There’s good news for those waiting to learn the opening dates for additional Walt Disney World Resorts. Disney’s Swan & Dolphin Resorts are now accepting reservations for July 29th, 2020.

Technically, the Swan & Dolphin Resorts are Marriott-owned even though they lie between two Disney theme parks. The Swan and Dolphin website previously stated that the hotels will be closed until July 29th. The site also gives more information for guests with reservations:

“In order to better serve our guests during the temporary closure of Walt Disney World Theme Parks and hotels, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin will close effective Tuesday, March 24, 2020 at 12:00pm EST through July 29, 2020.

Resort reservations does not guarantee entrance into Disney theme parks.

For guests with existing reservations for any future arrival date, including reservations with pre-paid rates that are typically more restrictive, we will allow full changes or cancellation without a charge up to 24 hours prior to arrival will be allowed, as long as the change or cancellation is made by July 29, 2020. Please note that any changes to existing reservations will be subject to availability and any rate differences.

For guests making new reservations for any future arrival date, including reservations with pre-paid rates, between today and July 29, 2020, we will allow the reservation to be changed or cancelled at no charge up to 24 hours before your scheduled arrival date. Please note that changes to the reservation will be subject to availability and any rate differences.”

Stormalong Bay Closed but Beach Club Guests will have Access to Disney’s BoardWalk Pool

When select Walt Disney World Resort hotels reopen later this month, not all amenities will be available to guests.

Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts will not be available during the initial reopening period. Guests of Disney’s Beach Club Villas may use the resort leisure pool, and may also use the Luna Park Pool and leisure pool at Disney’s BoardWalk Villas.

Stormalong Bay features three lagoon areas — including one specifically designed for younger water-lovers, with a depth of 2 to 3 feet.

A spiral stair on board the life-sized shipwreck ascends to a 150-foot mast, broken and askew to serve as a flume plummeting toward a rocky outcropping where another 150 feet of spins complete a fast-moving thrill slide.

If you’ll be staying at Disney’s Beach or Yacht Clubs and you’d like to have some pool time, you can check out the pool at Disney’s BoardWalk Villas.
