Accommodations Review:
|
We had a King Room on the concierge level. The room was good sized
and very nicely themed. We also had a full size balcony which was
nice to have in the morning because we would normally grab a bite
to eat from the concierge lounge and eat it on the balcony. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
Location (near EPCOT and MGM) and Stormalong Bay |
Room # and Location Description:
|
5143 - Concierge Level next to elevators and concierge lounge. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
Great location. We were close to everything on the concierge level. |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
Check-in and check-out were a breeze because of staying on the concierge
level. |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
We thought that the boats were a bit slow, especially after Fantasmic,
but buses were fast and the walk to EPCOT is quick and easy. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
We ate at Yachtman's Steakhouse, Beaches n' Cream and Hurricane
Hanna's. Yachtman's and Beaches were wonderful. Hurricane Hanna's
was a bit disappointing. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
Stormalong Bay is a wonderful pool. It was very relaxing and had
so much to do. The only disappointing thing is that you have to pay
to get innertubes. We enjoyed Stormalong Bay so much, we never made
it to the quiet pool. |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
If you can afford to stay on the concierge level, do it. The concierge
staff at the Yacht Club is absolutely wonderful. They helped us do
so many things, from making priority seating arrangements to helping
me get flowers for my wife on our wedding day. Even if you do not
stay on the concierge level, the resort is still wonderful. The theming
is great, the location is wonderful, the pool is awesome and the general
staff is very nice and courteous. If you like to swim and plan on
spending a lot of time at EPCOT, MGM or Boardwalk, this is the place
for you. |
