Room temps

[Lady Hiss]

Is there a secret to regulating the temperature of WDW rooms? Currently I’m at Yacht Club and am struggling with making the room a consistent temperature. It’s almost always too cold for me, but when I change the thermostat a few degrees higher it becomes a sauna! Very frustrating. Just when I think I’ve got it perfect, the AC kicks in and it’s too chilly again.

Thanks for any help.

It’s going to have a spread of four or five degrees whatever you set it on. So keep that in mind. It will either be a little too warm before it kicks back on or it will be a little too cool before it cycles off. You just have to find the range that is least uncomfortable and set it. It’s not going to stay within just a degree or two.

I usually pack a small fan in my suitcase. Some resorts have a few box fans available so if you don’t have a ceiling fan in the room, ask the front desk if they have any. That might help make you more comfortable.

I love YC, but the heating/ ac system is nuts. I have the same experience as you do. The only solution I’ve come up with is to turn the whole thing off for a few minutes at time. It’s annoying.

No, that’s not it. Of all the resorts we’ve stayed at YC’s system is the worst. They have the room temp preset at 67° if I remember right. The blower is very strong & even in the summer, it’s way too cold. I’ve tried increasing the temp just 2°, it doesn’t just adjust the AC. It actually makes the heat come on! As in, it starts blowing hot air! I’ve never had this problem at any other Disney resort.

Although I don’t recall the YC being any worse than any other resort, and we have stayed there a few times, that sounds very unpleasant for sure and I don’t doubt it has happened. I wonder if BC has the same issue? I suppose there could be individual blowers for the rooms and some could be more powerful than others. I have had the opposite problem a lot, with the fan blowing little to no air at all even though it sounds like it’s running. It’s interesting how different it can be from one room to the next. I think all Disney thermostats are wonky, and haven’t found one that operates as it should at any resort, even new ones like the cabins at the Fort. Very frustrating to set your thermostat on 70 only to have the AC run at 65 or 75 instead.

The temperature regulation is tricky if you want to increase the temperature. If you try to increase it by more than a couple of degrees, the heat will turn on. One trick is to turn the unit off for a little while, then back on at the temp you want. Another trick is to slowly increase the temp one degree at a time. That will help to keep the heater off.
