Yacht and Beach club Concierge?

[twinmomplus2new]

Does anyone out there have the itinerary planners e-mail?

And specifically Goofyjoofy/Tammy Mcmann I think you both have stayed in each. Which is better?
Currently I am booked at Beach Club my Dad at Yacht Club, I figured it was best for the kids to be at BC and he at The Yacht club.

Anyone care to illuminate me as to the main differances?
Club offerings? Thanks!!

I'd say that the best situation would probably be for all of you to stay at the Beach Club. I've stayed at both resorts multiple times in regular rooms and once in Concierge at the Yacht Club. From what I've read the offerings in Concierge are pretty much the same at both and otherwise the hotels are very similar in structure and atmosphere. The main differences are the colors (Beach uses pale peaches and blues while Yacht uses grays and blues), the restaurants, and the locations. They're HUGE resorts from one end to the other and with all the walking you'll be doing in the parks, you may not look forward to walking from one end of the Beach to the far end of the Yacht Club to see each other, which is why I suggest staying at the same resort.

The Beach is the closest hotel to EPCOT and can be a very short walk if you're staying in the right section and personally I think it has a more pleasant atmosphere overall. Yacht Club looks a bit drab in comparison. But on the other hand, if you prefer MGM to EPCOT, Yacht Club is closer to the boat dock. I never noticed a huge difference in the number of kids at one vs. the other.

There was only one room in each available for the discount price. It will be worth it for me to walk rather than pay rack. I figured I would keep checking back on availability as it gets closer. But, wanted to snag these rooms as I really wanted the epcot resorts!

Thanks for your advice!
