Disney World hotels have a lot going on right now…and by a lot…we mean a LOT of construction.
This is especially true with Disney World’s deluxe hotels. Many of them are under construction in some way. Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting a brand new Disney Vacation Club Villas building. The Grand Floridian Resort & Spa has been under construction for what feels like FOREVER. There’s a ton of construction at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn to bring TWO new dining spots to the area. And, well, another Disney World hotel will be undergoing construction in 2025.
An announcement on Disney World’s website notifies visitors that some guest rooms at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort will be under refurbishment from January through May 2025. Now, we don’t know if some rooms are going to get an update, refresh, or a re-theme, but something is definitely happening early next year.
Meanwhile, we’d also like to remind you that the pool shared by Disney’s Yacht Club and Disney’s Beach Club Resorts, Stormalong Bay, will be closed around the same time — from January through June 2025. That means you’ll want to take both construction projects into consideration if you’re making plans for a Disney World trip during that time. This is one of the best pools in Disney World, but both resorts have other pool options as well.
If you have already booked a stay for 2025 at Disney’s Yacht Club, you may want to reconsider and book a different hotel during that time, depending on how sensitive you are to noise and if you have plans to use the pool.
