Disneys Yacht Club Resort

Disney's Yacht Club Resort





Disneys Yacht Club Resort welcomes guests into a sleek lobby that has polished hardwood floors, nautical inspired decorations, and glass encased ship models.





The resort offers easy access to Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios via walking or by the Friendship ferryboat that picks guests up at the loading dock behind the resort. Disneys Yacht Club shares amenities and services with the Beach Club. The Stormalong Bay Pool is considered to be the best that Disney has to offer. We very much enjoy everything that these two resorts have to offer.





Rooms at Disneys Yacht Club Resort



The rooms at Disneys Yacht Club resort have a nautical theme with blue and white spreads, headboards that have a ship's wheel motif and brass lamps. The rooms here have more of a casual elegance to them than those found at the nearby Beach Club resort.


The standard rooms at Disneys Yacht Club resort have about 380 square feet and have two queen beds and a daybed. Each room sleeps up to five people. The white furnishings make the room bright and cheerful.


Bathrooms have marble vanities with double sinks. Hairdryers and makeup mirrors are provided for your use as well as ironing boards and irons. The blue and white tile tub and shower area are separate from the sink area.


A variety of different sized suites are also available. The bed configuration allows sleeping space for up to 8 people. Regardless of size or floor location each suite receives concierge service and amenities.

Concierge level rooms are located on the top floor. These rooms are basically the same as standard rooms except these offer private check-in and check-out, turn down service each night and they have bathrobes for your use while staying in the room. The biggest benefit of booking a concierge level room is that it allows access to the Regatta Club. The club serves a continental breakfast, tea and midday snacks, and hot and cold appetizers in the evening. After dinner drinks and desserts are served later in the evening.

Stormalong Bay Pool at the Yacht Club Resort


Swimming - In my opinion, the Stormalong Bay pool that is located at the Yacht and Beach Club resorts is the best pool complex offered by any of the Disney resorts. It is more like a small water park rather than just a pool.





Stormalong Bay Slide

It has a 300 foot awesome slide that starts out from an old shipwreck located on the Beach of Crescent Lake. It also has a tidal whirlpool, a sandy bottom, a sand bar, a lazy river and several hot tubs.



Stormalong Bay Pool Sandbar


When the children were smaller, they enjoyed the sandy beach area where they could play in the sand and build castles. There is also a separate kiddie pool area for younger children. Now they enjoy the slide and the currents of the lazy river. Inter tubes can be rented for floating along the lazy river.



Tennis - A lighted tennis court is located on the Yacht Club side of the property. Equipment may be rented from the Bayside Marina.

Volleyball - a sandy volleyball court is located on the Beach Club side of the property near the beach front walkway. Balls are available from the Ship Shape Health Club.
