Stay in a DVC Villa

Beach vacations with children are made much easier when you have a spacious room to return to. Disney’s Vero Beach Resort is home to incredible DVC villas that offer families a comfortable place to stay. When you are traveling to the beach with children you should expect to take at least one midday break in your room so you and your kids can rest. The villas at Disney’s Vero Beach help families avoid cabin fever with their spacious living areas and multiple bedrooms. Families can also find more comfort in the ability to put their kids to bed in separate bedrooms, and having more than one bathroom is a huge advantage when booking DVC!

Take Advantage of the Pool and Splash Area

There is so much more than just a beach at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort! Part of what makes this resort such a great destination for families is the fun pool area. The pool at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort is large and features a tall and twisting waterslide. Life jackets are available to use for your child as well. The Tiger Lily pirate ship splash area is for children who are less than 48 inches tall. This fun play area features a water slide and spraying water cannons. Poolside games like bingo and trivia are hosted frequently throughout the day. Guests can check with the front desk for a full schedule of activities that will take place during their visit.

Rent Cabanas or Beach Umbrellas

When you are taking children to the beach, protection from the sun and a place to rest is a must. Disney’s Vero Beach Resort offers daily rentals of beach umbrellas and chairs, or beach cabanas. Rentals begin at 9am each day and are good for the entire day, perfect for spending a day on the beach with your little one.

Use the Community Hall

Taking advantage of the Community Hall is a huge tip for families with children! There are daily crafts and activities that the entire family can enjoy at the Community Hall, and guests can check with the front desk for a full list of events during their stay. Disney’s Community Hall even offers special free crafts for those aged 5 and under in order to keep your little ones busy and entertained during your vacation.

Don’t Forget Character Dining

Many guests don’t realize that Disney’s Vero Beach Resort has a character breakfast experience! On Saturday mornings only, from 8am to noon, Goofy and Pluto join guests for breakfast at Wind & Waves Grill. Guests can not only enjoy meeting these characters in their beach attire but also enjoy a delicious breakfast filled with assorted pastries, blueberry pancakes, bananas foster French toast, and so much more!
