Work Being Done To Disney’s Boardwalk Villas Guest Room Balconies



Disney BoardWalk

Back in March, we reported on the upcoming refurbishments planned for the inside of the guest rooms at Disney’s Boardwalk Villas, as evidenced by the lack of room availability in Disney Vacation Club’s online booking tools.

When looking at the availability of certain view types, or the lack thereof, we were able to conclude that guests booking their vacations at Disney’s Boardwalk Villas could start to see diminished inventory starting in early September.

Work On Boardwalk-Facing Balconies Taking Place

Now, we are seeing reports of cherry picker vehicles arranged in front of the Boardwalk view guest rooms, allowing work on the balconies facing the Boardwalk.

For the uninitiated, a cherry picker is a versatile construction vehicle with a hydraulic, articulated boom lift, which can raise workers up enabling them to work in difficult to reach areas.

Boardwalk Villa Limited Availability By View Type

Although it seems Disney is getting a head-start by working on the balconies, the work being done does not seem to affect the availability of the rooms at the resort. We still expect limited availability starting in September for Boardwalk View rooms, with work on other view types trailing into 2024.

View Type Start Date End Date
Boardwalk View 9/9/23 11/23/23
Standard View 1/1/24 2/28/24
Preferred View To Be Determined To Be Determined

If you’re planning a trip to Boardwalk Villas at the end of this year, you may find availability for Boardwalk View units limited, so be sure to plan accordingly!

As always, stay tuned to the DVC Shop blog to get all the latest developments from inside the Disney parks and around the Disney Vacation Club resorts!
