Resort Showcase – Disney’s Beach Club Resort

Revisit the oceanside vacations of your childhood with a stay at Disney’s Beach Club Resort.

Inspired by the bright and airy atmosphere of a seaside town, Disney’s Beach Club is an inviting Deluxe Resort nestled on Crescent Lake, just steps away from the EPCOT International Gateway.

Also opened in 1990, the Beach Club shares many amenities and dining options with its sister resort, the Yacht Club. Inviting pastel colors and white trims are sewn throughout the resort, reminiscent of Victorian-style beach houses that punctuate the New England coastline.

Guests return to this resort year after year, touting its prime location and fan-favorite amenities.

Rooms at the Beach Club are bright and inviting with clean lines and fresh, neutral hues.

The Beach Club is home to just under 600 rooms, including Standard, Deluxe, and 1- or 2-bedroom Suites.

You can select a Standard view room, or opt for a view of the garden, woods or water.

If you’re looking for more space or a more luxurious experience, go all-in with the Nantucket VIP Suite for two, or the Newport Presidential Suite, which can accommodate up to seven adults.

Deluxe studios and 1- or 2-bedroom villas are also available as part of the Disney Beach Club Villas (DVC).

As a Deluxe resort, guests can expect the high-quality comforts of home, including toiletries, pool towels, hair dryers, televisions, beverage coolers and unlimited in-room tea and coffee for your whole stay.

Those staying in Club Level rooms will enjoy also key-card access to the Stone Harbor Club, with complimentary refreshments and newspapers, as well as personalized front desk and guest services.

Of the many draws of the Beach Club, Stormalong Bay is no doubt among the top. The expansive and intricate pool includes waterslides, pirate-themed splash zones, a lazy river and even a separate sand-bottomed area. Reviews have claimed this to be the best pool on property for years, making it a must-do and enjoyable perk for both families and individuals.

Guests of the Beach Club can also take advantage of these additional resort amenities:

Even closer to EPCOT than the Yacht Club, this resort sits right outside of the International Gateway, making it a favorite for those attending the seasonal festivals or holiday celebrations. Friendship boats are also available between the Beach Club and EPCOT or Hollywood Studios, if you’d like to mix it up for a change of scenery.

The Skyliner can be accessed from just outside of EPCOT, as well. Of course, the Disney bus system is available to take you to other resorts, parks, or Disney Springs.

For those who choose to rent or bring their own cars to the resort, expect to pay about $25 per night to park at the Beach Club. Valet parking is also an option, and will run you around $33 per night.

As with many resort amenities, the Beach and Yacht Club share most dining options. You’ll find appropriately-themed menus featuring seafood specialties and comforting extras that will remind you of summers at the beach.
