SPLURGE! Beachcomber Shack for a day

[4under4]

On our upcoming trip, we are driving through the night to get to our happy place, and then heading to Typhoon Lagoon after we check in at WL.

So last night I had the brilliant idea (if I do say so myself) to splurge on a beachcomber shack. DH & I are good about switching off during our overnight drives, and we can both doze well in the car, but it is exhausting & we do need to recharge the next day. Seems like a nice shady cabana with drinks delivered as needed is just the ticket!

If I were to splurge at Typhoon Lagoon it would be on the private surfing

Great idea! Enjoy

We did this in April, we LOVED it.

This is definitely a win win we really thought it was money well spent.

we haven't done the Beachcomber Shack, but last year we had a Polar Patio at Blizzard Beach. We definitely thought it was worth it. We had the best day, were not stressed at all about finding seats, getting to our locker, etc. We were on the DDP and when our attendant brought us lunch, we did not really want the dessert. She told us we didn't have to have it right then and to just let her know when we were ready, so about two hours later we were able to ask for Mickey Ice Cream bars as our dessert that went with our DDP! DH is a a big water park lover, so to feel like a king for the day at one of his very favorite places meant the world to him (I'd reserved it as a surprise for him).

Told DS (12) about our splurge (surprise for everyone else!) and he gave me the biggest hug! I love making my guys happy!

Can you provide the cost of the Beachcomber shack and the amenities it includes? Thank you!

Ours was $300+, Spring Break time though.

The price changes based on season, but ours with tax was $345.

It includes:

~ A covered cabana for 6 with padded chairs
~ A cooler filled with ice & water bottles (refilled as needed)
~ Towels (replaced as needed)
~ 6 Refillable mugs
~ A locker in the cabana
~ An attendant that will take care of the above, as well as make food/drink runs for you.

Would it be weird if I reserved a shack for only two of us?
It sounds so nice. I don't mind splurging.

We book one every time we go. As pasty white New Englanders I need to know I have a nice shady spot. I won't go without renting one. Not a splurge, a necessity. My family of 5 loves it.

What a great day you will have.

I don't think it would be weird at all! If it will make the two of you happy, then go for it!

Thanks for the reassurance!

Are the shacks located in one area of the park or in various locations around the lazy river perimeter?

Look here on the map linked for boxes with a 'B.'

There are 2 areas... one by the wave pool, and one by the lazy river (near getaway glen).

How far ahead did you make the reservation for the shack?
