    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    Everything I have seen from this retheming has been poor. It's unfortunate because on paper the changes generally sound good, e.g. putting a coffee shop in the lobby, but everything so far looks like a generic hotel. Also, why was no refill station added in the coffee shop?

    Brightline to Disney cancelled

    The fact they cost way more for arguably lesser hotels, and stopped offering the 3 week ticket only makes Universal more and more appealing. I know we will be staying a week at UOR every visit now, whereas UOR used to be a few days out on our Disney holiday. My extended family are currently in...

    Disney Springs Brightline High-Speed Rail Station Cancelled

    Was this a Disney decision to not do a station or is it just not feasible to fit one in on the new route? (I cannot find a map of the route, so no idea how close the train gets.

    Best Off Site Resorts

    Sherton Vistana (Either Villages or Resort). Both are less than 10 minutes drive to WDW, and you have options for 1 or 2 bedroom aprtments, sleeping up to 8 people. It's great having a kitchen and laundry facilities in room, and the parking is right outside your building.

    Boardwalk Outdoor Dining

    We love getting a pizza from the much improved pizza window, or a sandwich from the Bakery, and sitting people watching while eating.

    Favorite Magic Kingdom restaurant!!

    MK is my least favourite park for food. I have no must do's. CRT, BOG are decent, and I enjoyed Skipper's Canteen, but need a second visit before I decide it is for me. The only QS I rate is Peco Bills. MK is a great place for snacks though!

    Magical Express to end in 2022

    The resort-park transportation at Disney is very hit and miss. I've spent 45 minutes waiting for a bus, that was due to arrive in 5 minutes, multiple times in one trip. It's one thing Universal do better (regular and reliable resort buses). I certainly wouldn't stay onsite without either a car...

    Magical Express to end in 2022

    I don't use the ME, but I still think it is idiotic to gwt rid of it. It's the little things that make Disney World better than the competition. However, the accomodations available offsite can rival or better anything Disney puts out in terms of quality, so why pay more for Disney if you don't...

    Getting cozy at WDW

    Head round to the Boardwalk Inn as there are lots of great places there. Get a bite and drink from the bakery then head to the lobby of the hotel. Just outside the lobby are some chairs on the balcony. If you want somewherecair conditioned go into the lounge next to the lobby or head over to the...

    Video Help and Suggestions

    Having "wasted" (or in my opinion, spent wisely) literal days, if not weeks of our lives watching videos on Youtube of other people in Disney Parks and Resorts, and reviewing or showing off their Disney related purchases, we have decided we should record some videos on our upcoming trip to DLP...

    When do you felt that a water park has become too crowded?

    If you cannot see the water in the lazy river then the park is too crowded. This happens every time we go, which is usually around lunch time. WDW needs a third waterpark again imo.

    Theater Banning Men From Two Showings of Wonder Woman

    This is totally unacceptable. Next they will be telling us that there are toilets for women only! :joker: Not sure why anyone is even bothered by this. PC brigade going mad again. Plus, the movie looks average at best.

    CABANA BAY BEACH RESORT Thread..........

    With the added rooms, and therefore likely increase in guests, do you think it is likelythe facilities at CBBR will be able to handle the extra footfall, i.e. did they plan ahead for extra capacity? When we stayed last year we were shocked at just how good this hotel was considering the price...

    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    Do you need to be checking in at the desk in order to weigh it? We just want to make sure we have distributed our weight eveningly enough that both cases are under, and jettison anything 'expendible' if we look like we are carrying too much. We do have a travel scale but I'm not sure it is...

    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    The hording around Abracadbar is down. We are here until 3rd August, so expect a 4th August opening date. Also, we have been placed in a room in an outhouse next to the quiet pool. Is there a quick way to the buses or the boardwalk, or do we need to walk across the open courtyard?
