Beach Club Hotel

The Beach Club Hotel is one of our top recommended hotels at Walt Disney World!

We love staying at the Beach Club Hotel for our visits to Walt Disney World. We recommend it so much because of its location and nightlife. The hotel is located in the EPCOT area and features the Boardwalk Entertainment district within a few minutes of walking. We’ve always rated this hotel 5 out of 5 stars not just for location but service and amenities too.

Location: EPCOT area

Description:

Leisure, elegance and romance abound at this charming New England-style beach hotel—in easy walking distance to Epcot and a boat ride to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Enjoy the pools, spas and lagoons of Stormalong Bay, and the many amenities shared with Disney’s Yacht Club & Beach Club Hotel.

Our Take

The Beach Club Hotel is located in the EPCOT area of Walt Disney World and features some really cool amenities including a massive pool area (the best one at Disney World), the Boardwalk Entertainment District, ferry boats and tons of walking paths including options to walk to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios which we highly recommend.

The hotel is home to Beaches and Cream, the best ice cream shop at Disney World and features the kitchen sink challenge: 8 scoops of ice cream, every topping possible and an entire can of whipped cream. Try doing it with 3-4 other people and eat quick! The ice cream melts fast and it becomes a pool of melted flavors!

The pool for Beach Club Hotel is 3 acres of awesome including a shipwrecked pirate boat and a really fun water slide. The pool is technically shared with the Yacht Club Resort as well but because of its size it’s no big deal. In the summer time get out early for some shaded chairs!

The Yachtsman Steakhouse is a really great place to get breakfast in the morning. They have a la carte or a buffet to choose from with really great offerings. It’s also a great place to enjoy a delicious steak in the evening time. Be sure to make reservations for either as they tend to fill-up quick!

Beach Club Hotel Pros:

  • Walk to two theme parks and the monorail to get to Magic Kingdom.
  • That means less busing than most resorts!
  • Best pool at Walt Disney World hands down.
  • Boardwalk Entertainment District is just a few steps away.
  • Amazing lake views and ferry boats for the parks.

Cons:

  • Pricey but when it comes to Disney World what isn’t?!
  • Older-ish rooms and villas but nothing to complain about yet.

Discounts and Savings

We recommend Undercover Tourist for the best price on this hotel.

The Final Word
It's our second highest ranked hotel on Disney World Property. Its pool is easily THE best and its location is fantastic next to EPCOT and a short walk to Hollywood Studios. Dining is also amazing here.
