    Hi! We are staying at Beach Club resort the second week of November 2026. The main goal of staying there is to be able to walk directly to the International entrance of Epcot. Will that be affected? What renovations will be going on at Beach Club then?

    Hey there, Amanda, and welcome to planDisney! 

    You're going to fall totally in love with Disney's Beach Club Resort. During a family vacation, the room type I wanted at a different resort led me to stay there, and it's now one of my favorite places to stay on all of Walt Disney World property. Being just steps away from the International Gateway of EPCOT is one of the best perks.

    It's been announced that refurbishment at this beachside oasis will last through 2026. Typically, those types of refurbishment projects in the EPCOT Resort Area don't prevent Guests from accessing EPCOT or Disney's Hollywood Studios. While I can't say for sure which building specifically they'll be working on at that time, I can say that the company does its best to keep Guest inconveniences to a minimum while they work. 

    Pro-tip: Early November is a pretty exciting time at the Walt Disney World Resort. You can catch the tail end of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival and the beginning of Christmas decorations around the property.

    Amanda, put your mind at ease. I'm sure your vacation will still be just as magical. If you have any other questions, please feel free to come back for another chat!

    Happy planning!
