We check in on Tuesday night, and booked as Standard View room. I called a few days ago to request a daybed room since my son and daughter really hate to share a bed. Today I was doodling around on the app and randomly clicked "charges" to see what it would pull up, and for each night it shows taxes, and then "Disney's Yacht Club Resort - Lagoon or Pool View." The nightly charge is the same so ... can I take this as a good sign that we might have a better room? I won't get my hopes up too much, just wondering if this means anything, haha.
Mods, can you take me off the list for May? I just changed our reservation from the BCV to a club room at the BWI. I decided that for just the 2 of us (me and DH), I would rather have club level than a villa! Not cooking anyway, LOL!
Thanks!
Not sure if this is the right place to ask but does anyone know/remember what the fall AP discount was for beach club? I found the percentage range for last year (25-35%) but not which percentage applied to which property. Hoping to book a September trip and wanted to estimate staying there so we could walk in and out of Epcot for food and wine - tia!!
I looked at videos of the renovated rooms at YC. Do they all have showers no tubs? Just curious.
Also how big are the patios?
Thanks.
To avoid noise, you definitely do not want a room facing the pool. We had a standard room that faced the pool (right over the roof so it was obstructed pool view) and it was quite loud during pool hours because of the pool music.
Also, I repeat what someone else said: Don’t get a connecting room. Ours was connecting and we could hear everything our neighbors said when they were in the room. One evening they talked and laughed for over an hour. Had to turn on our tv to get some sleep.
Be aware that the Epcot and HS fireworks are loud. Big booms can be heard in the Beach Club room during the Star Wars fireworks and Illuminations. I guess at Disney it’s hard to avoid fireworks noise, but if your child is really sensitive, you might want headphones or some other noise cancelling device during fireworks.
Can you add me to the list?
August 30 to September 2 at the YC Standard View
Hoping that Food and Wine starts in August again!
Has anyone had a recent BC CL stay? If so, can you give me an idea of what the evening appetizer offerings were? Thanks!
I don't think I ever got a date for your trip, Lauren. I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list. Better late than never.
Wishing you both fantastic stays!
Hi! Would you mind adding me as well?
June 23-June 30 BCV
Thank you!
Will do. I'm just about to update the list from the past week.
I'm caught up.
Please take a look at the Be Our Guest list to see if I have your information listed correctly.

Hey everyone!
What is your experience with Room Requests being honored? We are staying for our wedding in 19 days. Booked a garden/woods view room, and noted at the time of reservation we *really* would like a room overlooking the gazebo (that’s where our ceremony will be held ). I also posted on here a while back for a direct line to reservations, which I have saved and I’m planning to call the week of. Have you usually had a positive experience with getting a room/view you really want at YC? I’m so nervous our request won’t be honored, and we hoped to have some family members watch our ceremony from the room (will make for great pictures ) so I’m just starting to panic now with all the wedding jitters setting in! TIA for your input!
Yes, a split stay June 5-8 YC, 8-12 BCV. Thank you.Do you have an upcoming stay booked?
Hola, Amigos!
Just back from a week in Mexico, at the Barcelo Maya Grand, another favorite vacation location. One of the most relaxing trips I have ever had, despite my son having food poisoning on our second day and less than ideal snorkeling conditions.
Finally made it to Chichen Itza after visiting the Yucatan 5 times- it was incredible!
Oh, yeah, and Dead & Company (3 members of the Grateful Dead and John Mayer) performed four nights at our resort on a stage at the far end of the beach. We weren't there because of the event like the majority of people staying there, but we could hear and see the concerts from loungers on the sand. The resort was filled with Deadheads who decorated their rooms with banners and lights, and our fellow guests were so friendly and chill. It was incredibly fun!
I'll spend the next hour or so catching up here.
Really just echoing what Dee said but Gazebo view was my request last time too, did it through Disney and Touring Plans. When we got to the check in desk (we never do online check in) I asked what we had been given and when it wasn't what I had asked for the lovely CM did everything she could and got us a Gazebo view, even upgraded us from garden to lagoon view. So I would definitely check in at the front desk and just ask politely to see if they can accommodate your request. Every time I've stayed at Disney I've checked our room and twice they've moved us. Once we had to stay in the first room for one night but then were moved. Good luck and congratulations on your upcoming wedding.
Yes, a split stay June 5-8 YC, 8-12 BCV. Thank you.
We are doing a split stay in August YC and GF. 2 nights at YC. I wondered if anyone could give me an idea of activities at the resort? Or just a screenshot of what is being offered currently? There is already so much between the theme parks and the pool but I was curious.
Wow how cool, I love the Dead saw them in NJ last year. I would have been hunting them down
Does Hurricane Hannah's still offer the Sunken Treasure?
Anyone know what they offer for food and drinks at Yacht Club, Club Level?
Check out post #12 of this awesome thread.

They do change the offerings often, but this should give you an idea.
