Caribbean Beach Resort

Updated 2/25/2022 Be sure to request a Resort Guide at the front desk so that you can have the most up-to-date information about resort happenings and schedules. 

For the most up-to-date information about the phased re-opening of the Walt Disney World Resort, please visit the Walt Disney World Know Before You Go Guide.


Disney's Caribbean Beach is a Moderate Resort that celebrates the spirit of tropical locales—from the legacy of colonial forts and architecture to lively markets, exotic birds, and relaxing strolls on the sand. Each island complex is bright, airy, and colorful, and overlooks a 45-acre lake with sandy beaches (beaches are not swimmable).


Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort has 1500 rooms that capture the essence of 5 distinct islands: Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, Trinidad, and Aruba. Here, you can celebrate the spirit of the Caribbean with blissful sights and fun-filled activities.

Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort is located at 1114 Cayman Way, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830.

Transportation:
Bussing is provided to all parks and Disney Springs and buses depart approximately every 15-20 minutes. From Caribbean Beach, the bus ride to Magic and Animal Kingdoms is approximately 20 minutes. It is approximately 15 minutes to Epcot and Hollywood Studios. The ride to Disney Springs is approximately 25 minutes. In addition, internal bussing allows you to get from point A to point B within the resort without having to walk far. The Skyliner will take you to Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and select Disney Resorts.

Taxi, Uber, and Lyft are available for quick service to anywhere you may need to go, on or off Disney property. Prices vary.

If you happen to drive your own car to Disney, overnight, self-parking is $20 per night.



Pools:
There is one featured pool - Fuentes del Morro. Guests make a splash at this zero-entry pirate’s paradise, themed like a colonial Spanish fortress. Swashbuckling adventurers can zip by on one of 2 waterslides—including one measuring 102 feet long—and feel the spray of man-of-war-cannons. Little ones can cavort at the shipwreck play area, complete with mini slides, a crow’s nest, and a barrel of laughs that dispenses a drenching downpour. A 12-person spa pool provides relaxation after a long day on the high seas, as do tropical drinks from the nearby Banana Cabana pool bar.

There are also five leisure pools - one in each village. These pools offer an escape for the less boisterous buccaneers of your crew. Take a plunge and cool down, or simply lounge the day away on deck while catching some golden rays.

Recreation:
This resort offers movies under the stars, campfire activities, adventure cruises, fishing, jogging trails, volleyball, and bike rentals. The resort guide provided to you upon check in will have the schedule of all events during your stay.


Dining:
Discover a treasure trove of leisurely feasts and grab-and-go bites at the reimagined Old Port Royale. This convenient “port of entry” is filled with places to gather, dine and relax and includes both sit-down and quick-service dining options, as well as an outdoor lounge, poolside bar, and market.

Sebastian’s Bistro, a sit down dining location, serves mouthwatering meals with a tropical vibe. Make it a lighter meal with salads, sandwiches, and burgers or fill up on steak and seafood entrees.

Centertown Market is where you’ll want to drop by for delicious quick-service meals amidst an authentic street market setting. Centertown Market also offers a casual Grab & Go market with quick and easy salads, sandwiches, bakery items, snacks, coffee, smoothies, and a variety of bottled beverages.

Banana Cabana, near the featured pool, offers cold beverages and a tropical bar when you need some rest from the sun.

Spyglass Grill offers a casual-cool menu featuring American fare with a Caribbean twist for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

My Review:
My family loves Disney parks and we also love the Caribbean, so what better way to get both in one trip? We love the island life and with beaches and hammocks throughout the resort, you will feel like you left the busy parks and went straight to the Caribbean to relax. This property is large and has an internal bus system, so no matter where you stay, it’s not a long walk to a bus stop. We love having the choice of a relaxing pool close to our room or a large pool with water slides and other activities. We enjoy the Moderate resorts because of the dining options and price. They also seem to be quieter and more relaxing, just like the Caribbean.

Gaston's Tavern Giant Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon rolls are a must for me at Christmas and this is one of my favorite recipes for look-alike Gaston’s Tavern Giant Cinnamon Rolls! I found it on Inside the Magic , so all recipe credit belongs to them, but I have copied it below with some of my commentary and photos of my step by step process. Homemade cinnamon rolls are always going to be a bit time consuming, but these only have to proof for 40 minutes total so it’s really not bad at all! First things first, here are the materials you’re going to need: Mixer (one with a dough hook will make your life much much easier) and bowl Rubber scrapers Rolling pin 2-3 saucepans Microwave safe bowls An area big enough to roll them out 2 metal sheet pans with edges Measuring cups Measuring spoons Medium sized bowl for filling Liquid measuring cup The nice thing about the recipe is it uses pretty basic ingredients that you likely already have at your house. I went to Aldi and bought nearly everything just to see and it was about $20. And o
