Disney BoardWalk

When making plans to visit Disney World, most guests think about which parks they want to visit, which attractions to experience, and what shows are must-dos for them. But did you know that your Disney resort can be just as full of experiences as the Disney parks? Spending a full resort day at a DVC resort is a great way to spend your downtime during your next Disney vacation. Whether you’re an introvert, traveling with small children, or doing an adult-only vacation, there are many satisfying ways to spend a full resort day. Here are 5 reasons to spend a full resort day at Disney’s Boardwalk Resort.

1. Delicious Meals and Restaurant Options

If you want to stay at a resort with a wide-variety of food options then you really can’t go wrong with Disney’s Boardwalk Resort! This resort is styled after an Atlantic city boardwalk, and because of this it is home to many food stands, stalls, and restaurants. Guests love the variety that they can get here whether it be with Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs, Pizza Window, Margarita Joe’s, Cake Bake Shop, Flying Fish, or Trattoria Al Forno. If you want something quick and easy then Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs serves unique offerings that you can’t find anywhere else like the Pickle Corn Dog and Mexican Street Corn Dog. Cake Bake Shop Bakery is also a great place to stop for a sweet treat, as is Carousel Coffee for an afternoon pick-me-up!

2. Fun Pools and Water Play

Disney’s Boardwalk Resort is home to a feature pool with a twisting waterslide designed to look like an old Coney Island roller coaster. This fun pool is called the Luna Park Pool, and families with kids love coming here. Looking for a more quiet experience? Disney’s Boardwalk features two leisure pools as well.

3. Shopping and Other Boardwalk Fun

There’s plenty of fun to be had at the boardwalk! Guests who are 21 and up can experience Atlantic Dance Hall for nightly dance parties. Live entertainment can also be found throughout the boardwalk in the evening. Guests can also walk to Beach Club and enjoy a scenic stroll, and you can even catch a glimpse of the EPCOT fireworks each night.

4. Community Hall

Disney’s Boardwalk Resort features a Community Hall for DVC guests to enjoy. This Community Hall features DVD rentals, board games, a place to relax, and even daily crafts and activities. Community Halls can really come in handy during rainy days, or during resort-only days when you’re trying to keep the family busy.
