Love this place
The pools are wonderful and the hotel is gorgeous. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the lack of affordable food options that weren't fast food (ie, burgers). If you want to sit down for breakfast, it adds up. The rooms are spacious and have refrigerators! The beds are comfortable. And the lobby smells wonderful!

Upscale and family oriented
This will be our 14th visit to Disney World. We have stayed at Caribbean Beach, The Contemporary, The Wilderness Lodge and The Beach Club. We absolutely love the Beach Club, probably for its fantastic pool with the sand on the bottom and the lazy river. Being able to walk over to EPCOT is also a nice perk if you would like to have breakfast in Paris for a fresh croissant or get on Soarin with only a half hour wait when the park opens. We love to read in the relaxing lobby which we would do every evening when returning from the parks. It is not cheap to stay at the Beach Club so you have to watch for deals because the price can fluctuate by a couple of hundred dollars per night. Overall, it is very clean and the staff is very polite. I would definately recommend it and will probably stay there again when we return.

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
If you stay at the Beach Club, one of the advantages is the ability to walk over to EPCOT and have so many dining choices. I would highly recommend getting the park hopper though so you can walk over to EPCOT for breakfast, lunch or dinner but still visit another park.

Disney Resort Stay = No Lines for Rides!
Loved the hotel. It's beautiful and the room was a nice size with two queen size beds for our family of 4. We felt we had plenty of room and storage for our clothes and room to dress etc. Very clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great gift shop with little supermarket in the back where you can buy milk, cereal, eggs, muffins, etc. Rooms have little refrigerators in them. Hotel also has an inexpensive restaurant called Beaches and Cream where you can get hamburger, salads, ice cream at a fair price. Awesome pool. Can bus to all the theme parks and take a ferry to some of them as well. Staying at a Disney Hotel allows you access each night to one of the theme parks an hour prior to opening or a few hours after closing for Disney guests only - NO LINES FOR RIDES! It's cooler at night and with only Disney Resort Guests at the park your longest wait for a ride is 5 minutes!

Not what I expected at Beach Club
I wasn't really impressed with anything at the resort. Our room looked as though it had been through the ringer with scratched up furniture. The room never had that just cleaned feeling even after it was cleaned. It was on the dark side. Their garden view was a tiny balcony that looked at the tops of trees. The pool area was packed couldn't even find a chair to sit on. The dining options at the hotel were not really good. Even the pier for the ferry service was in repair and not available. On the day of check-in when we arrived at the hotel it was 1:30 and didn't get into our room till almost 4:30! Check-in was supposed to be at 3:00. I wouldn't chose this location again. Just not impressed at all.

Slightly overrated
We were there for a leisurely weekend to enjoy the terrific pool but the resort has changed many rules and none are for the better. Now they restrict you from even being near the pool until 9 and both days they opened the pool late. By the time the pool did actually open, it was like a stampede w/guests pushing and shoving to get a lounge chair. It was all very uncivilized. The walls are really thin in this hotel, doors too and the guests are rude with the level of talking they do while walking up and down the halls. Nevermind the kids whose parents allow them to run and scream as they return or leave their rooms. Also, their isn't good coffee to be found anywhere and the store that sells breakfast is like Grand Central Station but with no order. Its complete chaos in there. We also killed three bugs while in the room and one moth.
