Close to Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Can walk to both or take the boat. The pool is shared with the Beach Club Resort and has a real sand “beach”. Restaurants at the resort are well-known for their good food. (Ale and Compass restaurant and Yachtsman restaurant)

This is the first time that I booked a specific room, had specific criteria about the room, and the criteria were carried out by the hotel without having to switch rooms. Usually and unfortunately when I book on Hotels.Com, traditional is I don’t get the best room in the house that’s available, but Disney blew this out of the water! We had the best view, 3 beds, great location floor wise, and I didn’t have to go to the room and go back to the front desk to complain to go back to a new room- they did it right the first time!

Love that the property is very close to Epcot and Hollywood Studies and the pool is the best in Disney.
I was not happy about getting my room at 5pm (after checking with the front desk twice prior to that). This is the latest we've ever gotten our room at Disney and had to rush to Disney Springs for our dinner reservation.
Also, the safe didn't work because the batteries died.

For a 5star property this place lacks in service and does not seem to care for their guests. Traveling with an infant and not only was the room not ready at 3pm check-in time but got run arounds and no follow ups or even a genuine apology extended by a supervisor. Had to chase and call several times and wait on a long line AGAIN to finally get my room close to 4pm, when I was there at 10am. To top it all room did not have requested crib and cleanliness was not upto par. Had dust everywhere and phones were filthy. I travel quiet often and for a 5star this was just sad. Especially for a Disney resort,

We booked our stay for a surprise birthday celebration for my mom and sister. Mind you…we paid 900. PER NIGHT! Valet never brought bags up, when we called at 11pm after park they said the parking guys “notoriously” forget to tell you to call for your bags!? We ordered flowers and a cake to be in room to surprise my mom. Front desk upon check-in said they were sending a runner ASAP so that when we walked in she would be surprised. No flowers or cake fir 45 minutes…had to leave to get to a lunch reservation. Didn’t see until we got back that night. Magic cards didn’t work in park, so we couldn’t bill anything to our linked card for TWO days! That’s after getting four new cards made the second day! Market in hotel dirty, elevators and hallways dirty with stuff all over floor. Get back to our room after day 2 and room was never cleaned!!!! Towels on floor, beds not made, etc!!! This is a DELUXE RESORT!!!! If you’re still charging 900. per night for a room, you damn well better be delivering high end service! Very disappointing for a Disney resort!

The perfect blend of Disney World & Beach Vacation
If you love Disney and you love family beach vacations, this is the place for you. You almost forget you are at Disney World when you are out at the pool. It feels like you are on an island resort at the beach. They have done a spectacular job in theming and general esthetics of the Yacht (and attached Beach Club). We have stayed at most of the resorts and this just easily became our #1 favorite for a lot of reasons.

This place is amazing. Disney does it right. Had the most Magical experience ever. Walk on the boardwalk, lots of shopping and restaurants. They have a sandy beach, and they play movies right on the sand for the kids, next to the pirate ship slide. The pool is a beach, that you can float around in tubes, next to a bar that bring you drinks, and kids have their own area to play safe. Only a 5 min. walk to Epcot. I can't explain the feeling you get when you are there. Amazing!

Nice and spacious. Great location; can easily get to several parks. Nice rooms and views. Excellent pool area. The cleaning process due to Covid is sub par- staying for a week in hot weather, a bed refresh would be nice. Also, a vacuum or sweep of the room at least once would also be nice. A slight concern about safety- how did a pizzeria from a nearby town get in the building to put flyers under the door? That didn’t feel very “Disney” like. Overall a really nice stay.

service was sub standard and the communication of what to expect was insufficient from Disney. I would never recommend any one staying on their property. there was no benefit short of not having to wait in the parking line.
lines were long, one restaurant had one person serving takeout for around 200 tables. I couldn't even get into the hotel restaurant for breakfast lunch or dinner during my stay.
As for food, there must be an ordinance against serving vegies. we had a huge problem trying to accommodate our daughter and grand daughter in the parks. I never had so many french fries in my life. and I hope never to again.
This is not to say I wouldn't come back. But I plan to make Disney a much smaller part of my stay next time.
my expectation when staying on a disney resort- if you are going to charge me higher prices at your resorts, than I should be rewarded with some comps.
the staff that was there were great and went out their way to accommodate us in the hotel.

If you stay at the resort order the wristbands 5days prior to check-in super cheap that way, room service only changes towels and sweep floor they do not change the sheets if you want they will hand you sheet to change your self. It’s a most that you reserved eating arrangements for every meal or get a table by placing mobile orders. Oh and get ready for the line that’s for a line that gets you to the line. Enjoy

Understandably, there was little to do. Coronavirus and all. We struggled all week to stay busy. My biggest gripe is after a week of calling around and countless hours on the web, I finally scored a few things that would have been really fun. And were. We just had to change hotels to do them. They wouldn't give an inch on their, already, pretty high room rate. I was dissappointed in them for that. I would have thought they would have been much more accomodating.

Don’t do it!!!
The lobby and facilities are kept up fine but the rooms are just dismal. For $700 per night you get a galley room with plastic flooring. Plus another $75 per night with a pet. They say pet friendly but if you bring your furry friend, you’re relegated to the back corner of the resort to the tools with the worst views. This place and Disney overall is simply a place to part you from your money with the lowest possible return to you, the guest. I will never stay at another Disney property. We could have stayed at the Waldorf Astoria it the Ritz for the same price!

Due to the hurricane there were a lot of dogs here which I understand during this time with evacuees etc however it led to me having no sleep the first night with a certain dog barking all night and morning. Not the hotel's fault of course and they allowed me to change rooms which was appreciated. First room trash hadn't been emptied from previous guest and wasn't very clean in general. Second room was much cleaner in general and away from the dogs. Having stayed at the Beach Club next door I have to say that the Yacht Club does fall short when compared directly. The hallways were a bit grubby and it just didn't live up to the price charged per night.
I wanted to book an extra night but it seemed like a strange process. I was told by the staff I would be put on a waiting list and then contacted. I stated that I could book a room right now on my phone in front of them and there was lots of availability. I came back down again the next day and spoke to a different staff member. He tried to book another night by ringing central guest services and couldn't get through. The manager then luckily came out and just did it straight away on the computer. I couldn't work out why this didn't happen in the first place and why I had to wait for ages for no reason twice. I'd rather lose some of the Disney robotic happiness of the staff for some more productivity.

Last time I was at this hotel it was 10 years ago with my oldest. We got a beautiful room.
Unfortunately this time , my room with the balcony view was to the air conditioner unit on that cement.
Asked why did I get such a room , we paid close to $400, they said that was due to the on line booking I did.

Perfect Family Hotel
The perfect Disney World hotel! The rooms are extremely clean and the beds are comfortable. The sand bottom pool is outstanding, it may be very large, but it includes a shallow area for small children to play. Our 2 1/2 year-old daughter was stung by a bee and the kind lifeguard had someone cover her post so she could use her “Pixie Dust” magic to heal it. In our opinion the #1 hotel pool at Disney. Just adjacent to the pool is a large slide for teenagers and adults. Another great feature of the Disney Yacht Club hotel is its proximity to the Disney Boardwalk (5 min walk) and Epcot (10 min walk). So far this is our family’s favorite Disney Hotel.

The only problem I experienced here is a few stuck up, entitled, think-they-run-the-place guests who boss the staff around at check-in and cut me in line at the coffee shop downstairs. Hope they read this and chill the heck out. Otherwise, Disney Yacht Club is outstanding!

Being a teacher and serving others all day is rewarding, but to be treated like royalty certainly spoiled me and made me feel like I was somewhere special. It was a once in a lifetime stay:)
