Disney's Yacht Club Resort

Disney's Yacht Club Resort is a lakeside Disney Deluxe Resort featuring lush landscaping and the formal grace of a grand New England yacht club.

Designed by architect Robert A.M. Stern—known for his East Coast beach houses—this splendid 5-story Resort transports Guests to the summertime Shingle Style hotels of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. (Sister resort Disney's Beach Club Resort is a more relaxed, pastel-toned edifice next door; the 2 share many amenities.)

Public areas, Guest rooms and suites are adorned in dark wood and wicker furniture, portholes and simulated captain's wheels. Cast Members are decked out in ship's crew regalia, including navy blazers and captain's hats.

Behind the Resort lie Stormalong Bay and Crescent Lake. Stormalong Bay spans 3 acres, with water slides emerging from the life-size replica of a wrecked ship, lagoons, a slow river to float along in inner tubes and a sand-bottom pool. At 25-acre Crescent Lake, Guests can rent a variety of watercraft (such as pedal boats and pontoons) from the Bayside Marina, go on a fishing expedition or take a private cruise on the Breathless, where at night one might see fireworks.

Stretch out and relax on white-sand shores. Discover the rustic charm of the Yachtsman Steakhouse as you savor mouthwatering steaks, seafood, chicken and lamb dishes. Enjoy state-of-the-art Nautilus and Hammer Strength exercise equipment at the Ship Shape Health Club and then unwind with a rejuvenating massage.

Disney's Yacht Club Resort has been designated by the Florida Green Lodging Program, recognizing the Resort's environmentally responsible practices.
