Hi there, Amanda!
There's no harder decision -- and no decision more fun to make! Except, of course, for where to eat!
Disney's Beach Club Resort is fantastic -- and guess what? So is
Disney's BoardWalk Inn!
The question boils down to one significant amenity, really, since both Resorts are in the same Deluxe class.
If you are coming in the summer - or when it's comfortable for you to swim - the Beach Club really can't be beat. Stormalong Bay is more of a water park than a "hotel pool".
But BoardWalk is adjacent to the nighttime entertainment district, meant for enjoying as a couple or a family. Live entertainment on select nights really brings the area alive, and captures the spirit of that Atlantic promenade. The food stands, shops, and general ambiance can bring a busy day of rides and attractions to a fun and memorable close.
Consider giving BoardWalk a try this time. That way, you'll have had the experience of both, and the next time you visit, you will be able to make a decision based on your stays.
Either way, you can't go wrong!
See you later, celebrator,
