Club\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>One of the largest deciding factors in our family\u2019s resort selection for our Disney trips boils down to location.\u00a0 As my children have grown into the teenage and young adult years, we\u2019ve found the Epcot resort area to be our all time favorite area to stay at the Walt Disney World Resort.\u00a0 We especially enjoy Disney\u2019s Yacht and Beach Club Resort which not only offers a luxurious, upscale stay, but also gives guests amazing amenities and the convenience of a variety of transportation options to the parks.<\/p>\n<p>Upon entering the Beach Club, the bright lobby and soft floral colors take you back to a seaside beach resort of days that are long gone by.\u00a0 The Yacht Club offers a more formal atmosphere with dark, rich woods and the nautical theme of an upscale marina.\u00a0 Each resort exudes its own individuality and feels like its own entity when, in fact, the Yacht and Beach Club are sister resorts where guests are entitled to double the amenities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Epcot and the Disney Studios are both within walking distance of each resort, although both parks are also serviced by boat launches which offer a unique, fun way to travel to those parks.\u00a0 The Magic Kingdom and Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom can be reached via Disney\u2019s motor coaches, but a fun way to hop to the Magic Kingdom is by making the jaunt through Epcot to the monorail (keep in mind the park hopping option on your ticket media is a must in order to do this).<\/p>\n<p>Rooms at Disney\u2019s Yacht and Beach Club are well appointed and most sleep up to 5 guests.\u00a0 While similar in size, d\u00e9cor for each differs as the beach and yacht theme is carried throughout each resort.\u00a0 Pay particular attention to the carpets throughout the resorts for Hidden Mickeys as well as other Hidden Disney Characters.<\/p>\n<p>Water views are a special treat at both resorts and during one of our recent stays at the Yacht Club we were afforded a wonderful showing of Illuminations at Epcot to enjoy from the privacy of our balcony \u2013 it\u2019s worth the splurge for a room with a view here!<\/p>\n<p>Ask housekeeping for nightly turndown service for a warm return to your room each evening including chocolates on the pillow.<\/p>\n<p>Dining options are abundant at the Yacht and Beach Club.\u00a0 Interested in one of the best steaks on property?\u00a0 Splurge by dining at the Yachtsman Steakhouse for one of the most amazing signature dining experiences ever.\u00a0 Looking for a fun character breakfast?\u00a0\u00a0 Cape May Caf\u00e9 at the Beach Club is one of the best character meals onsite with Minnie and friends decked out in beachwear and ready to sit at your table to help your kids with their meals, sign autographs and carry out silly antics.\u00a0 And have you ever felt like you\u2019ve eaten everything but the kitchen sink?\u00a0 At Beaches and Cream you can eat that Kitchen Sink \u2013 it has scoops and scoops and more scoops of every ice cream flavor with every topping imaginable.\u00a0 My family of 5 had it for dinner one evening and we couldn\u2019t finish!<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for recreation look no further than the Yacht and Beach Club\u2019s incredible mini-water park called Stormalong Bay, exclusive for the use of the resort\u2019s guests (bring your room ID).\u00a0 With waterslides, a jetted water area, waterfalls and vast swimming areas arising out of a massive shipwreck you may find yourself spending more time here than actually touring in the parks.\u00a0\u00a0 And yes, that really is sand at the bottom of the pools!<\/p>\n<p>If a quieter pace is more your style, each resort also offers a quiet pool secluded away from the hustle and bustle with a hot tub.\u00a0 Tennis, jogging trails and sand pit volleyball are also fun options for those seeking an active resort experience.<\/p>\n<p>An amazing resort in an amazing vacation destination makes the Yacht and Beach Club a favorite for everyone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the
