Entertainment
With its Coney Island-style theming, this boardwalk has plenty to experience! Lined with shops, restaurants, live entertainment and carnival games the nightlife here is always exciting!
Walk to EPCOT or Hollywood Studios
Location is a big draw for the Boardwalk! Walk or take a leisurely boat ride to either of the nearby parks. You can’t go wrong with how close in proximity you’ll be to these two parks.
Room Variety
As with any Disney Deluxe Resort, you’re going to have access to a variety of rooms and villas that can sleep 4 to 12 people!

The Price
This Deluxe Resort comes with a deluxe price tag! If you can take advantage of all the amenities, then you can certainly justify the cost.
The Pool
The main pool area pales in comparison to the neighboring Beach Club Resort’s pool. But if you like a pool with a little less pizzazz– then maybe this resort is for you!
Nightlife Noise
The Boardwalk entertainment and nightlife draws in the crowds, which adds to the overall noise level. If noise at night isn’t your thing, consider booking a garden room away from all the hustle and bustle.
Should You Stay at the Boardwalk Resort?

Location and entertainment are the big draws with this resort, but they come with a price!
If the Boardwalk scene isn’t high on your priority list, then consider staying right next door at Disney’s Yacht Club– where you’ll still receive the benefit of an excellent location, but not the busyness of the Boardwalk.
If the price point of this deluxe resort isn’t within your budget, consider Disney’s Pop Century Resort, where you can celebrate American fads through the decades.
