What we love

Spectacular views of Magic Kingdom® Park, Bay Lake and the Seven Seas Lagoon
One of the most convenient villas on property with some of the newest, nicest rooms
Sleek, minimalist design and vibrant Disney-themed art
Walking path to Magic Kingdom® Park, the quickest way to get there (10-minute walk); monorail access to Epcot® via the Sky Way Bridge
Great shopping in the 4th floor Tower stores at the main resort hotel
Character dining with Mickey and the gang at Chef Mickey's
Multiple table-service dining options, including one of the best restaurants on property at California Grill
Watching the fireworks from park view rooms and the observation deck at California Grill
On-site tennis and volleyball courts

Keep in Mind

Hotel charges $24 per night (sales tax included) for overnight self-parking
Hotel charges $33 per night (sales tax included) for valet parking
Minimalist theming doesn't feel very "Disneyish" (aside from artwork)
Among the most expensive Deluxe Resort Villas on property
Theme Park View includes the parking lot
Pool doesn't have a discernible theme, other than modern
Deluxe studios only sleep 4 plus an infant in a crib; some of the other deluxe villas sleep 5

Notable Facts

The Top of the World Lounge on the 16th floor is exclusive to Disney Vacation Club members staying at Bay Lake
Bay Lake Tower was the last work of architect Charles Gwathmey
The award-winning California Grill underwent an extensive refurbishment in 2013, adding a sleek design and lighting, onstage kitchen, sushi bar and more than 250 wine selections

Frog Family Tips

For the shortest transport time, walk to Magic Kingdom® Park, but take the monorail back to the hotel
For transport to Epcot®, take the Monorail to Transportation and Ticket Center and then transfer to the Epcot® line
Consider upgrading to a Theme Park View; request a higher floor for a better view of Wishes Nighttime Spectacular
If you're watching Wishes Nighttime Spectacular, turn to channel 20 to hear the show
If you're dining at California Grill on the 15th floor of the Tower, watch Wishes Nighttime Spectacular from the roof viewing area; earlier diners can show their receipt and come back up for the show

Best For

Families, especially larger families, who appreciate modern design, being right next to Magic Kingdom® Park and on the monorail, and plenty of amenities

Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort Information

Hotel Information

The tower blends modern architectural sensibilities with the visual cues of its neighbor. The exterior mimics the original resort’s A-frame structure and the building’s shape also creates tremendous views. The pool has a unique water slide, wrapped in glass block. Two-story lobby is filled with woven woods and glass-wrapped columns. The accommodations offer sweeping views. A Sky Way Bridge links the tower to the original resort.
