Beach Club Newbie!!! Help

[lovmy2girls]

Staying at the Beach Club for the first time. Have booked a water view, need help. Which floor and section has the best views, would like to put a request on my ressie and hopefully will get somewhat close to it. Kind of nervous because I know nothing about this resort, other than it has a great pool.

Any other suggestions would be great, or just helpful hints. Thanks.

I like to just wait and see what they give us. We stayed in the Beach Club Villas. We were quite a ways from the pool area, but we were very close to where our car was parked. This made it so easy to bring our luggage in and make any swaps we needed to. We were also very close to another pool. It wasn't as fun as the big beach pool, but it was very private and peaceful, great for relaxing at the end of the day. We didn't have a water view, in fact, we were on ground level, but the grounds are all nicely landscaped. And we were barely in our room! Another great thing about the Beach Club is the location. Being right on the boardwalk, there are lots of things to see and do just by walking. Don't worry too much, you'll love your room wherever it is!

yes. please let us know how you find the BC when you get back !

I am also concerned when someone here said the BC has no foodcourt...
so how does one just pick up a quick bite to eat ?
whether its breakfast/lunch dinner ?

for those that know POR, i know that there foodcourt is open from
morning till night , so food can be found when you are hanging out
at the resort !

thanks !

As far as other suggestions or helpful hints, it is a 5-minute walk from International Gateway at Epcot, so we enjoy making ADR's for dinners in Epcot countries and walking there almost every night for dinner and rides and to watch Illuminations. It is THE best feeling to be able to walk back to BC after Illuminations -- SO relaxing and easy! Another thing we enjoy is watching Fantasmic and then walking back to BC afterward. The boat line is normally very long, so we buy a snack before leaving MGM and enjoy the walk back to BC -- it's very peaceful and quiet.

There are so many other reasons to love BC besides the convenience to Epcot and MGM. There is, of course, the sandy-bottom pool which is great for young children. Keeps my toddlers busy for hours. There is Cape May character breakfast right in the BC lobby. There are movies on the beach at night. You can walk to the boardwalk in 5 minutes and enjoy all the fun things there, such as surrey bike rentals, great dining, bakery, ice cream and candy, ESPN Club, take-out pizza window, live entertainment such as magicians, carnival-type games, face painting and hair braiding, etc. Tons to do all within walking distance. The parks may close, but there are always things to do in the Epcot resort area, it seems.
