We have just returned from our 18 night stay at the Yacht Club and have to say we loved it and it's now our favourite resort ( previously stayed POR and the
Poly).
We booked a garden view room but were upgraded to water view, room 3007 at the far end of the resort. Unfortunately we had to move rooms half way through our stay due to a problem with the air conditioning unit. We were moved to 3017. The guy who dealt with us on the phone about the room move could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Both rooms were great, I will post room views after I sort out our photos.
Disney transport was great, maximum time we waited on a bus over the whole trip was 15 minutes. Taxis were readily available. Buses to and from the dreaded DTD were ok although we did avoid late nights there and the fact there is only one stop there at the moment helps, the buses for DTD and the really early bus to MK made stops at the boardwalk and for DTD ( the swan and dolphin). It was fantastic being able to walk to and from Epcot and the studios. We also walked to Fantasia golf.
In terms of food we had
ddp so ate in a few local places. The flying fish was our favourite. Cape may dinner was great, our first time eating crabs legs, my 6 year old loved them... Cape may breakfast was also good as was the breakfast buffet at Captains Grill. We ate at the Yachtsman last year and were not wowed so we didn't bother this year.
Quick service, Hurricane Hannah's was fine. Beach club marketplace flatbreads were good. We felt that Captain Cooks had better options last year but it was all still good, filling the mugs was a bit of a trek though. Boardwalk pizza was good, 2 quick service credits for a whole pizza, 2 desserts and 2 drinks and boardwalk bakery was great.
The pool was great, ds loved the sand bottom bit, the little slide ( didn't do the big one) and the volleyball. We also had one night in the quiet pool where it was just us. We had no problems piggies claiming all the loungers!
Overall a truly magical trip after a stressful year ( just finished a post graduate qualification to become a teacher). Totally spoiled now and not sure I would be keen to stay elsewhere, other than maybe the beach club or boardwalk. Think we will have a year off Disney and maybe return 2016 for 3 weeks!
Thanks for all the help and advice on here if totally added to the magic!
that would be so exciting!!
Sounds great! We're taking a quick 5 day/4 night stay at the YC in September, too.
