Resort
This hotel was designed by the firm of the 2011 Driehaus Prize winner, Robert A.M. Stern Architects.[1] and themed after the seaside cottages of 19th century Newport. The resort's light blue color distinguishes it from the gray siding with red and white striped awnings of Disney's Yacht Club Resort.
Boat transportation from the resort runs to Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios, as well as Disney's Boardwalk Resort and the Walt Disney World Swan and Walt Disney World Dolphin resorts. The resort is approximately five minutes walking distance from Epcot, and roughly fifteen minutes walking distance to Disney's Hollywood Studios. Guests can use the International Gateway entrance to Epcot in World Showcase between the France and United Kingdom pavilions.
Disney's Beach Club Resort has received the designation in the Florida Green Lodging Program.[2]
There are both standard rooms (two queen-size beds or one king-size bed) and suites. Some rooms also have a daybed besides 2 Queen beds or 1 King bed. The resort also offers a fifth floor Concierge Level, with private floor access, a concierge lounge, turndown service, and other amenities. The Concierge Level is home to the resort's Presidential Suite. All rooms were renovated in 2009. Rooms were also renovated from 2015 to 2016. Rooms still have a beach theme, but they are more modern, with shades of gray, brown, and light blue. The hallways were also re-painted and re-papered, along with new carpets and new colors on the doors of the rooms.
In addition, vacation homes at Disney's Beach Club Villas are collapsed into three different sized accommodations, ranging from studios that sleep 4, one-bedroom villas that sleep 4, and two-bedroom villas that sleep 8.
