I still don't have the activities schedule but a friend sent me a copy of the special activities for 4th of July at the resort

We are staying at the BC 8/24 thru 9/3. Some days we will spend the first half of the day around the pool. We have a 13, 13 and 7 year old. Do they have things for them to do around the pool area. Is it mostly swimming/slides or are there activities?

Yes Netting has been put in place. I have seen pictures of it at the GF and at the Poly. Since the fences were the same, I believe the addition of the netting is also the same

I was just at the Beach Club and yes they have netting, they did have the beach open during the day but you could not go on it at night.[/QUOTE]

Pic from the Poly. Assuming it looks the same everywhere?

Here is one from the Beach Club. It is kind of blurry because I cropped it trying to get a close up of the fence.

It's from Anthology Candles and the scent is called Beach Club. It's amazing!

I loved the smell of the lobby

FYI guys, Anthology has a 15% off sale until July 5th - FREEDOM15 is the code. Can't wait for my Beach Club and Main Street Bakery candles!

So... This is new!!!

I don't know whether this is permanent or just a temporary trial, but good news, especially for Yacht Club guests

This is good news! I don't know if anyone remembers this, but I stayed at the BC numerous time in the 1990's and Beaches and Cream was open then for quick service breakfast.

We used to buy breakfast at Beaches and Cream and take it back to the room for the kids to eat while everyone got ready in the morning.

Thank you! Just ordered my birthday present to myself! Hopefully will help me make it until our BC trip at end of month!

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to figure out a couple of things for my upcoming trip (10/27-11/7), a split stay with the second half of it (probably 11/2-11/7) at the Beach or Yacht Club.
In an earlier post I mentioned there were no rooms available through the Disney website at the YC for those dates so we figured we'd go for the BC.

Now, a friend recommended I try an agent and I got an excellent price quote for the YC (they didn't even have BC rooms available). It seems almost too cheap!
Is this because of the refurb work going on? Would you guys take a chance on it?
I've looked through as many refurb posts as I could find but I don't see much information on what will be in future months.

As I'm a first timer to these resorts, I'd love your opinion
Thank you!

Could you post the name of this agency... My husband and I would love to try the Yacht Club this fall!

We were there during the Beaches & Cream breakfast trial, July 2009.

I remember! Remember the gigantic Mickey donuts??!! How about the free coffee in the BC lobby?

The Disboards are owned by a travel business and one of their requests is that we don't promote certain competing agencies on the boards.

Does the room request, close to elevator, mean the main elevator? We want to be close to lobby, but there is no selection for lobby.

Hope this works...my first post ever!

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to your question, but I wanted to say welcome to the DIS. I'm glad you found this thread. It's an excellent source of information and probably one of the nicest threads on the boards. Have a great trip!
