake, pool, garden, or hotel rooftop/parking lot. These rooms typically feature 1 king bed or 2 queens. Some of them also offer a daybed. This means that if you book a room with 2 queens plus a daybed, you can sleep a family of five!
Prices at Yacht Club
Since Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is classified as a deluxe hotel at Disney World, you’ll notice that the prices are higher than at some of the other hotels. This is because the Yacht Club offers deluxe room space, extra amenities, and a prime location.
We will explain all the significance of all of these perks in more detail below, but it’s important to note that Disney’s Yacht Club truly offers a deluxe experience. The updated guest rooms feature plenty of space, including private balconies. Plus, the hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of other Disney hotels, restaurants, theme parks, and more.
If you would really like to experience the location, amenities, and entertainment at the Yacht Club without the hefty price tag, we suggest booking a room at the sister hotel through David’s Vacation Club Rentals. You will be blown away by the cost savings on David’s DVC rental site! We usually save hundreds of dollars per night by using this method to book a room at a deluxe resort.
Just use the cost calculator to see exactly how much a room costs at Yacht Club’s sister resort, Disney’s Beach Club Villas. These villas are located just a short walk away from the Yacht Club hotel, and they both share restaurants, pools, and activities. While you can reserve one of the villas on the official Disney website, we prefer to book through David’s DVC rental website . We have used this reputable company for years to rent timeshare points at Disney villas.
Things to Do at Disney’s Yacht Club
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort sits on the same property as two sister resorts: Disney’s Beach Club Resort and Disney’s Beach Club Villas. These three hotels share restaurants, activities, amenities, and entertainment options with each other.
One of my family’s favorite things about the Yacht Club is that you don’t need to leave the property to have fun. So, if you’re looking for activities at Disney outside of the theme parks, the Yacht Club offers lots of great options. These are our favorite things to do at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort when enjoying a relaxing day at Disney:
See Epcot Fireworks
We recommend walking to the bridge that connects the Disney Boardwalk to the Yacht and Beach Club Resort to enjoy the nightly Epcot fireworks show. You can even grab some ice cream to enjoy during the presentation.
Take a Ride on the Skyliner
Since the Disney Skyliner sits just outside of Epcot’s International Gateway entrance, you can easily access it from the Yacht Club Resort. Just take the short (less than ten minutes) walk toward Epcot and hop on the Skyliner for free!
Book a fishing excursion on Crescent Lake for a truly unique experience while staying at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort.
Eat Ice Cream
Disney’s Yacht Club is home to one of our favorite WDW restaurants, Beaches and Cream . While reservations can be difficult to snag at this popular dining spot, you can access the walk-up window to order shakes and ice cream to-go.
Dine with Characters
Check out Cape May Cafe during breakfast/brunch when it becomes Minnie’s Beach Bash. Guests can meet Goofy, Minnie, and Donald while they dine at the breakfast buffet.
Float along the Lazy River
The Beach Club’s main pool, Stormalong Bay, offers many fun features. One of our favorite things to do at the pool is to grab (free) tubes to float along the lazy river.
Play Games in the Arcade
Lafferty Place Arcade offers lots of fun games for kids and adults to enjoy. This is a particularly great place to spend time at Disney World when it’s raining.
Ride the Friendship Boats
The Disney water taxi picks up visitors near the Yacht Club. You can ride this free boat to the Disney Boardwalk, Swan and Dolphin Resorts, Epcot entrance, and Hollywood Studios entrance.
Build Sandcastles
Did you know that Stormalong Bay features a shallow, sand bottom pool and beach area? Kids love digging in the sand and splashing around in this section of the pool.
Make S’mores
Visit the nightly campfire to roast marshmallows during your visit. You can even purchase S’mores Kits for a few dollars.
Rent a Boat
Spend time on Crescent Lake on your own private pontoon boat. Guests can rent boats from the marina near the Yacht Club.
Disney’s Yacht Club offers a large fitness center for guests to use during their stay. Ship Shape Health Club is even open 24 hours a day, so you can squeeze in a workout at any time.
Stroll along the Disney Boardwalk
The Disney Boardwalk is full of amazing activities and entertainment options and is just a short walk away from the Yacht Club.
Play Volleyball
As you walk along the boardwalk in front of the Beach Club, you’ll notice a sand volleyball court. This is a great spot to pick up a game with friends or family. You can also often join a game of volleyball at Stormalong Bay Pool.
Enjoy an Evening Movie
Each evening, Disney Yacht Club guests can watch a movie under the stars. These family friendly movies are a great way to unwind after a long day.
Play Mini Golf
Stroll over to Fantasia Gardens and Miniature Golf Course where you’ll find two 18-hole courses. This fun spot is located near the Dolphin and Swan Resorts.
Swim Some Laps
If you’re looking for a quieter poolside experience to swim laps or relax, check out the leisure pool at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort. You’ll also have access to the quiet pools at Beach Club and Beach Club Villas.
If you’re not into running or jogging on vacation, you can spend time strolling along the jogging paths at the Yacht Club. You’ll find lots of great spots to take pictures and may even catch some surprises along the way.
Join a Kid Friendly Party at the Pool
Each afternoon, Stormalong Bay hosts fun poolside activities like hula hoop competitions and limbo.
Play Tennis
Guests can find tennis courts near the Yacht Club’s quiet pool.
Zoom Down Waterslides
Stormalong Bay features two separate water slides for guests to enjoy. The main waterslide stretches from the pirate ship and across the Beach Club boardwalk to the main pool.
You’ll also find a smaller slide that’s perfect for toddlers and small kids at the entrance to the main water slide.
Book a Fireworks Cruise
Take in the sights and sounds of the Epcot fireworks show from your pontoon boat on Crescent Lake.
Transportation
As mentioned above, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort sits in a prime location in the center of all the magic at WDW. If you’re planning to visit one of the theme parks, you’ll be happy to know that several of them are just a super short walk or ride away.
These are our preferred ways to get from Disney’s Yacht Club to other places in Walt Disney World:
- To Magic Kingdom – You can access the Disney buses in front of the hotel. The ride to Magic Kingdom should take 15-20 minutes.
- To Epcot – Exit the back of Yacht Club (toward Crescent Lake) and turn left. Epcot sits just under a ten minute walk away!
- To Hollywood Studios – You have several options for getting to Hollywood Studios. We find the quickest option *usually* is walking. Hollywood Studios sits just a 15 minute walk away from the Yacht Club. You can also ride a Friendship Boat to Hollywood Studios. However, by the time you wait on the boat to make stops, this method can take longer than walking. You could also walk toward Epcot to catch the Disney Skyliner. With this method, you should be able to reach Hollywood Studios in around 25 minutes.
- To Animal Kingdom – You can hop on one of the Disney buses to get to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park. This is roughly a ten-minute ride.
- To Disney’s Boardwalk – You can make the five-minute walk around Crescent Lake to easily reach the Disney Boardwalk. Guests can also take the Friendship Boat from the Yacht Club lighthouse and ride across the lake to the Boardwalk.
- To Disney Springs – You can take a bus to Disney Springs, which typically takes 15-20 minutes.
Is Disney’s Yacht Club Worth It?
Since Disney’s Yacht Club may be my personal favorite resort in all of WDW , I would definitely say it’s worth the cost! I love the classy guest rooms and bathrooms with their nautical decor.
The lobby seems to be quieter and calmer than that at other resorts, and the cast members are super friendly and helpful. My family and I enjoy the food at all the restaurants on site, and we appreciate the ability to easily walk from the Yacht Club to the Beach Club’s dining options.
The close proximity to Epcot makes the Yacht Club an ideal place to stay since there’s no rush to get to the park in the morning or back “home” at the end of a long day. Plus, you enter and exit through the International Gateway entrance to Epcot (near World Showcase), so the lines to enter are basically nonexistent.
Additionally, Disney’s Hollywood Studios is just a short walk, boat ride, or Skyliner ride away. And if you feel like venturing out, you can take the scenic stroll around Crescent Lake to the Disney Boardwalk.
Overall, we highly recommend the beautiful Yacht Club Resort! For additional information on Disney resorts, join the conversation on our Facebook page: Mom’s Guide to Disney Resorts ! Do you have a review of Disney’s Yacht Club Resort? Comment below to share your thoughts with us!

Disney’s Boardwalk Inn vs Yacht Club – The Best Resort?
So you’ve narrowed your Disney World Resort list down between two options: the Boardwalk Inn and the Yacht Club. But which one is the best option for you and your family?
Well, in this article, I’m going to let you know what each resort has to offer its guests, and outline some notable pros and cons of each hotel, as well. Hopefully, by the end of this article, you’ll walk away with a good idea of which resort won the battle of Disney’s Boardwalk Inn vs Yacht Club!
Boardwalk Inn vs Yacht Club
Let’s begin this by discussing resort type.
Resort Type
Both the Boardwalk Inn and Yacht Club are considered to be “ Deluxe Resorts ” by Disney’s standards. In short, this means they are considered to be in the best resort category when looking at resorts on Disney property.
As a deluxe guest, you will have access to early park hours, as well as extended park hours. This is one reason why some people will only stay at a deluxe resort. Besides that, the deluxe class of resorts are beautiful and offer great amenities and theming.
If you’ve narrowed your choices down to either Boardwalk or Yacht Club, chances are that you’ve decided you want to be close to Epcot.
Situated on Crescent Lake, both of these resorts are within walking distance to Epcot. You’ll also have easy access to the Skyliner that will get you to Hollywood Studios.
This is a great mode of travel, and you will have quick access to both parks. You can even take a longer stroll by walking directly to Hollywood Studios (though I do not recommend this).
However, for Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, you will have to rely on the bus to get you there from these resorts.
The location overall is fantastic for both options, with no real clear winner here.
Yacht Club Dining Options
As both of these resorts are walking distance to one another, I’m only going to focus on dining options that are contained within each resort. Bear in mind, though, that if you want to skip over to one of the other resorts restaurants, you can very easily do that.
We will start with the Yacht Club. Since the Yacht Club is connected to the Beach Club , I will also include some of those options here.
For casual dining with an American seafood bias, Ale & Compass is a great choice for breakfast or dinner. The prices are on the lower side of most upscale dining options, so this is a good restaurant that offers a lot of value for money.
Next door at then Beach Club, we have the beloved Beaches & Cream. This is a staple for many families that visit Disney World . This is your classic American diner food option, like cheeseburgers and French fries. They also offer many milkshake and sundae options, hence the “Cream” part of the name.
Crews Cup Lounge is a great place to cool off with a cocktail after a long day in the parks. This laid back bar lounge also serves up quick bites to eat with their tasty drinks.
The Yachtsman Steakhouse is one of the best Steakhouses on Walt Disney property. Le Cellier barely beats it out by my vote, but this steakhouse is fantastic signature dining. And it’s located right at the heart of the Yacht Club Resort. This is a must try if you are staying at the resort.
Boardwalk Inn Dining Options
Moving on over to Boardwalk Inn, we’re going to start with one of my favorite Italian restaurants — Trattoria al Forno. Here you can enjoy a character breakfast for the kids , and at dinner you will have a host of Italian options to choose from that are sure to please.
For a great quick service lunch option, look at the Pizza Window. The name implies exactly what you are going to get—hot pizza delivered to you at a window. Don’t let that fool you though, this pizza joint serves up a great slice of pie when you are pressed for time.
For a nice cocktail to wind down after a long day, look at making a trip over to AbracadaBar. This quick service bar harkens back to the magicians and illusionists from ages before. They have some really great drinks, and you can also grab a quick bite to eat if you are in a pinch.
For your signature dining at the Boardwalk, Big River Grille & Brewing Works offer a great entree paired with a huge beer selection. And yes, it’s actually a brewery! So you can get beer that you will not see anywhere else, and also eat a great steak in the process!
A quick tip for one of my favorite sugary treats: you can visit the Funnel Cake Cart and grab a hot, ready to eat Funnel cake. Make sure and add this to your list if you are staying at the Boardwalk!
I’m going to come right out and say it—Yacht Club (and Beach Club) have the best pool, in my humble opinion, on Disney Property.
Stormalong Bay is a 3 acre beachside pool area that sits in the middle of Yacht & Beach Club.
With 3 leisure pools and a sandy bottom beach pool, you will be hard pressed to find an area at Stormalong Bay where you can’t enjoy a relaxing moment to yourself.
Surrounding the pools is also a lazy river that will let you float around the whole 3 acre area while you sip your favorite cocktail that you can pick up at the beachside cabana.
To cap it all off, there is a 230’ waterslide that races you down from Crescent Lake to Stormalong Bay.
Though this contest is easily won by Yacht Club, we have to mention the pool over at the Boardwalk Inn.
The Luna Park Pool is a carnival themed water escape, with a 200 foot waterslide. Here, there are all sorts of statues that harken back to the 1920 amusement parks.
They also have a nearby lounge for refreshments.
I can’t mention the pool here and not bring up the crazy clown that looks like something directly out of a horror film. Thankfully Disney took notice, and removed the clown , so you don’t have to worry about him haunting your dreams, should you choose the Boardwalk Inn.
It’s hard to narrow down the price difference here, as the price points are ever changing throughout the year.
What I can say, however, is although they both go up and down depending on the season, the prices are usually relatively neck and neck.
So I don’t think it’s terribly important to put a lot of attention on this. If you are looking at these two resorts, the money you will save will be negligible, so the better option is to pick the best one for you and your family based on the other elements.
Yacht Club has relatively newly designed and revamped rooms. Though some people complain that it reminds them of a cramped cabin on a boat (which is part of the theme, hence “Yacht Club”) they are still spacious enough that you won’t feel too tightly packed in.
I think that feeling is generated mostly due to the low ceilings, but the room really shines everywhere else. Sporting a sleek and modern look, I suppose one could argue the rooms look too dark or modern . I find them personally to be in line with my tastes, and I enjoy the more updated designs.
Over at the Boardwalk Inn, they have some of the oldest rooms situated around Crescent Lake. With a serious lack of outlets, these rooms are not as functional as the ones you’ll find at Yacht Club.
The design is a bit old and outdated, though some people find them beautifully executed. You’ll have to be the judge here and check out the pictures for yourself.
Final Thoughts
This is an easy choice for me. If you haven’t figured it out by now, if I had to choose between these two deluxe resorts, I’d be putting my money toward the Yacht Club .
With the bonus addition of being a double resort connected to Beach Club, you also get access to the best pool on Disney Property along with some of the best signature dining options around.
And while I prefer Yacht Club in this Boardwalk Inn vs Yacht Club battle royale, this does’t mean that the Boardwalk Inn is the wrong choice for you and your family.

Disney Yacht Club vs Beach Club – what’s the difference?
W hen traveling to Walt Disney World, one of the first things you need to decide is where you’ll stay. But there are so many options, how do you choose?! We have so many posts about Disney resorts and choosing the right one . So, we decided to dive a little deeper into some of the resorts that guests sometimes have a hard time choosing between to help you find the right resort for you. Today we are comparing Disney’s Yacht Club vs Disney’s Beach. What’s the difference and which is right for you?
Disney Yacht and Beach Club
Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club are often considered one in the same. Which is easy to see why. But they’re actually different resorts, with different room types and different vibes. Yes, they share many things. Their famous pool complex, Stormalong Bay, is a big reason why many guests choose to stay here. Transportation is exactly the same as are many of their other amenities like the arcade, resort gym and Movies Under the Stars. Situated right next to each other, their lobby doors are no more than 5 minutes away from each other. Making it easy to enjoy all that both resorts have to offer when staying at either location.
So let’s take a quick look at each one and compare these two deluxe resorts at Disney World .
Disney’s Yacht Club
Disney’s Yacht Club is the series of gray buildings with the little red awnings on Disney’s Boardwalk. Known for a more upscale theme than its sister resort, the Beach Club, the Yacht Club is sometimes considered a bit stuffy. We don’t find that to be the case at all, but it definitely has a more high-end vibe than Beach Club. It’s themed to a New England Yacht Club, which makes sense that it would feel a bit more elite.
Yacht Club is home to Ale and Compass Restaurant and Yachtsman Steakhouse. And also has Ale and Compass Lounge and the Marketplace at Ale and Compass. Though guests staying at either resort can easily take advantage of the quick service and lounges at both resorts since they are so close together.
Disney’s Beach Club
Disney’s Beach Club Resort is the closest resort to Epcot Park. Located about a 5-minute walk from the International Gateway and the Skyliner, you just can’t get any closer. Known for its dreamy blue buildings and laid-back vibe, this resort tends to be a guest favorite. Disney’s Beach Club technically has beaches, and Yacht Club technically does not. But we don’t really consider that, as the beaches aren’t really resort specific, as anyone can use them, and they are still quite close to Yacht Club. Beach Club is also a DVC property, which means it has a lot of room types to offer. Standard rooms, along with studios and villas give guests a lot more options here.
Beach Club houses its main dining, Cape May right off the lobby. This is both a good thing and a not-so-great thing in our opinion. For guests visiting, it’s easy to find. Which is great! But generally, when the main restaurant is in a resort lobby at Disneyworld, we notice that the lobby tends to be more chaotic for guests staying there. And while anyone is welcome to visit any resort at Disney, resorts with popular restaurants on the main floor will almost always be more crowded than those without, or with their restaurants in a different location.
What’s the difference? Disney Yacht Club Vs Beach Club
First and foremost, the biggest difference between these two is the theming. They are generally about the same distance to Epcot. Though Beach Club is definitely closer, the amount is minimal. And since it is larger than Yacht Club, the location of your room can make a big difference in terms of how long it may actually take you to get to the Park Entrance.
Aside from this, the vibe and atmosphere is another determining factor. Beach Club is going to be more kid focused, with its character restaurant Cape May right in the lobby. And a more fun and whimsical theme. Yacht Club, though still good for families, is a more grown up feel and has no character meals that would draw families from outside of the resort.
One of the big differences we noticed between these two resorts is the room layouts. For their standard rooms, Yacht Club is set up with the beds in one area, and the ability to close off the area with the vanity, bathroom and shower. This is not the case with Beach Club. Their rooms don’t close off the vanity section, which is a bit odd and can make getting ready in the mornings a bit more difficult.
The things that are exactly the same between the two resorts are the bigger considerations, like the price, pool, food courts, location and transportation.
Yacht Club vs Beach Club: Which is best?
For us, Yacht Club feels like a more elevated experience and feels more “worth it” as a result. It’s quieter, in better upkeep and has better room layouts for its standard guest rooms. We like the food court here better than at Beach Club, as it offers more hot foods. Though the quick service restaurants at either resort are not super impressive, Yacht Club’s choices are better.
We love a laid-back vibe, but due to Beach Club’s closer location and having one of the best character breakfasts on Disney property , the lobby here can often get a little crowded and feel somewhat chaotic. The same goes for Christmastime when the Beach Club puts up their stunning Gingerbread Carousel for the holiday season at Disney . And unfortunately, the resort is in some serious need of TLC. The room layout at Beach Club was also not our favorite. And we think it has one of the worst quick service options at Disney. Which isn’t a big deal because you have easy access to food anywhere on Disney’s Boardwalk . But it also can be really inconvenient when you’re just trying to find food quickly.
As you can see, it all comes down to personal opinion. For many people, Beach Club takes the cake. For us, we think Yacht Club has a slight edge and will likely tend to choose it over Beach Club in the future. Do you have a favorite?

Yacht Club vs. BoardWalk Inn Disney World Resort Guide 2023
By Kim LaPaglia Leave a Comment
Planning a trip to Walt Disney World can be complicated — especially when you’re trying to choose between 25 resort hotels . If you’ve narrowed down your choices to these hotels, how do you make your final selection?
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
Well, we’re here to walk you through the differences between Disney’s Yacht Club Resort and Disney’s BoardWalk Inn .
Whether room size, location, pools, and/or restaurants are most important to you, we share the information that you’ll need to make an informed decision. After all, we want you to stay at the hotel that is best for your family!
Let’s get started and look at all the details so that you can plan your Disney trip with confidence.
Lobby at the Yacht Club
There’s no doubt that Disney vacations are expensive , and no one wants buyer’s remorse when it comes to what can usually be the most EXPENSIVE part of your Disney trip . The best way to tackle such a massive decision like this is with as much logic as possible, so we broke down this comparison into five categories: Common Ground, Theme/Rooms, Pools, Food, and Transportation .
Let’s get started on your vacation research.
COMMON GROUND
Before we mention their differences, let’s take a look at what Yacht Club and BoardWalk Inn have in common. First, both offer Deluxe Resort accommodations with a similar resort layout . You’ll discover luxurious amenities and unique themeing at both hotels. Plus, both boast many of the same perks . In addition, each offer the same convenient transportation options at an amazing Walt Disney World location. Both of these resorts feature nautical, seaside themes !
Disney’s Yacht Club Lobby
But, what about the prices? Well, this is where you’ll first see a difference. In fact, you’ll save a bit by opting for the Yacht Club . However, the most expensive rooms are large villas at BoardWalk Inn. The Disney Vacation Club (DVC) Villas can be booked by Disney Vacation Club members or cash-paying guests .
For the Yacht Club , that means that for the cheapest room at the cheapest time to visit, you can expect to pay around $537 per night (not accounting for any tax or current discounts), and it goes up to $3,877 per night (not accounting for any tax or current discounts) for the most expensive rooms at the most expensive time to visit.
For BoardWalk Inn , that means that for the cheapest room at the cheapest time to visit, you can expect to pay around $597 per night (not accounting for any tax or current discounts), and it goes up to $4,455 per night (not accounting for any tax or current discounts) for the most expensive rooms at the most expensive time to visit.
BoardWalk Lobby
Let’s dig a little deeper to see what you can get for the money at these resorts!

Theme/rooms.
These are not your standard hotels. Get ready to enjoy beautiful lakeside accommodations.
BoardWalk Deli
But whether your stay takes you to the sophisticated Yacht Club or the vintage BoardWalk, you’ll find that both of these options provide delightful Disney amenities .
Yacht Club Resort
Ahoy maties, straighten that ascot and slip on those boat shoes, you’re about to set sail into the Disney resort themed after the grand and sleek yachting clubs of New England. And no, Disney does not require that you own a yacht to stay here (phew, that’s one expense you won’t have to factor into your Disney trip!).
Yacht Club Lobby
This resort makes “subtle” look good. It’s sleek, elegant, and streamlined — like, well, a yacht. If you’re visiting Disney World for a business conference, this hotel might just be the right speed for you as it encompasses a rather executive vibe to it. There are some very nice, and perfectly adequate furnishings, but the rooms themselves just don’t scream lavish.
Our favorite touch in these otherwise “character-less” rooms are the curtains that feature fictional constellations inspired by some of our favorite Disney pals.
The Yacht Club renovated and updated the rooms in 2017 resulting in a more sophisticated appearance with dark woods, crisp whites, and deep navy blues. They definitely don’t have the personality that you can find at the Contemporary and Polynesian . So, if you’re looking for a room with some “character,” the Yacht Club may not be your jam. Note that standard rooms are about 381 sq. ft.
Why You Should Add Disney’s Yacht Club to Your Resort Hopping List Right NOW
Boardwalk inn.
Welcome to the charming turn-of-the-century Atlantic boardwalk themed resort, aptly named BoardWalk Inn. The BoardWalk brings in vibrant colors reminiscent of a seaside amusement park. In essence, the BoardWalk Inn balances the fun of the theme with the luxury of a deluxe resort.
Stroll the boardwalk!
The rooms last received a bit of a touch up and spruce back in 2016 and with the ongoing construction and other resort renovations may see some TLC, soon . We hope the room updates and renovations keep with the classic Disney charm we’ve come to love and aren’t watered down to look like other standard hotels. Standard rooms at 434 sq. ft. sleep five people.
Charming BoardWalk hallway!
Given the charming color palette and light fixtures in the updated hallways , we have high hopes for the new room decor!
So, this really could be down to what type of vibe you want on your vacation.
For cost, we give the edge to Yacht Club, however if a larger room is important to you, you’ll want to look closer at BoardWalk Inn. We’re giving a slight edge to Yacht Club right now due to the ongoing construction at BoardWalk Inn.
4 BIG Changes (Including New Restaurants) Announced for Disney’s BoardWalk
When the weather is HOT or you just need a break from park queues, head to your resort pool! After all, the pools have their own unique features and special theming. Feature pools at Walt Disney World hotels usually have at least one slide and also offer poolside activities. Look at the hotel’s recreation schedule for more information. These swimming spots are family-friendly with at least one whirlpool spa.
Pool Slide at BoardWalk
Note that poolside towels are always complimentary.
The Yacht Club may be understated when it comes to its lobby and resort rooms, but it is not to be outdone in the pool category. Disney’s Yacht Club shares a pool complex with its neighboring resort, the Beach Club, Stormalong Bay.
Stormalong Bay
Stormalong Bay is a destination on all its own . This pool complex is almost like its own mini-water park, with sand at the bottom and even a lazy river! Whether you take advantage of the ‘shipwrecked’ themed water slide or leisurely float around the lazy river, this pool delights guests of all ages.
Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Beach Club
Stormalong Bay is also nestled in close to Beaches and Cream , an iconic ice cream shop, providing over-the-top milkshakes, sundaes, and comfort junk food essentials like burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches.
The BoardWalk Inn has three pools — the main pool called Luna Park and two “leisure” pools for folks that are looking for more chill than thrill for their watery adventure.
Luna Park Pool
The Luna Park pool used to be the home of the clown water slide that lit up at night and may have caused an entire generation to need therapy. Luckily for you fine folks, you get to enjoy the renovated model of the Keister Coaster pool slide.
BoardWalk Inn Pool
Mickey, Minnie and Friends enjoy a pool adventure with you on this 200-foot-long slide.
This fun pool is 184,217 gallons and is just steps away from the amusements on the Boardwalk where you can easily grab a quick ice cream or margarita and then jump right back in the pool.
Both have relaxing pools with pool bars, lounge chairs, and splash areas. Again, it might boil down to just what your style is. Do you want to soak in a whimsical pool area? Or something a bit more coastal with sand and a lazy river?
Stormalong Bay Shipwreck Waterslide
Our heart leans towards the Yacht Club because that pool is just epic! Toes in the sand and relaxing down a lazy river with a shipwreck-themed water slide is our idea of a wonderful poolside escape.
10 Hidden Secrets About Disney World Pools
Because we are Disney FOOD Blog, we take food seriously. Very. Seriously. And we love it all. We love the cheap, comfort of plastic cheese , and we love the high-brow sophistication of a wine flight or a multi-course pre-fixe meal . We don’t discriminate; we are a lover of all foods. Since food is SO important, let’s see how these resorts stack up against each other in the restaurant category.
Hurricane Hanna’s is a pool bar, tucked under the Stormalong Bay waterslide, that provides fixes for your hunger without having to wander too far from the pool.
The Yacht Club is home to two lounges, one quick-service market, a table service option, and a Disney Signature dining restaurant . Not to mention its close proximity to Beach Club and all of those dining options.
The Market at Ale & Compass
For an ideal spot to relax with a nightcap while winding down in the evening, or to grab a bite or two from their substantial appetizer menu, head over to Ale & Compass Lounge . The Ale & Compass Lounge is one part of the Ale & Compass dining concept at the Yacht Club, which also includes The Market at Ale & Compass and the Ale & Compass Restaurant .
Ale & Compass Lounge
Located right next to Yachtsman Steakhouse at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort , the Crew’s Cup Lounge is a great place to get a bite and a drink in a relaxing, cozy atmosphere — and it’s a DFB favorite! In addition to specialty cocktails and a full bar , a robust food menu is served during evening hours as well, including a few full meals. During dinner hours at the Yachtsman, you’ll have a direct view through a glass window of steak being prepared for the steakhouse – so cool!
Crew’s Cup Lounge
Ale & Compass Restaurant is the table service component of the Ale & Market dining concept in Disney’s Yacht Club, which also includes The Market at Ale & Compass along with the refreshed Ale & Compass Lounge . The atmosphere offers a gastropub ambiance while comfort food (New England-inspired) is featured on the menu. A la carte options for breakfast include classic American breakfast fare, with a few twists like the Dark Chocolate Waffle and Salted Caramel-Apple French Toast, and a pastry buffet option may be paired with your choice of entree. Casual lunch options include Fish & Chips, burgers, and more. Dinner offerings feature specialties like the New England Seafood Pot Pie and Pappardelle pasta dishes, among others.
Ale and Compass Restaurant
The Market at Ale & Compass is a Counter Service location at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort . Simple convenience is the name of the game, with a focus on grab-and-go items. However, hot sandwiches, specialty desserts — and even a coffee bar — round out the options nicely. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner .
Yachtsman Steakhouse comes highly recommended by any discerning carnivore. The steaks here are some of the best on property , and the service is often excellent.
8-oz Filet Mignon
This craftsman-inspired dining room at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort caters to all tastebuds with a variety of dishes, incredible sides, and amazing, cut-in-house steaks.
Is The CHEESIEST Soup in Disney World Hiding at This Forgotten Restaurant?
The BoardWalk Inn has been updating and renovating many of the common areas including some of the dining options on the actual boardwalk. We’ve seen the rebranding of the BoardWalk Deli (formerly the BoardWalk Bakery ) and look forward to the new Cake Bake Shop . Inside the BoardWalk lobby, the fan-favorite Belle Vue Lounge reopened with new furnishings , that received some humdrum remarks from loyal guests for losing its charm and looking like it was furnished by Wayfair. And Carousel Coffee recently opened serving up pastries and Joffrey’s Coffee with a rather subdued vibe for a joint named after a bright and vivacious carnival attraction. Let’s take a look…
At AbracadaBar , according to the story, you can still feel the magic in the air at this former secret haunt of boardwalk magicians and entertainers … a group that mysteriously vanished over 70 years ago. Guests can experience their lingering magic in the sights, sounds, and even tastes (through the signature “Curious Cocktails”) in this enchanted lounge!
AbracadaBar
Atlantic Dance Hall is another bar on the BoardWalk. Looking for a place to get your groove on? Boogie down to music from the 80s through today at Atlantic Dance Hall! You can request your favorite music videos, and dance along as they play on the large screens above. Shake your groove thang, and get your dance on with a group of friends! Please note that Atlantic Dance Hall is limited to guests 21 and older and typically open Thursday through Sunday nights from 8PM to 1AM.
Atlantic Dance Hall
The Belle Vue Lounge is what many call a “rare find” at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn . Modeled after a 1930s sitting room , it has nice touches like board games and working radios playing shows from eras past. Tucked right off the main lobby, this lounge is a great place to relax and enjoy a drink after a long day at the parks. Guests can also stop here for coffee or pastries in the morning .
Belle Vue Lounge
Head to a real brewing factory at Big River Grille & Brewing Works ! Here you can sample many different kinds of beers, along with great burgers, steaks, nachos, and more . The floor-to-ceiling glass walls in the Big River Grille & Brewing Works restaurant provide a glimpse into the beer-making process. Watch while an on-site brew master crafts the establishment’s beers. Or sit outside and enjoy the BoardWalk atmosphere and water views.
Big River Grille & Brewing Works
Step back in time to a seaside boardwalk village on Crescent Lake where turn-of-the-century charm meets savory eats and sweet treats at the BoardWalk Deli . Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are offered, and guests enjoy items like house-baked bagels or a hand-piped cannoli.
BoardWalk Deli has pastries and sandwiches
Craving a cool treat while strolling along the Disney World BoardWalk? Then stop by BoardWalk Ice Cream ! This ice cream to-go store scoops up simple sundaes and cones made with Edy’s brand ice cream. The treats here are said to be inspired by the beloved Beaches & Cream Soda Shop at the nearby Beach Club Resort.
BoardWalk Ice Cream
BoardWalk Joe’s is a stand on Disney World’s BoardWalk that is known for ONE thing: “Marvelous Margaritas!” For a relatively small kiosk, there is a surprising variety of flavorful margaritas available — and sometimes you’ll happen upon a seasonal concoction! A selection of snacks such as pretzels and roasted nuts is also available. Non-alcoholic smoothies (including one made with Dole Whip!) are also on offer.
Boardwalk Joe’s
Stop by the Pizza Window on Disney World’s BoardWalk for a piping hot pizza pie! One of the most relaxing and fun things to do at Disney World is stroll along the Disney BoardWalk, taking in all the sights and smells around Crescent Lake. With 9,000 square feet of entertainment, shops, and restaurants, there are several options for a quick bite to eat. Why not grab some fresh pizza from the BoardWalk Pizza Window? They serve up whole pizza pies and pizza by the slice (and Sangria to go with it, for of-age guests, along with fountain drinks). Grab one of the cafe tables outside or stroll while you eat.
BoardWalk PIzza
If you happen to be walking down Disney World’s BoardWalk and you’re in the mood for a quick snack, be sure to stop at the BoardWalk To Go kiosk. At this kiosk you’ll find baskets of deep-fried treats including fried mac and cheese bites and corn dogs. You can even grab a meal combo built around a hot dog, cheeseburger, or pulled pork sandwich. (Note: BoardWalk To Go has permanently closed.)
Boardwalk To-Go
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is coming to Disney World’s BoardWalk in 2023! This new Table Service restaurant will serve items for brunch, lunch, and dinner featuring both sweet and savory menus . Afternoon tea service will be offered as well! And guess what? Guests will also be able to pop in for a quick treat by grabbing something to-go from the bakery case !

You can find Carousel Coffee at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. This spot is located right off the Resort’s lobby, making it a perfectly convenient spot for your pick-me-up cup! Coffee, tea, and pastries (including options by Joffrey’s Coffee) are on offer. Keep an eye out for seasonal drinks and unique options like a Dark Cherry Mocha Frozen Blended Coffee. As far as the eats, you can grab classic snacks such as the Vintage Mickey & Minnie Sugar Cookie, Banana Bread, Croissants, Muffins, NJ Crumb Cake, Bagels, and a Mickey Brownie.

Flying Fish is a signature restaurant that serves gourmet seafood to guests on Disney World’s BoardWalk. Many tout both the sea and land dishes here. (The Char-Crusted New York Strip is a favorite among landlubbers.) The location — complete with a lovely glass school of fish “swimming” above the main dining room — has an emphasized focus on seasonal, sustainable fare.

You’ll find a truly classic carnival treat on Disney World’s BoardWalk: Funnel Cake! The Funnel Cake Stand also serves the rather unexpected offering of Fried Ice Cream. Enjoy your “Tasty Sensations” (as the sign says) while you stroll or pull up a bench on the BoardWalk while watching the people go by! PLEASE NOTE: BoardWalk Funnel Cake is currently closed.

Do you love music from the 70′s, 80′s, and 90′s? Do you love dueling piano improv? Then Jellyrolls Dueling Piano Bar is the place for you! This raucous bar on Disney’s BoardWalk brings you non-stop dueling pianos and a drink special each night (the “Jellyroll of the Day”). So be thinking of your favorite Billy Joel, Mariah Carey, or Elton John song to request! There is a cover charge of $18.00 to enter Jellyrolls, which is typically open nightly from 7PM to 1:45AM. Doors open at 7PM, and entertainment starts at 8PM — it helps to be early to grab a seat!
Welcome to Leaping Horse Libations at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn! Out at the Luna Park Pool at this Deluxe Resort, you’ll find a poolside bar with all the basics you need for an afternoon in the sun — cold drinks, snacks, and even a few lunch items to get you through your Florida sun-and-pool afternoon! Look for fun carnival-themed drinks like the Tilt-A-Whirl and The Roller Coaster Meltdown served along with the standard Disney pool bar menu.

You’ll find Trattoria al Forno on Disney World’s BoardWalk . This eatery serves breakfast and dinner daily and is an “original Italian restaurant.” The dinner menu features regional specialties with classic preparations . Many of the ingredients are crafted in-house including hand-crafted mozzarella and handmade cavatelli. Trattoria al Forno also features seasonal risotto and serves only Italian wines.

So many amazing places to eat, how can you choose? Or you don’t have to, just systematically eat your way through the BoardWalk!
Click HERE to find our COMPLETE GUIDE TO EATING at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn!
Since both resorts are within an easy boat ride or walking distance from each other, the dining options can be enjoyed by guests of Yacht Club or BoardWalk Inn.
Disney’s BoardWalk
Still, we advise looking at the menus to see which resort has more food that appeals to your traveling party.
TRANSPORTATION
Do these resorts offer anything different when it comes to transportation? Let’s see!!
Yacht Club and BoardWalk Inn
Both hotels are considered “EPCOT-area” resort and sit on Crescent Lake, across the water from each other. These resorts are situated in between TWO Disney parks, EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. Yep, that’s right, you can walk or enjoy a relaxing boat ride on a Friendship Cruise boat to both EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
We love walking to EPCOT’s International Gateway. Not having to worry about fighting EPCOT’s post-fireworks crowds? Yes, sign us up, please.
Friendship Boat
If Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, or Disney Springs is your destination, then you can board one of Disney’s buses to transport you over to these parks.
And as if walkways, boats, and buses weren’t enough options for you, Yacht Club and BoardWalk guests are also within walking distance of the EPCOT Skyliner station . This means you have easy access to the other Skyliner resorts if you want to go exploring other resorts or just have a relaxing cruise through the sky.
It’s a tie!
HOW in the world do I get around the WORLD ?
The winner.
So, who is the ultimate winner in the Yacht Club vs. BoardWalk Inn battle? We hate to say it, but it depends ! You’ll need to decide which theme, dining, and pools, best suits your next vacation to Walt Disney World. Yacht Club standard rooms are smaller, however if cost is your biggest concern, staying here will save you money. If newer rooms is important, then Yacht Club has the edge in that category.
EPCOT Skyliner
The location and transportation options are awesome at both resorts!
DON'T DO IT ALONE!
Our favorite people over at Small World Vacations are ready to help you save time, headaches, and best of all, money, when you book your Disney trip or cruise.

Disney World Issues Strange Restriction, Takes Away Freedom
in Walt Disney World
Walt Disney World Resort may be a place where people come to experience the “Disney magic,” but an unexpected limitation has emerged, casting a shadow over “The Most Magical Place on Earth.”
Walt Disney World, the iconic destination that draws millions of visitors annually, has instituted a curious restriction, leaving guests questioning the rationale behind its decisions.
As spring break brings throngs of eager vacationers to the gates of Disney’s enchanting domains, one might expect the parks to extend their operating hours to accommodate the influx of guests. However, a peculiar discrepancy has arisen between the operating hours of Disney World in Florida and its counterpart, Disneyland, nestled on the west coast.
While Disneyland Park graciously extends its magic until the stroke of midnight and Disney California Adventure bids farewell at 10:00 p.m., the theme parks of Disney World shut their gates much earlier. Magic Kingdom, the quintessential symbol of Disney’s enchantment, closes at 10:00 p.m., followed by EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios at 9:00 p.m., and Disney’s Animal Kingdom at 7:00 p.m.
Same day, same spring break season, same theme park operator… different coasts. pic.twitter.com/I6X6k1HXDC — fka twenty one royal street (@_21royalstreet) March 20, 2024
The decision to curtail operating hours, particularly during peak seasons, has left many scratching their heads in bewilderment. With the vast resources and infrastructure at Disney World’s disposal, coupled with the staggering influx of visitors, one would assume that extending operating hours would be a feasible endeavor. Yet, the reality on the ground paints a different picture.
Delving deeper into the matter unveils two key factors contributing to this puzzling restriction. Firstly, Disney has introduced Disney After Hours events , scheduled on select nights at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. These exclusive gatherings promise guests shorter wait times for attractions, character greetings, and complimentary snacks, albeit at an additional cost.
Secondly, Disney typically offers Extended Evening Hours at either Magic Kingdom or EPCOT once per week exclusively for guests staying at Deluxe Disney Resorts. This limited-access perk grants resort guests the opportunity to savor the magic after regular closing hours, albeit at the expense of those not lodging at deluxe accommodations.
Participating Disney Resorts include Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, Disney’s Beach Club Resort, Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort – A Disney Vacation Club Resort, and Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts such as Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Boulder Ridge Villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Jambo House, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village, Disney’s Beach Club Villas, Disney’s BoardWalk Villas, Disney’s Old Key West Resort, Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, Disney’s Riviera Resort, and The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Additionally, other select hotels such as the Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel, Walt Disney World Swan Reserve, and Shades of Green on Walt Disney World Resort also offer accommodations for guests seeking a magical stay.
The introduction of these premium experiences highlights a shift in Disney’s approach toward guest satisfaction, intertwining the allure of exclusivity with the magic of the parks . However, this newfound emphasis on monetized extensions of park hours has drawn criticism from many Disney World guests.
For many visitors, the essence of Disney lies in its promise of inclusivity, where dreams are accessible to all who venture through its gates. The imposition of additional fees for extended park access runs counter to this ethos, erecting barriers that diminish the magic for those unable or unwilling to pay the premium. Furthermore, the disparity between the operating hours of Disney World and Disneyland exacerbates sentiments of discontent among patrons. As Disney park guests on the West Coast revel in extended park experiences, their counterparts in Florida find themselves facing early closures and limited options for nocturnal enchantment.
