It’s time for another What’s New segment! Today, we’re going to be taking a trip over to the Yacht and Beach Club Resorts to catch up on all the construction, food, and entertainment happening. Let’s get started!

What’s that? There’s a review of the Goofy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake?!

Goofy Peanut Butter Cupcake

While we’d grown to love the Reese’s Pieces cupcake, the adorable Goofy chocolate cake and peanut butter buttercream (!!!) replacement is just so gawrsh darn good!

Inside the Goofy Cupcake

You can pick one up at the Beach Club Marketplace for $5.99 or a Disney Dining Plan snack credit. The little Goofy hat and ears make us want to say “ah-hyuck” and chuckle with joy!

Speaking of updates, the Beach Club is getting a well-deserved upgrade!

Beach Club Construction

The first floor entrance is currently closed as it gets a little refresh.

New fiber optic wiring is going in, which affects the fire alarms, and may affect data usage and internet connections according to the cast members we spoke with.

First Floor Refurbishments Under Way!

As always, there are lots of exciting activities going on around the Beach Club! Captain Hook’s Pirate Adventure allows kids ages 4-12 to go on a nightly quest for hidden treasure.

Martha’s Vineyard Painting Class

Martha’s Vineyard Lounge is still offering a $35 painting class for guests ages 12 and older at 4:30 PM on Fridays!

A new sign featuring Mickey and friends was posted for July! What do you think you’ll paint?

Before heading over to the Yacht Club, we caught up with Donald and Daisy Duck strolling along after breakfast at Cape May Cafe! Couple goals!!! Note that Donald and Daisy don’t usually meet and greet outside at the Beach Club, but we just happened to get lucky with a little character training session!

Now, it’s off to the Yacht Club!

On top of the previously mentioned Goofy Cupcake, The Market at Ale & Compass is also featuring the Foot-Long Chili Cheese All-Beef Hot Dog for $11.49 without tax!

We’re about to have a doggone good time eating that! YUM!

Anybody want to take a dip in the pool?

Walkway Construction Sign

The Yacht and Beach Club walkway by the pool cabanas is currently being repaved.

Area Blocked Off Near the Pool Cabanas

We guess that means definitely no running by the pool! Instead, you could hop on over to cast your vote in the latest Daily Disney Poll at The Market at Ale & Compass. (Shh, don’t tell the other bunnies, but our vote’s on Thumper, too!)

It’s always a good time for some great wine! Over at Yachtsman Steakhouse, The Wonderful World of Wine had their most recent tasting on July 10th where guests were able to take tasting notes on the servings being offered. Note that each tasting has a Disney themed name!

We’re ready for the next one… And another glass, please!

Taste Notes

Forget Waldo! Where’s Mickey???

Yacht Club Main Lobby Globe

We stopped by the Yacht Club main lobby to see if we could find the Hidden Mickey on the resort globe.

Guess what? We did! Were you able to spot it?
