Just a short walk from Epcot or a boat ride away from Disney’s Hollywood Studios theme parks, Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort is a convention hotel with the formal grace of a grand New England-style yacht club. With a calming beach overlooking a picturesque waterway and nautical themed guest rooms, attendees will feel as though they have stepped inside a seaside community.

The convention space also includes breakout rooms and a boardroom, ideal for executive meetings.

And, just steps away from the convention center at the neighboring BoardWalk Entertainment District, meeting planners can also utilize the dynamic Atlantic Dance Hall, a multi-level 1920s-themed dinner hall, perfect for an awards dinner or special networking event.  

When it comes to overnight accommodations, 1,190 inviting guest rooms are available to immerse attendees into the world of a maritime-themed resort. Waterside balconies offer stunning views of the bay and lush gardens surrounding the resort.
