The Disney Beach Club Villas are inspired
by the casual elegance of the mid-Atlantic seaside homes
of the early 20th century,
This Disney Vacation Club property was
designed by noted architect Robert A.M. Stern
and features beautiful pastel colors, intricate
wooden accents and whimsical "stick-style" architecture.
This resort shares many amenities with its
sister resorts, the Yacht and Beach Club
resorts. It is situated on six acres adjacent
to the Beach Club, and is in the convenient
Epcot Resorts area. Guests can walk from
the Beach Club Villas to the Beach Club via
beautifully-decorated breezeways.

EPCOT:
One of the best selling features of the Beach
Club Villas is its proximity to Epcot. A
short three-minute walk and you're at the
International Gateway at the World Showcase
entrance to Epcot. Even when entering the
park before the World Showcase "officially" opens,
Cast Members guide guests to the Future
World section of Epcot. This is also great
for avoiding the throngs of people leaving
Epcot after Illuminations. If you prefer,
you can also take a Friendship Boat ride
to Epcot from the Yacht/Beach Club dock area.
Be aware that the boats can take much longer
than walking.

the bus, a service shared with the Beach
and Yacht Club Resorts. If you are already
in Epcot, take the Monorail to the TTC and
transfer to the MK Monorail.

to Hollywood Studios. The launches make stops at the Boardwalk Resorts
and the Swan and Dolphin hotels as well. There is also

Kingdom/Blizzard Beach: Buses transport guests to these
parks. Be aware that the bus also makes stops at the
