Does anyone know if the rooms at the Beach Club have been recently refurbished?

The Beach Club rooms are currently being refurbished now. I think the renovation is supposed to be completed next month at the latest!! Just in time for our May trip. They were doing it by floor. Some floors are already done.

The first floor was done while we were there in December and very nice they looked too.

Thanks, hope they are complete by the end of May. This has always been my dream resort so even better if the rooms are refurbished. I found this website on The Dis of rooms that have been redone. It looks wonderful.

It's "supposed to be" finished by the end of April and hopefully it will be. Thanks for the link Margaret.

Hi, Margaret! I've made it back! Our rooms on the concierge level had all been refurbished and looked much like the pictures you provided, except we did not have daybeds [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img] . The seahorse lamps are gone from the rooms, but the switches are much easier to find on their replacements! The bed frames are still verdegris but are now bolted to the wall which is much better since it's quieter. We had a delightful Mickey lamp on our desk. The desk is interesting--it has a table that can be pulled out from under the desk so it's a dual use piece of furniture.

Our bathroom was handicapped equipped. That meant the sinks were in with the toilet and shower and there was a lot of space inside the bathroom. Also we had grab bars all around the shower and towel racks--very handy if you're clutsy like me. And best of all, a European hand-held shower head that you can detach and aim at those hard to reach areas. Very helpful!

Before the rennovation, the rooms were peachy-sea greeny in theme and now they're sand and blue. The carpet was the only thing I didn't like--a very plain pattern of dark blue and sand plaid. Too harsh, I thought.

All of the carpets in the halls had been redone, too, and are beautiful! They have the cutest hidden Mickeys (as does the new hall wallpaper).

While we were there, we saw crews painting the exterior trim and replacing siding as well as doing some major garden work.

If you have any specific questions, let me know. I'll also post a pic or two once I get them downloaded. I had some trouble with my camera so I didn't get everything I wanted.

The newly refurbished rooms at the Beach Club sound awesome. I hadn't really considered this resort for our vacation because of expense. Does anyone know if there are ever any discount codes for the Beach Club?

Hi Joy, yes there are discounts for the Beach Club. We are booked at the BC in May with a code that is giving us $100 off rack rates. I'm hoping to get more off with AP rates, but we'll see!! I think that is pretty good. But, I have also seen it for less than this (during value season). So depending on the time you go (and on expected attendence/bookings) there could be codes. If bookings are high, there is less chance for codes. Doesn't hurt to ask though.
