Disney's BoardWalk Inn to Undergo Refurbishment Through 2026​

Disney's BoardWalk Inn will enter a new phase of refurbishment beginning in late November 2025, with work continuing through 2026.

Disney shared that the project will affect select areas of the resort, though the company has not specified which spaces are included or the scope of what will be updated.

You may see or hear work during daytime hours once the project begins. Disney notes that most amenities at Disney's BoardWalk Inn will stay available during the refurbishment period, including dining, recreation, and merchandise locations. At this stage, there's no timeline for when specific areas will close or what changes are planned.

Refurbishments at Disney's BoardWalk Inn have been ongoing in recent years as Disney updates guest rooms, public spaces, and dining offerings across its resort portfolio. This upcoming work appears to be the next step, but details remain limited.

Fingers crossed for a better quick service with chicken tenders that don’t require a walk to Beach Club.

That is sorely needed.

OOOOHHHHH! Is this a Club Room with that mimosa? We have been wanting to stay at Boardwalk for a few years now but every time we go to book they only have a cottage(I forget the actual room type available - which only sleeps 2) and we usually travel with three of us (either us and our son, or us and my mom, who enjoys Club level but needs to be close by due to mobility issues. This view - whatever it is - I'm sold!

Is this a Club Room with that mimosa?

Sorry but no this is a view from a Boardwalk Villa balcony overlooking Leaping Horse Libations and the Luna Park Pool.

This view - whatever it is - I'm sold!

The good news is that you can get this great view for a price. Just purchase Disney DVC points or book directly with Disney for a 1 BR Villa or a Deluxe Studio with a Garden / Pool view.

Just wanted to follow up on this. I still have not seen any work started to date. I even walked back over yesterday for lunch and nothing. I will be back again very soon and can follow up then, if not reported by blogs before hand.

Thanks. 4th of a July on a saturday is probably going to be somewhat mobbed i would think but I am confident I will get the 3rd and 4th its so far away.
Worst case we spend the 3rd and 4th resort hopping and staring at the animals on the savannah. Its a win win!

My wife has been hinting that she really liked the boardwalk robes in the gift shop from our trip in September- can they be purchased after the fact and shipped?

I love that the Boardwalk got its energetic vibe back. When we stayed December 2023 it was still on the very mellow side post-2020. Our 2 stays since the Boardwalk has been much more lively, especially in the evenings.

We stayed the week before thanksgiving and gotta agree. At least in the evening the boardwalk is coming back. Live entertainment and lots of activities. That said, however the DVC side is still pretty much of a ghost town. Easy to find a quiet bench to sit and relax.

New Snack Location on Disney’s BoardWalk​

A new snack kiosk has opened on Disney’s BoardWalk. The location serves some prepackaged popcorn, including an exclusive flavor to the BoardWalk.


The new kiosk is located on Walt Disney World’s BoardWalk near Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs. Disney’s BoardWalk is a quarter-mile promenade of dining, shops, and nightlife.



The menu offers several prepackaged popcorn options, as well as fan-favorite Mickey Pretzels, Premium Ice Cream Bars, and Premium Ice Cream Sandwiches. A selection of beers, seltzers, and cocktails are available, as well.

• Saltwater Taffy Popcorn (exclusive to BoardWalk Inn) – $7.49
• Classic Kettle Corn – $6.99
• Cheddar Popcorn – $6.99

Saltwater Taffy Popcorn – $7.49​

We wanted to this to be unique and flavorful, but it doesn’t really taste like saltwater taffy at all. There is some faint banana flavor in some of the kernels and maybe even some cotton candy, though it’s hard to say. Overall, it’s more like a sweeter version of kettle basic kettle corn.


There are also two other flavors of the Popcorn Junkie brand available: Classic Kettle Popcorn and Cheesy Cheddar Popcorn. Both are also in prepackaged bags.

In other BoardWalk news, Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs announced the return of their Fried King’s Hawaiian Rolls not long after it was replaced with a Salmon Dog.
