Disney's Beach Club Resort

This was a short mother-daughter trip to Disney. We usually stay at a Disney Resort along the monorail during our annual visit but we opted to stay at the Beach Club via a service that gives guests access to DVC properties. Having done so was an amazing, eye-opening experience and something that we will likely consider for future stays. The resort is kept very clean and well-maintained, as we've come to expect from most (if not all) Disney properties. There is an open rec-like room for guests to enjoy and plenty of pool areas with lots of space. Unfortunately, during our stay, the large pool (Stormalong Bay), was closed - BUT it looks like A LOT OF FUN for kids and adults, alike. The resort has a quick-service food station and it is also connected to the "boardwalk" which has plenty of food/drink options, as well. We had picked up a quick bite and coffee from the Boardwalk Bakery and also came back at night to grab a slice from the Boardwalk Pizza Window with a drink from the Abracadabra Bar. A big draw of this resort is that it is in walking distance and connected to Epcot through a back pathway that enters/exits right between France and the UK in the World Showcase. This was great because we were able to go back to our room to take a quick break during the day. We visited during the global pandemic and have to say we did not see a single adult or child in the resort (or at the parks, for the matter) without a mask on. The resorts (and the parks) have ample hand sanitizer stations positioned at the entrance and exit or every line or ride. To get into the parks, you must first pass a temperature screening. The resort staff can be seen cleaning tables, chairs, door handles and high-touch areas frequently. We will absolutely be back to the Beach Club as soon as we can!

It is easy walking distance to Epcot, The BoardWalk and a short boat ride to Hollywood Studios. The pool is huge with a lot of difference areas to sit including a huge pirate boat ship wreak water slide that you have to walk out of the pool area to get to it. It is the only pool at Disney to have a sand bottom and 'beach' area to play. If you purchase food at the bar 'Hurricane Hanna's Waterside Bar and Grill' your meal also comes with a cute free bucket and spade. This resort is huge and the pool requires all Magic Bands scanned and you receive a colour wristband for the day. Finally the pool has resident ducks that at times swim in the pool from the lake also known as 'Water Chickens' at Disney. Heavy themed 'Hidden Mickeys' everywhere, even when you are on the lift the voices of the Fab 5 (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy) count the numbers and say have a great day when you get off. Especially love that when it rains they leave towels at all major doors so you can dry off. Beautifully themed gardens everywhere. There is a lot to see and do including Pin Trading in the foyer Cons - Balcony is only for show you can squeeze 2 people on it to look at the view. Due to the Beach Club having Disney Worlds popular restaurants and gingerbread carousel at Christmas this Foyer as you enter can be loud and crazy with the amount of people who come to eat morning, noon and night. #disneyfamilymadness #waltdisneyworld
