Absolutely beautiful resort and exactly what we needed after our (non-disney) Cruise! Everyone was so helpful and our room is great and in a quiet location. Wish I could request that exact room again some time!
Others might not like the distance from the elevator, but I loved that it was tucked in and away from usual hallway noise.

We stayed at the Walt Disney World Yacht Club Resort in late September 2025 for five nights, Club Level, and it was our first time staying at this resort. We typically stay at the monorail resorts, but for this trip—an adults-only getaway while we left the kids at home—we wanted to try something different and spend several relaxed days enjoying EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival.
Going in, we honestly expected it would be hard to top the Club Level experience we had earlier this summer at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, where the cast members truly set the bar exceptionally high. We were so pleasantly surprised by how much we loved the Yacht Club. From start to finish, it was a charming, delightful stay, made truly special by exceptional cast members who genuinely cared and made every interaction memorable. The warmth, sincerity, kindness, and respect shown throughout the resort were outstanding. We could not have been more pleased with any aspect of our first Yacht Club stay.
The Club Level experience exceeded our expectations. The food offerings were fantastic—both in quality and variety—and the service from the Club Level cast was attentive without ever feeling intrusive. While the lounge itself is smaller than some other Club Level lounges we’ve experienced on Disney property, it works beautifully. We never had trouble finding a table, and food was always plentiful, fresh, and well prepared. We especially enjoyed the small outdoor deck and terrace, which allowed for relaxed outdoor dining and was a great place to unwind.
Mousekeeping was excellent and took wonderful care of our room throughout the stay. You can truly tell that each cast member takes pride in their role. From the moment you walk into the lobby and are warmly greeted, to every interaction across the resort, this was a 10/10 Disney experience for us.
The resort grounds are perfectly maintained. Everything felt clean, fresh, and beautiful, and the upscale coastal theme is carried through thoughtfully and consistently. Our water-view room was spacious, with a fantastic view, good storage, and a warm, inviting feel. The beds and linens were extremely comfortable and contributed to a very restful stay.
The location of the Yacht Club deserves every bit of praise it gets. We found it incredibly convenient—about a 5–6 minute walk to EPCOT’s International Gateway and an easy 15-minute walk to Hollywood Studios. Bus service to Magic Kingdom worked well, and for Animal Kingdom we opted for a quick $6 Uber after just missing a bus, which felt well worth it rather than waiting another 20 minutes.
One final note: we were so impressed with our stay that we’ve already rebooked a second visit to the Yacht Club. On our upcoming trip, we’ll be bringing our two daughters, and we can’t wait for them to experience Disney in a new way at such a high-quality resort. It’s clear that the resort’s leadership sets a strong, positive example and guides cast members to take genuine pride in their work. The sincere, thoughtful, and kind interactions we experienced throughout our stay reflect that direction from the top. Often it’s the smallest gestures that make the biggest difference, and the Yacht Club excels at that. We’re truly thankful for our first experience and very much looking forward to our return.

My recent stay at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we stepped into the lobby, the experience was set: the incredible signature scent instantly put us in a great, relaxing, and cheerful mood. It’s a small detail, but it makes an enormous difference.
The resort itself is exceptionally well-maintained, feeling very clean and organized. Unlike some other Disney properties, the Yacht Club never felt overwhelmingly busy or overpopulated, which made the whole vacation feel more exclusive and tranquil. Every staff member we encountered was super friendly and genuinely helpful, making us feel welcome at every turn.
The location is unparalleled. Having an amazing view of the Boardwalk was a treat, but the convenience of being within easy walking distance to both Epcot and Hollywood Studios was a game-changer—no more waiting endlessly for a bus! It's also conveniently close to the Skyliner access, and boat transportation is available if you prefer a scenic route to the parks.
The absolute highlight for my children was Stormalong Bay. The pool complex is phenomenal! I was initially hesitant about the sand bottom, but it was actually really cool and felt soft and nice under our feet, a huge improvement over traditional coarse concrete. Between the relaxing lazy river, the fun whirlpool, and the truly excellent waterslide, the kids were in paradise.
If you are looking for convenience, luxury, and the best pool on Disney property, the Yacht Club is the place to book. We can’t wait to return!

The yacht club has always been great to us! The rooms are gorgeous and you can tell the staff genuinely takes pride in their jobs. My only complaint which isn’t even a real complaint is that the marketplace for coffee and food doesn’t open until 7:30 am. Other than that it’s a fabulous hotel with beautiful amenities!

We just did a quick tour on our way back from the park. The lobby was lovely and the pool looks fun. The shipwreck water slide got our daughter's attention. Definitely tops our list to try on our next stay.
