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

Beautiful looking resort, really relaxed and fabulous cast members. The 2 bed apartments had great views over looking the lake towards the Beach Club and it’s perfectly situated at the back of World Showcase only 10/15 minutes walk from England. The Boardwalk has to be the best location for not only for Epcot but also maybe Hollywood Studios. It’s next to Swan and Dolphin which has so many great restaurants in addition to the ones directly on the boardwalk below. Loads of entertainment throughout the day and into the night and can see fireworks from Epcot. Absolutely magical holiday. Read less

This was our first time staying on this property and we absolutely loved it! I believe they recently did updates to the rooms and we loved the decor! Our favorite part about this resort it access to the international gateway! Although it is a bit farther of a walk than beach club, it is still very close!

Wonderful resort on Disney property. While I don't recommend going in June unless you love the heat, we had a wonderful trip. The room had been recently renovated and we couldn't have asked for a better view. Will definitely stay again and recommend to all. Food options need a little working on, but otherwise great stay.

Our favorite resort on site. Beautiful grounds, friendly staff. Close to EPCOT and HS and the skyliner. We love to just sit and relax on the Boardwalk. A nice quiet place away from the parks. There is always something going on. Movies on the lawn for the kids. Make your own smores. Wonderful resort.
