The Yacht Club is next to Disney's Beach Club and shares access to a 3-acre pool and lazy river exclusive to guests of these two resorts.Jacqueline Dole
I recently stayed by myself at Disney's Yacht Club resort for $750 a night.
My room had a great balcony and Yacht Club has an amazing pool and lazy river.
I recently stayed at Disney's Yacht Club resort, a deluxe resort located in the Epcot area of Disney World.
The resort is themed to feel like an upscale New England-style hotel with nautical touches throughout the lobby and hotel rooms. When I visited, I paid $750 a night for my standard-view room with two queen-size beds and a balcony.
I chose to splurge on this resort because I was traveling by myself. I love being a short walk away from dining locations and bars when I'm traveling alone and this location and its pool area simply cannot be beat.
Here's what my stay was like and why Disney's Yacht Club resort remains my favorite hotel on the property.

Overall, Yacht Club is ideal for folks who want to spend most of their time at the resort or the nearby parks.
