Resort
This hotel was designed by Robert A.M. Stern. It is themed after seaside cottages found in Newport at the start of the 20th century, with the guest rooms following suit. The resort's light blue motif distinguishes itself from the gray siding with red and white striped awnings of Disney's Yacht Club Resort.
Boat transportation from the resort runs to Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios as well as Disney's BoardWalk Resort and the Walt Disney World Swan and Walt Disney World Dolphin resorts. The resort is about five minutes walking distance from Epcot, and roughly fifteen minutes walking distance to Disney's Hollywood Studios. Guests can use the International Gateway entrance to Epcot in World Showcase between the France and United Kingdom pavilions.
Disney's Beach Club Resort has received designation in the Florida Green Lodging Program.

Famous quotes containing the word resort:
“What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind?—They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“If the worker and his boss enjoy the same television program and visit the same resort places, if the typist is as attractively made up as the daughter of her employer, if the Negro owns a Cadillac, if they all read the same newspaper, then this assimilation indicates not the disappearance of classes, but the extent to which the needs and satisfactions that serve the preservation of the Establishment are shared by the underlying population.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
“The last resort of kings, the cannonball. The last resort of the people, the paving stone.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
