Thanks for the info. I would like them to get scooters, but they are proud and independent and my 81-year-old folks say scooters are "for old people".
Ha ha ha, never argue with a senior - you can't win!Thanks for the info. I would like them to get scooters, but they are proud and independent and my 81-year-old folks say scooters are "for old people".
When is your trip?
Is it a Beach Club Villa split stay with POP?
We will be at Beach Club Villas 10/27-10/31. We start our stay at POP on 10/24. We can not wait!
Another question for everyone. We are planning on doing grocery delivery when we arrive at POP. When we transfer to BCV will any cold items be stored properly? OR should we consider doing two deliveries, one at Pop for non perishables and then any cold items when we get to BCV?
We are doing a split stay between BCV and Pop the first week of Nov. Anyone know if bell services still moving bags between resorts? If not can we bring our bags on the skyliner and transfer them ourselves?
TIA
Must be a popular weekend on here. Wife and I will be at YC Oct 16-19, and have a cabana for the 17th!
Scheduled for a 1Br BCV for 11/15-11/19 and really looking forward to it! Based on my research, it sounds like the views aren't much to write home about but are there any suggestions for room requests?
Good morning! Thank you to everyone who was posting on here prior to our trip! It was very helpful. We went to WDW Sept. 13-20, and work has been super hectic since my return, so I'm just now getting on the DisBoards again!
We absolutely adored the YC and would stay here again in a heartbeat!
I have started a trip report mainly to share our experiences with things since the WDW re-opening, but there are details about YC as well. If anyone would like to read along or has any questions feel free to check it out. It's titled "Retirement Means I'm Going to Disney! The COVID Edition."

Is the Compass shop open right now? Anyone know if the Marketplace is open too at BC? TIA
I just managed to get a cabana rental for our extra tag on night due to a flight change -
this is our first time at the resort so I've been perusing this thread (so much information)
I know Hurricane Hanna's is not serving grill items (per WDW website) - is that the only food option we can order from in the Cabana? Is there another menu?
Also - I know this is a rudimentary question - we plan on coming straight from the airport and going swimming/pool day all day - I've read conflicting info on whether or not we will be able to change or take advantage of any changing area?
Snagged a good deal on Priceline the other day for the Yacht Club for a portion of our upcoming trip in early November. Staying Friday, November 6th through Wednesday, November 11th. Always love finding ways to make it back to the Yacht and Beach Club Resorts!
FYI, Ale & Compass To Go ordering coming soon. This follows Kona Cafe, Sanaa, Olivia’s Cafe, and The Wave, where to go ordering has also recently been added.

Planning a stay at the Yacht Club in January. I know the Friendship boats have not started running, hopefully they will be back by then. But, if not, I am concerned about my elderly parents and the walk to the Studios. Is Disney currently running buses from Yacht and Beach to the Studios?
Besides having a Keurig in the room, I like to get up before others in my group and go have coffee. What is open for coffee or expresso drinks at YC or close by?

Yes! We just did this last week. They asked us when the picked up our luggage if we had any items to be refrigerated and it was no issue at all! We went from Beach Club to Boardwalk.

It looks like the luggage transfer service between Disney resorts is still being offered.

Pretty amazing, three nights Dec. 9-12, 2021 for as little as $2,371. Gee, why am I so giddy with excitement over this?
Thank you for replying. Potentially it's in December, although I'm uncommitted on location for one, and uncertain if December we can still go. However, I did go ahead and book a room only reservation, and make park reservations. Admittedly, going back and forth on switching to CR or CSR, though.When is your trip?
There used to be an early morning coffee station with grab and go pastries open at the Beach Club Solarium early in the morning, 5:30. I'm not sure if it is still there after the period when the BC Marketplace was operating out of that space but has since reopened.
As far as I can tell, the Market at Ale & Compass and BC Marketplace both open at 7, and offer "specialty" coffees. Here is the menu listing for BC Marketplace.

I just arrived to Beach Club Villas and thought I would post the current activities and offerings.
I've just booked for our honeymoon (Covid bride on my third date for my wedding so everyone fingers crossed!). We've booked 8 nights in September 11-19th. We were really torn between here and French Quarter, however a pretty great deal came up for UK guests finishing on the 12th Sept so we just decided to go for it! 2 nights free and $200 gift card. So pretty excited! Last time we were at Disney was 2016 in ASMu and we were poor new graduates, so it's quite an upgrade for us!
Hopefully we'll get to go!
