Hi Jackie,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Disney's Beach Club Resort is one of my favorite
Walt Disney World Resort Hotels! You can easily walk to both
Epcot and
Disney's Hollywood Studios or take a Water taxi if you prefer. You can also travel to
Magic Kingdom Park by way of the Epcot Monorail, giving you access to 3 Theme Parks without needing to use
Disney Bus Transportation.
Disney's BoardWalk is just a short walk from the Resort and has lots of great entertainment in the evening and, in my opinion, some of the best restaurants on property. My family loves to view
IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth fireworks on the bridge just before the International Gateway entrance to Epcot.
Stormalong Bay has seasonal hours so you will have to ask a Cast Member at the Resort for the operating hours during your visit. There is a restroom next to
Beaches & Cream Soda Shop where you can change out of your bathing suits and into your dry clothes.
I hope this information helps. Please let us know if we can help you with any additional vacation planning questions!
Magical Wishes,
Susan
