Hey there, Matthew! Welcome back to planDisney!
It sounds as if your holiday planning is off to a practically perfect start. My family and I absolutely
love staying at
Disney's Yacht Club Resort. With its elegant nautical theming, gorgeous rooms, fantastic dining options, location within walking distance to both EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios, and arguably the best pool in all of
Walt Disney World Resort, it's the perfect home away from home right in the middle of the magic. Our absolute favorite downtime activity is
renting a poolside cabana to have a fabulous home base at Stormalong Bay to kick our feet up, get out of the sun and relax while still having the best Disney day. I LOVE cabana day, and I'm thrilled to help you plan yours!
While in the past, Guests were able to rent poolside cabanas for a half day, now, the cabanas are only available for full-day rentals. I don't know about you, Matthew, but for me, this was the best news! A full day in a fabulous cabana alongside Stormalong Bay?! Yes, please!
The last time my family and I rented a cabana at Yacht Club, we arrived right at 10 a.m. and mobile ordered a delicious to-go breakfast from
Ale & Compass Restaurant to enjoy poolside. The Crab Cake Benedict with breakfast potatoes and the Dark Chocolate Waffles are to die for! For lunch and cocktail time, we ordered
Hurricane Hanna's Waterside Bar and Grill from our server, and throughout the day, we snacked on the fruit and dessert trays that were included with the cabana rental. We even grabbed an amazing cheese tray from
Beach Club Marketplace to enjoy in between waterslide rides and splashing. Cabana is simply the BEST. DAY. EVER!
I hope this was helpful, Matthew, and I hope you have the most magical and memorable holiday and the most relaxing cabana day! Please feel free to stop by any time with any planning questions you may have along the way. You've got a friend in me!
Blue skies and sunshine,
Mandy
