Loved the Yacht Club!

Our quick trip down was great. We booked standard view since we switched to the YC on Saturday before our Wednesday check in. I asked SUe Ellen (DU TA) if it ws worth the extra for WV and she said not really, just see what they have on check in. Am I glad I listened to her! Check in CM said we were assigned a 1st floor room, was that okay? Disappointment must have shown on my face as I asked if there was anything on an upper floor. SHe does her little magic thing with the keyboard and lo and behold we have a third floor lagoon view room! Room number was 3063, full view of the lighthouse and boardwalk, watched Illuminations fireworks from our balcony the first night. Nice, quiet resort. Walked over to the Beach Club, it seemed a whole lot more boisterous over there. Tons of screaming toddlers in the midst of major meltdowns! Noticed that one set of drapes in the hallway between YC and BC had been YANKED down, probably by a child trying to climb them! Didn't take long for maintainence to have the rod and drapes back up. A little disappointed that the only breakfast offerings were either the character breakfast at Cape May or a very small variety of bagels and cereal in a little alcove area next to Cape May. You could refill your mugs there as well. No little "a la carte" place like Roaring Forks at WL and the snack bar at the CR. Stormalong Bay is partially closed, it was too COLD to swim for the most part. I felt sorry for the life guards sitting out there on the offchance that some brave soul might want to try their luck. BRRRRRRRR!

I'm glad you had a great time. We love the Yacht Club. Sorry about the cold and SAB, try the warmer months, you'll love it.

Isn't the Yacht Club Galley still there in the lobby? They had great a great breakfast buffet and also a la carte stuff and a place to refill your mug. Also, right next door from the YC at Fresh in the Dolphin Hotel is THE BEST breakfast on property in my opinion.

We love the Yacht Club.

We're going back April 1st for Spring Break, will be at the CR for that. Probably will be back again in June or so for the other daughter's birthday. May try YC again if SAB is fully open. They are, however, letting guests use the pool at the Boardwalk if they want a slide. Thought that was nice.

Dang it, no one told me that YCG had a la carte stuff! I asked a CM and they directed me to that little alcove place. Would have been nice to be able to stay inside that morning (cold temps) and also to refill my mug before the return trip yesterday. Thanks a bunch for the info for future reference!

The alcove next to the YCG was the place that I meant that had the mug refill and bagels, muffins, etc. I thought you went to some alcove next to Cape May. Don't mind me. LOL

I did go to the alcove by Cape May. No one told me that they refills at THAT alcove. DUH, having a Homer Simpson moment
