It is all about location when it comes to this vacation club resort. The Boardwalk Villas are centrally located between the backdoor of Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios. Both theme parks are only a short walking distance away which makes transportation quick and easy. We love to walk into Epcot in the evenings to visit one or two countries before the park closes for the night. It is a nice unrushed ending to the day.
We love the fact that the rooms are not the typical hotel room set up. We usually get a two bedroom unit so that the kids can have a little elbow room so they can stretch out without invading the space of their siblings. It certainly cuts down on the fights which make for a peaceful vacation.
The Boardwalk also has lots of restaurants to choose from and even night time entertainment for you to enjoy while you walk along on the boardwalk. It has become somewhat of a tradition for our family on the day that we check into the resort to order a pizza from the boardwalk walk up window and then sit out on the boardwalk while we eat. Afterwards, we get ice cream cones from the sweet shop and let the kids swim for a while to get out some energy before we put them to bed.
I guess we like this resort so much because it is a destination in and of itself. We could stay here and have an amazing time even without ever going into a theme park. We just like it that much and we hope you do too.
