Beach Club Resort

 

Disney Beach Club Resort

Disney Beach Club Resort is located within walking distance to the back gates of Epcot.  It is one of my favorite locations because it is so close to Epcot, Hollywood Studios, the Skyliner, and across the water from the Boardwalk.  It is a very convenient location.  If you want to be near Epcot (which you really should during Food and Wine Festival),  this is a great spot.  We were able to enter early because we were staying at a Disney resort and went straight to Ratatouille.  It was a great way to get to ride it without having to pay extra for it.  We were on the ride within 20 minutes of the opening of the park.  This resort has wonderful food options, an ice cream shop, a fun pool, and beautiful theming.

When you enter the room, you will see the bathroom to one side and the closet on the other.  The closet is a nice size and holds the safe.

Are you a fan of coffee?  You will also find a Keurig next to the closet and a refrigerator under it.

One thing I loved about these bathrooms is that with a family of four, you could have some people using the sink while someone else was in the shower.  It felt very clean and bright.

Who doesn't love a little extra Disney magic?           

Two queen beds were perfect for our family.

This is the view from our room.  It was categorized as a water view room.  Not all rooms have a balcony but I did put down as my preference that I wanted a balcony room.  When my kids were little, I always preferred a balcony because my husband and I had somewhere to sit at night when the littles were asleep.  Now, the kids are up as late as us (if not longer!) so it doesn't matter.  I do still love sitting out on the balcony at night and relaxing.

The pool area is very big and has lots of different places to hang out.  There are pools, sandy areas, lounging areas, food, and drinks.  We had an overcast day when we were there, but it was still nice to relax for a little during the day.  There are also "quiet" pools around the property that are smaller but more quaint.

This is the view across from the Beach Club.  You are looking at the Boardwalk, which is another one of my Disney favorites.  It has fun entertainment, good food, and a quick walk from the Beach Club.  I love their pizza walk up window!  This dock is also where you would get on the water taxi that would take you to Hollywood Studios.  The water taxi goes to the Boardwalk, Beach Club, Swan and Dolphin, and Hollywood Studios.  It is a great way to get transportation there.  You can also walk to Hollywood Studios but it would be about a 20 minute walk.
