Love everything about Disney's Boardwalk. The Inn, the Villas, the shops, pools, service, and boardwalk itself. The easy walk to Epcot and little adventure to other hotels and Hollywood Studies are also great. Love being on the backside of Epcot, easy entry, and exit. Too bad Jellyrolls is going to be closing, but will give new Jazzclub a shot.

A great hotel that far exceeded our expectations. We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa that had a fantastic view and everything we could need for this trip. It makes such a difference having kitchen and washing facilities available on a Disney trip. Location wise it's the best Disney hotel, walking (or boat) distance to two parks and the bus journey… Read more
A great hotel that far exceeded our expectations. We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa that had a fantastic view and everything we could need for this trip. It makes such a difference having kitchen and washing facilities available on a Disney trip. Location wise it's the best Disney hotel, walking (or boat) distance to two parks and the bus journey to the other isn't long. Little bit annoying that the bus can sometimes be shares with Yacht and Beach club but hopefully Disney hear the feedback on this. Food options are limited but what there is good. The other hotels around Cresent Lake have some great restaurants and Epcot is within walking distance. Read less

The hotel is nice enough, it’s huge. Where is the food!? This hotel is very limited, especially for vegetarian or vegan travelers. Ordered from Uber eats, the parking attendant was telling her to leave, go around back. Are they embarrassed there is no food to eat here!?

1st time visiting the Disney Boardwalk Villas & the hotel and property were wonderful, but experience with staff and housekeeping was not. Clumps of hair in the shower-called front desk to have it removed & they assured us it would get escalated & removed & it didn’t.

1st time visiting the Disney Boardwalk Villas & the hotel and property were wonderful, but experience with staff and housekeeping was not. Clumps of hair in the shower-called front desk to have it removed & they assured us it would get escalated & removed & it didn’t. Asked them to NOT change our bedding-they did; Received a loud knock at our door at 6:45am to replace a shower curtain. I told them we were sleeping & had the do not disturb sign on. Housekeeping said they needed to change the curtain to which I noted that was not our concern-it was the clumps of hair. And also, everyone was asleep & we asked them not to disturb and they still did. Finally, we talked to the concierge about adding park days & they ended up downgrading our passes so we had issues getting into one of the parks that day. Miscommunication & poor followup. Will reconsider staying here again Read less
