While staying at Bay Lake Tower, we encourage you to take time to enjoy the Resort.  Here are some ways to have a magical Resort day at Bay Lake Tower.

Feel At Home

Being a DVC Resort, Bay Lake Tower offers at-home accommodations.  You can stay in deluxe villas that offer amenities such as a kitchen, washer, dryer, and even separate bedrooms for the family.  Although most of us don’t want to take time to do laundry during a trip, take advantage of these amenities in your Resort.  You can enjoy a meal or get caught up on laundry to help make your transition home that much easier.

Pool Time

Bay Cove Pool is where you will want to spend the afternoon.  This pool has a 20-foot-tall water slide that is surrounded by glass blocks making for a beautiful and fun experience.  Kids will enjoy the children’s water play area as well as the pool’s zero-entry and afternoon games.  This is an excellent way to relax and enjoy the Resort.

Delicious Food Options

Bay Lake Tower is attached to Contemporary Resort providing a variety of unique and amazing dining experiences.  If you are looking for quick dining options, the Contempo Cafe offers quick options such as pizza and cupcakes.  If you are looking for a sit-down meal, California Grill offers some of the best views and food on the property.

See Characters

Along with the amazing dining options above, there is also Chef Mickey’s.  This family-style character meal is a wonderful way to see Mickey and friends without heading into the Park.  This “Family Feast,” as Disney calls it, provides unlimited delicious food.

Get Active

Another fun part of Bay Lake Tower is the activities available.  There is a Game Station that allows fans to enjoy arcade games as well as a basketball court and yoga.  If you enjoy the outdoors, consider fishing!  These guided tours leave from Disney’s Contemporary Resort and allow Guests an excursion throughout Bay Lake and Seven Seas Lagoon.  There are also volleyball and tennis courts and a jogging trail for those that want to stay moving.
