Hello Brenda!
Welcome to planDisney! I love
Disney's Beach Club Resort! It is one of my favorite resorts due to its beauty, amazing pool, and extreme proximity to
EPCOT. My favorite part of my stay is walking back to my room munching on
Festival treats and seeing the fireworks.
You are correct in that due to your excellent decision of staying on-site you have the
ability to book 60 days prior for your entire trip (up to 10 days). Now, as to how many people you want to include in your
reservation that is up to you! You can book reservations for any party size that you desire! It is important, however, that the person making the reservation be on the Disney's Beach Club Resort reservation so that they can use their benefits! I have to say though that grabbing larger parties for a dining reservation has gotten harder recently so make sure to be ready at 7:00 AM 60 days before your first day at the Resort and secure the reservations for your entire trip. Make sure to book the hardest-to-get reservation FIRST as they will disappear first.
Let me know if you have any more questions. I have been very successful in making reservations for large parties and would love to help you some more. I still reminisce about the time I got a reservation for 13 at
'Ohana! That was just pixie-dusted magic!
I hope you have a magical time!
