Do all deluxe resorts have a "community hall"?

[oceanmarina]

Hi all,

This summer we stayed at Boardwalk villas. A highlight of the trip was the community hall - they had games and crafts for the kids and always a cute Disney movie playing ( the games were both video and air hockey etc). The recreation staff ran it. Do they have these in all the deluxe resorts? This one was right by the quiet pool
In BWV. I've never noticed one in the other deluxe resorts we have stated at. So I was curious if each deluxe resort had it. My son still says he misses going there. They had as ping pong table, bean bag toss games, and some crafts that you could pay to make (like tye dye shirt ). Marina

Community halls are at DVC resorts.

Edit because I found more information. You don't have to be staying DVC to use the community halls (just need to be staying there be it on cash or points) but that is where most are located.

Here is a link https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/recreation/community-halls/ to all the resorts that have one.

Thanks for the info! I went to the link and see that I missed out on two community halls in our past stays - they have one at Bay Lake and Kidani. If we stay at either location again, well be sure to go there. Thabks again!

We did a split stay at both BLT and Kidani on our trip in September. The community hall was my girls favorite! My older daughter said she enjoyed the BLT one better. Papa had taken her down there so i never actually got to see it for myself. Kidani was great cause DH and I could sit on the balcony drinking coffee while the girls were doing crafts. The crafts are so reasonably priced too, a refreshing break from the outrageous process on most WDW fun.

I thought the arcades were very reasonably priced as well.

BCV and BRV (formerly VWL) don't have a Community Hall. SSR and OKW both have one as well. I'm not sure about GFV or PVB. but I don't think so.

They definitely have crafts etc at WL and the Poly. I don't know about calling it "community hall" but they are there.

Poly does not have one.

VWL for sure had something, maybe not with the same name but with the same function. Could be gone now with the construction but they had the building where they had the trains, etc. It was part of the WL tour

The old Iron Spike Room, now Carolwood Pacific Railroad Room, wasn't a community hall. Just a room with a checkerboard and a fireplace and a few of Walt's trains in display cases. Community Halls are staffed and they have games or activities going on most of the day and into the night. That didn't happen in the this space. Just a nice sitting room.

At the WL, they have occasional crafts in the Cub's Den (kids' club room). But, again, that isn't a Community Hall. At WL, they kept the DVDS that members could borrow in the store, not in the Carolwood Pacific Railroad room or Cub's Den.
