OVERVIEW
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort—a new Disney Deluxe Villa Resort—has been designed to complement the fabled styling of the classic Disney's Contemporary Resort building and promises to deliver some of the most dramatic views available anywhere at Walt Disney World Resort.
Bay Lake Tower balances a modern and luxurious experience with warm and innovative features. This description extends to its exclusive and impressive pool—complete with a unique water slide wrapped in an intriguing glass block.
Spacious rooms (equivalent to 2-bedroom Villas) are furnished with contemporary custom pieces, such as the pull-out pantry in the kitchen and the sliding doors in the bathrooms. These pieces are as functional as they are attractive. The rooms maintain the feel of clean lines and open spaces, with plenty of details and touches you expect from a Disney Deluxe Villa. Enjoy views that may include old-growth cypress trees, the lush landscape near Bay Lake, the courtyard, pool or Magic Kingdom theme park.
Restaurants, a health club, tennis courts and other recreational facilities are shared with Disney's Contemporary Resort. Whether your wish is to relax by the pool, indulge in a revitalizing massage or savor sensational food as you take in stunning views at the California Grill restaurant, Bay Lake Tower is sure to please.
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort has been designated by the Florida Green Lodging Program, recognizing the Resort's environmentally responsible practices.
Architectural Design
To add an elaborate sense of arrival, the 2-story lobby is filled with warm woven woods and expansive glass-wrapped columns.
The curvilinear, crescent-shaped Tower blends modern architectural sensibilities with the trademark visual cues of its influential neighbor, Disney's Contemporary Resort. The exterior color palette, strong horizontal lines and angular rooftop lounge mimic the original Resort's A-frame structure.
A convenient (and covered) Sky Way Bridge, accessible only with a Bay Lake Tower room key, links the Tower to the shops, restaurants and monorail station in the original Disney's Contemporary Resort.
CHILDRENS ACTIVITIES
In addition to the pool, with its 148-foot-long water slide, there is the Community Hall, where ping-pong, foosball and video games are available as well as equipment for basketball, tennis and shuffleboard. Check the chalkboard in the children's area, located in the main lobby, for games and crafts offered by the recreation team. Children will also enjoy the nightly Electrical Water Pageant that floats through the waters of Bay Lake.
