    I received my magic bands yesterday!! 20 more days woohoo Is it possible to get to Beaches and Cream from Epcot? Staying at POP Century can you tell me best building we have a standard pool view would like to be close to buses and food court? thank you

    Hi, Shenell! Are you ready for the #CoolestSummer ever? Your trip is so close, I bet you can smell the popcorn and turkey legs already! You have picked a groovy Walt Disney World Resort hotel for your stay. I hope you have lots of sunscreen and your bathing suits packed for your trip. Once your family sees that splashtastic pool just outside the room, you are going to have a hard time keeping them out of it!

    There is a great Room Finder tool on TouringPlans.com. I use this tool often to help me figure out where our room may be located, and to help me determine what could be key room requests to get a good location. Looking at the Room Finder, I see that Standard Pool View rooms at Disney's Pop Century Resort are usually located in Buildings 1, 2, and 3 of the 50's Section and in Buildings 7 and 9 of the 80's Section. When completing Online Check-In within 60 days of your arrival, Guests are allowed up to two Room Requests. Remember that these are only requests and are not guaranteed, but can assist the Room Assigner with your room placement. In your case, try checking off the 50's Section and Close to Transportation as your Room Request. I have stayed in a room in this area and had a very short walk to Everything POP Shopping & Dining to fill up our refillable mugs.

    Beaches & Cream Soda Shop at Disney's Beach Club Resort is a short walk from Epcot's International Gateway. When you are in the World Showcase section of Epcot, head towards the bridge that connects the United Kingdom and France Pavilions. On the United Kingdom side of the bridge, there is a walkway that heads away from the heart of Epcot and serves as an exit from/entrance to the park. You will find Disney's Beach Club Resort just a short 5-minute walk ahead on the right. Beaches & Cream Soda Shop can be found near this Resort hotel's feature pool, Stormalong Bay, which is right along the walkway that links it to Epcot.

    I hope you have a great trip, Shenell!

Hi, I'm Brandy, a speech pathologist and busy driver of daughters to marching band and dance events. My Annual Pass is used often to check out new Disney must-dos and resort changes. I enjoy giving advice about itinerary and FastPass+ planning, Epcot's fantastic festivals, Memory Maker, and transportation at the Resort. The time I spend at Walt Disney World Resort is distinctive because it is the one place I can forget other responsibilities and focus on having the time of my life with my family!
