Resort Thread Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB Resorts

Thank you so much for taking the time to check that! We booked our YC trip in August with a special travel agency deal and our standard room is $255/night, so it doesn't look like the AP rate will beat that.

WOW, definitely not! Congrats on that rate!!!

 

[Hopefully]

Anyone there now that could answer this for me?

Does anyone know if Cape May Cafe still rotates certain items (fried shrimp, fried calamari, etc) and if so, what items and what days? The online menu used to tell me but I can't find it anymore. What about the cod nuggets? Still only on certain days?

Yes they still rotate the fried seafood options. I don't know what is on which night.
I would post this question on the Restaurants Forum, not here on the Resorts Forum.

Thanks. I did ask on the Restaurants Forum as well. Was just hoping that if someone was staying at BC, they could ask for me. That's why I posted it here.

A Blood Orange marg from La Cava would taste awfully nice right about now...

Is there some reason why I can't pull up Yacht Club on MDE right now? Temporary glitch or something else?

Help me out here, YC/BC veterans. I just saw another round of reports about Captain's Grille moving to Ariel's. For the LIFE of me, I canNOT remember having seen Ariel's on our previous trip. Can someone provide me with landmarks? It isn't even that I want to have a meal there, I just hate being clueless.

Oh my. I would love to stay at BC for our 2018 trip but didn't think I could afford it ($430 per night for just DD and I seems excessive, but $255 would be much more reasonable). Would you mind sending me a private note with your TA's name? : )

Ariels is right next to the Marthas Vineyard Lounge, technically on the BC side. If you're coming from the BC lobby, walk past Cape May and around the corner will be the entrance to Ariels. If you're coming from YC, head towards Beaches and Cream and it will be inside once you've past B&C.

Quick question. Last August we stayed at the BC and loved it. We had a nice room but it had a tiny balcony. This August we are staying at the YC and really want a large balcony (to sit on during the rain storms. lol). Do we need to request one at the YC or is pretty much a given?

Got it, but it doesn't show up on the BC/YC websites at all, other than the reference when you look at the page for Captain's Grille. Is it new?

I see that it does not show under Explore Resort Hotels, but if you select BC and let it price, you can then change your search to YC at that point, and YC will show pricing and availability. It looks like it is indeed one of those glitches!

Thanks for the description!

Someone posted a picture of Ariel's a few pages back. Try putting Ariel in the search window for this thread.

No, you do not need to request it.

The only room I know of without the larger balcony is 5163, which is a club level water view room.

Thank you all for your assistance and INFINITE patience.

I am thisclose to booking it, not telling DS, then giving him a choice the morning of the reservation as to whether or not he wants to go. Eugene / Flynn Ryder is my Disney Prince crush and this just sounds perfect.

Ariel's is just past Cape May, well actually just past the bathrooms on the way to the YC.

If you decide that morning not to go, you will be charged $10/person no show fee.
