Disney's Contemporary Resort

Disney’s Contemporary Resort is located on Bay Lake and the hotel’s main outdoor pool—which is shaped like Mickey’s ears—overlooks the lake. The resort has a marina where guests can rent sailboats, Hobie cats, and pontoon boats, or arrange a fishing excursion. Other water sports include parasailing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, and tubing. A playground and game arcade are also available. In addition, the resort has interactive water fountains, which kids enjoy. Guests can use tennis and volleyball courts, and a fitness center offers Cybex and cardio equipment as well as a dry sauna. There is 24-hour room service, and a hair salon, gift shop, and merchandise shops are located within the resort.

The resort offers 90,000 square feet of meeting space with support including a business center, banquet facilities, exhibit space, ballrooms, and audio-video equipment. A sleek monorail whizzes through the center of the building, transporting guests to the Magic Kingdom® Park and Epcot®. Complimentary transportation is also provided via motorcoach to other Disney Theme Parks, both water parks, and the Downtown Disney® Area.
