I love the yacht beach. I love the pool for the summer. I love the location. I love everything about the resort, but this past time that we stay there I don’t know if it was overcrowded, but they were down 100 rooms with redoing the outside but we had gone to the market a couple times and waiting for food. It was terrible and the food quality was not very good most of the time we went somewhere else they really need to re-sync their system how it works in there I don’t know if they were shorthanded, but everybody seemed to be like they were busy. We waited almost a half hour for food and it’s not very good quality But other than that, I totally totally love the Resort

Staff was amazing, room was amazing, nice and close to the regatta club, which was fantastic. Had resort view room, but was able to view some of the water as well, which was a nice surprise.
We were there during a lot of construction on the resort. We weren’t bothered by it, until about 8:30a in the morning, then you could hear it from the room, but we were out of the room for most of our vacation so it didn’t really bother us.
If I had to knit pick anything, it would be, the regatta club had the same food selection for dinner and breakfast every other day and no Mickey waffles 😞. In the past, they have switched up the variety 3 or 4 times in during our stay, but this time is was the same food every other day. The food itself was great, but the kids started getting tired of the same thing by the end of the stay. Again, only knit picking because it really was a great stay and 10/10 vacation all around.

The quick service at The Market at Yale and Compass was awful! The sitting area which is much too small was filthy and unkept . Food was on the floor. Tables were not cleaned or bussed. Disgusting!!!! Soda machines were not maintained ( No Ice ) etc. My wife and I have been coming to Disney since 1971. We stay at various Deluxe Resorts and this was, by far the worst experience we have had.
The pool area which is lovely , allows guests to put towels on chairs. When we came down in the morning , seats were available. When we came in the PM , no seating was available. Towels reserving chairs but no individuals using the chairs ! Numerous guests (many) were walking around complaining to Cast Members . We have reservations for September 26 to Sept 29 . We certainly hope these issues will be resolved.
We recently stayed at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort and had a fantastic experience. Having stayed at the BoardWalk before, I honestly think the Yacht Club tops it in every way. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and beautifully themed. The lobby felt a bit dark, but that seemed to be due to the ongoing construction in that area.
The amenities were great — quick service options, onsite restaurants, and of course the massive pool, which was the main reason we booked this resort. Stormalong Bay absolutely lived up to the hype. My kids were amazed by the pool and it was the perfect way to relax after busy park days.
Transportation was super convenient. We used the Friendship Boats almost every day, and being able to walk to both EPCOT and Hollywood Studios made everything even easier.
The staff were amazing as well — friendly, helpful, and always welcoming.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay and highly recommend this resort, especially for families with kids.

Check in was a disappointing experience. We arrived around 1pm and were told the room was almost ready and we should get a notification in the app soon. Because we were told this, we decided to sit in the lobby and wait with our luggage in lieu of checking it with bell services and leaving to explore. We ended up waiting two hours and not getting a notification that the room was ready so at 3pm I went back to the front desk to find out why. I was told that my room requests (high floor, close to lobby) were the reason that even at 3pm the room was not ready yet. I decided to forgo the location requests in order to receive a room at 3pm. This experience was not a great way to start our trip. The room we received was also very rough around the edges. Specifically, the bathroom and shower area had mildew stains that just gave it the feeling of a much less expensive hotel. Overall, with the construction and a few instances of us returning to the room exhausted midday for a break and the room not being made up yet, only to have housekeeping come and ask us at that point if we'd like the room to be made up, was disappointing to say the least. This was the second time this year we came to Disney world to stay at the deluxe resort for 7 nights, spending over $10,000 each time. And I'm not sure after this trip we feel like we would do the same for future vacations.
