Resort Thread Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB Resorts

Just wanted to note: 3 people just posted that cabana rentals are open for July. They both said they were told that they’re already sold out as of today for first week of July. The one assured that the Cm can see they’re booked. Not sure if they’re getting incorrect information or not, but for those that were asking I just wanted to share. A couple others said they’re just not available, so take it for what it is.

Ah, progress!! Love seeing the pool (and Hanna's) open. I'm sure the slides and cabanas will be available again in the upcoming days and weeks. At least the pool itself is open. It'll be interesting to see if folks notice any changes or improvements.
 
Just wanted to note: two people just posted that cabana rentals are open for early July. They both said they were told that they’re already sold out as of today for first week of July. Not sure if they’re getting incorrect information or not, but for those that were asking I just wanted to share.
I tried twice today and both CM I spoke too seemed more informed and said cabanas are NOT opened yet for June/Early July. I have spoken to well over 12 CMs for Cabana rental over the last 2 months of trying to get a reservation and they are not all trained equally. It's hit or miss if you get one who knows the situation. I will try again tomorrow.

There are 24 posts and growing… there are a bunch saying that they were told they are booked and then the other half saying that they were told they’re not available yet. A handful of them are insisting the cast members are telling them that they can see they are actually booked. It’s crazy that everybody is getting different answers.
 
Since no one has claimed to have a Cabana booked for end of June/ early July, I'm inclined to believe the cast members who have said they are not available to book yet. This could change by the hour though, it will change in their software and that would be anytime or over night or next week. I'm just gonna keep trying daily! It would be nice if everyone got the same message and information.
 
Stormalong Bay Pool & Hurricane Hanna’s Reopen Following 5-Month Refurbishment

The very popular Stormalong Bay pool is now open following a 5-month refurbishment at Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort. The pool received a full refresh, drained of water and sand during the refurbishment. The refurbishment also reportedly included some significant work on the pool pumps. We made it out to Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort earlier today to take a look!

The Stormalong Bay pool is an attraction all its own! The pool area is spread out across 3 acres of space between the Yacht Club and Beach Club lobbies. A portion of the pool area has real sand, and the visual icon is the giant shipwreck, home to a 230-foot-long waterslide. That makes it one of the highest hotel slides at Walt Disney World.

With 795,000 gallons of water comprising an impressive complex of pools that range from swirling to placid, open to secluded, and cool to warm, every member of your family can find a place to make a splash at Stormalong Bay.
While the pool is open, along with the nearby Hurricane Hanna’s Waterside Bar and Grill, the slide remains under refurbishment and off-limits to guests. The slide appeared to be the area receiving the most attention during our previous update on the refurbishment. Here’s a look around!

Yay!! Time to cancel my Swolphin backup! Glad they didn’t wait on the skid to open the pool complex.

Will be interesting to hear from vets if any old broken features return. I recall reading something about bubbling waters in part of the pool that broke and never got fixed?

I was just wondering the same thing, if the sinking sands & bubbling waters areas are working like they used to. Hopefully someone who remembers how they used to be will let us know.
