Hey there, Erica! Welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you’re ready to make a splash planning your Walt Disney World vacation, so let’s dive in!
Disney’s
Yacht and
Beach Club Resorts are a favorite for my family, and
Stormalong Bay is the main reason why! This 750,000-gallon aquatic wonderland has it all: a sand-bottom pool, a lazy river perfect for floating, and even a shipwreck-themed waterslide that’s tons of fun. Adults can sip and chill at
Hurricane Hanna’s pool bar. I highly recommend the frosty Frosé!
In the hotter months, Stormalong Bay’s operating hours are typically 10 AM to 10 PM daily, giving you plenty of time to soak up the magic. If you’re looking for an even later dip, the quiet pools like Admiral or Dunes Cove Pool may stay open until 11 PM. While these pools are more low-key, they’re great for a relaxing soak in the hot tub after a busy day. Just keep in mind that pool hours can occasionally ebb and flow, so be sure to check the schedule during your stay!
If you want to really kick back, consider
renting a poolside cabana for a day. With a dedicated Cast Member to handle food and drink orders, plus a shady spot to relax, it’s the ultimate luxury. These do fill up quickly, so make sure to snag one when your 60-day booking window opens!
Here’s a fun extra perk for your 2025 trip—
complimentary water park admission on your check-in day for Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests. It’s like adding another wave of fun to your vacation!
I hope you have a splashtastic time, Erica! If you need help wading through more trip-planning details, just let me know.
