Disney's Beach Club Resort

It’s absolutely beautiful Food is great Very clean and the staff is wonderful

Staff great, food was nice, amenities all seem really good, a very nice holiday which we’ve all enjoyed. The kids met a lot of friends at the pool, most people here seem very nice and laid back. The closeness to all the parks is great. I would have passed a 5 star review but I think it’s just lacking a bit of cleanliness.

We recently stayed at the Disney's Beach Club Resort for 9 days and 8 nights. It was the best resort by far that we have stayed in during a Disney vacation. The pool is amazing, the staff are very accommodating, friendly, and helpful at all times, the restaurants on-site are great and even include a character dining experience. The best part for our family is the resort is within a short walking distance to EPCOT, and a short boat ride to Hollywood Studios. For Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom, there are buses for transportation which only serve the Beach Club and Yacht Club so there is never a long wait.

TL;DR Good hotel, great pool, and good food though very noisy and rooms bright at night. Noise If peace and quiet, especially at early hours of the morning, is what you are after, this resort is NOT for you. There is absolutely zero soundproofing between the doors and the room resulting in you being able to hear 100% of corridor conversations taking place around your room - and people in this resort love to talk or make loud, unnecessary noise in the corridors rather than their rooms. I didn’t sleep well once for the entirety of my stay here, with a big contributing factor to that being the loud noise from the corridor outside the room. Room Aside from the noise issue mentioned above, the rooms are ok. Nice and clean, for the most part, with a mixture of full and juliet balconies. You can’t book a specific type of balcony but can make a request for one when you check-in online or through the MyDisneyExperience app. We stayed in a resort view room with a full balcony, overlooking a service roof but with a small view of Stormalong Bay and Lake Crescent, obstructed by a building structure). This had a table and 2 chairs on it, though both chairs sat unevenly on the floor resulting in them rocking whilst sat on them. Some other nitpicks with the room, some of which are quite major for us, is that there is a big gap around the bottom and side of the door resulting in a lot of corridor light entering the room at night. There’s also a safety light in the bathroom, which is a good idea for those who require it, but there’s no way to turn this off (it comes on automatically when it’s dark in the room) and it’s quite bright. I need a dark room to sleep in properly to this had a negative impact on my sleep experience, though I was able to somewhat cover it up. There were some plug sockets and USB ports in the room that didn’t work either. There’s also only a bedside table in the middle of the 2 beds, meaning anybody sleeping on the outside side of the beds didn’t have easy access to a bedside table. You can supposedly fit 4 adults in one standard room, though this would be quite cramped. Supposedly the beds in the room were Queen beds, though I really struggled to see how they were any bigger than a double. Bathroom The bathroom was good and nice and clean. The toilet and shower area is separate to the sink area so people can be using the sink area whilst others are using the facilities. The sink area contains 2 sinks which is helpful when there’s a few people staying in the room. As this is a Disney resort, it falls victim to the single-ply toilet paper Disney likes to provide. For the price you pay for this resort, you would think they would at least provide better quality toilet paper. In-Room Facilities There’s a coffee machine, a fridge, a safe and a good-quality hairdryer. There safe is a decent size, though you’ll struggle if you’re travelling with multiple laptops. There was also an extra pillow and blanket provided at the top of the wardr

This hotel ruined other locations at Disney for me. Walking to Epcot can’t (and hasn’t) been beat. Room was very pretty we had a woods view. Hotel lobby is bright and busy but had inviting high back chairs to people watch. Room wasn’t ready until after 5 which stunk since we travelled all day and had after hours that evening. We would have loved to rest a bit before heading out. Very tiny resort store which is also where you get any hot food items so that is a strange layout. But food items were tasty, staff was friendly Cape May if off lobby. This was my favorite thing at Beach Club. The character breakfast has a lot to choose from. I had a reservation after parks opened so it was not busy and the interaction was some of the best I have experienced. (If you can do this i highly recommend doing at 9am slot) Goofy sat and had coffee with me. And I loved watching the he extra time they spent with the kids that were there. I felt all the Disney magic that morning.

Surreal because it's like a dream...but now that dream is reality. Disney's Beach Club Resort - Magical throughout the day and night! Great staff: professional, considerate with cupsful of polite humor. Upon arrival at the divinely fresh scented Disney's Beach Cub Resort, you are greeted by staff who are pleasantly waiting to assist you. Whether it's opening the door of your vehicle, in aide for you to get out of it or helping you with your luggage. They have a marketplace where you can get a variety of goodies from delicious meals (throughout the day), snacks, souvenirs, bags, accessories and much more. You are privy to free bus drives to the Disney theme parks and Disney Springs. Another amenity is the free boat ride to the Hollywood studio along the board walk or you can enjoy a stroll or run on the board walk. Pools and slides - blasts of fun! My kids wouldn't have it any other way. Life jackets are free to use, and lifeguards are focused. There's a leisure arcade where from the looks of it being constantly crowded with families or teenagers, is one of the highlighted enjoyments for guests. Following up is the ice cream parlor crammed throughout the day with satisfied kids. The Divine and the universe really aligned it that even the guests I came across there were humanly magical - thankyou God. From the youngest toddler with her angel smile, to the little boy who opened and held the pool gate for my kids and I, to the moms who engage my kids in conversations with their kids, to industrious dad who hadn't been at Disney in over 25 years, to the musically incline dad who is great at location directions, to the thoughtful kindhearted people who offered to take family pics for us, to the family where Phoenix continuously rises, to the pleasant morning boardwalk lady. Thank you for making this Disney trip for my family and I joyfully memorable. Thankyou Disney Beach Club Resort for an amazing experience for my family and I from the complimentary Mickey Mouse Cupcake for my children to your courteous staff on the grounds, room service and lifeguards.

Pros - proximity to Epcot Cons - It’s an average mass market experience and housekeeping schedule was a mess. We came back to the room after a long day in the parks twice and our room hadn’t been cleaned. Brought it up and complained the first day only to have the issue repeated the second day. We left the room at 7am and returned at 4:30pm and no housekeeping done! The head of housekeeping was apologetic the second time around and offered us a comp on our dinner. However the inconvenience of having this happen twice in the summer heat and then having to leave the room again instead of resting after a long day, was a massive inconvenience. Generally it feels like processes at this hotel are a bit broken. The hotel is also oldish and needs a refurb (the bathrooms at least)

We went in 2022, but I was honestly too frustrated to write a review then! We came from New Zealand, and this was our second trip to Dinsey with our kids. The first time we loved - and we stayed in the cheapest hotel in Disney about 5 years before. We thought we would love the hotel but found the staff and service a real letdown. The staff - especially the front desk and concierge seemed almost rude - no smile, didn't greet our children when we arrived, they just seemed really unhappy, didn't know the answers to basic questions like what are the nearby restaurants, and kept telling us to use the app, but when I asked questions about the app they didn't know how to use it either. It was so impersonal and inefficient - lots of queues all the time, etc. Also, we stayed in the hotel for 7 days but could not get breakfast or dinner because we hadn't booked 2 months in advance. Like, jeez, can we have some sort of bonus for staying in the hotel so we can actually eat here? We lived off the fast food at the pool. The room was ok but very small for 5 of us. When we didn't have the cleaners come in, they knocked on our door and said they had to inspect the room. They literally came in, looked around, and said it was ok. Seriously? I found that just so rude. We pay that much for a room, and you don't trust us not to trash the place? We were being kind - with so many of us in the room, it seemed like it would be too hard for the cleaning staff to get in, and sometimes the kids napped. The staff, I guess this is Disney in general, were so overly safety conscious that it made you feel like you were always watched. Around the campfire, for instance, we stopped going as I wasn't allowed to bend down near the fire to help my kids, wasn't allowed to touch the cold outside stones of the fire, wasn't allowed to break the stick for toasting the marshmallow (OMG - the risk of splinters, how will we cope?!). They just managed to take all the fun out of everything. They also somehow cancelled the last 3 days of our trip without telling us! Honestly, it was appalling, we tried to follow it up with them but you just go round in circles with them on the phone and like most people, I have better things to do with my time. I have literally no idea how it happened - they said we cancelled the last 3 days - but we did not. We had had no contact with them at all. We only found out when we went to ask the front desk about something else. They had no proof of how we cancelled - no email etc. We were actually kind of relieved, as it gave us an out - we left and went to a resort outside Disney for a fraction of the cost and much better staff and facilities for the last 3 days. I won't ever stay or go there again. It still makes me mad. It was horrible. And the parks—omg, they're just awful—the queues, the lack of shade, the lack of water, the overcrowding, and that bloody app! Disney has definitely lost its magic!
