In today's vlog we head to Walt Disney World's Contemporary Resort for a walking tour of the hotel grounds. First we take a look at the lobby, gift shops, arcade and food locations (Chef Mickey's, The Wave, Contempo Cafe, & Cove Bar). Then we take a look at the pools, splash pad and outdoor recreation areas. We also take a look at each section of the resort, including Bay Lake Tower DVC. Have you ever stayed at this Disney resort? Let us know in the comments below! Thank you for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

Am I the only one that would love to see tours of the 4 parks? I know there's maps all over online and on the Disney app, but would be cool to see the placement of a lot of the shops, restaurants, rides, etc. before visiting too.

My absolute favorite resort. It's got the best lay-out on the club level, and doesn't make you walk a mile to get to a bus if you need one. Also that smell is amazing. the 14th floor is completely cut off from the sound of the rest, and since you get a perfect view of the fireworks with music piped in from the lounge's balcony, the best rooms are on the Bay Lake side, where you can see the Epcot fireworks and watch the water parade! They also give you these neat chocolate boxes (literally made of chocolate and filled with chocolate bonbons) with the Contemporary logo screened on in edible gold. 14 & 12 are the club floors, and both secure. If you're not staying on them, the elevator won't allow you to stop on them. The personnel is also very nice. The last time we stayed, we had a luggage emergency, requiring us to buy new suitcases before we left, only we had to leave so early that the stores were closed. They actually opened one of the stores for us to allow us to buy what we needed to get our clothes and things packed.

The Story Factory I’ve stayed in the garden rooms the last 2 visits because it was away from the noise. I didn’t know about the club level. I’ll check that out. However I will say staying in the 1st floor garden room was super easy to take a quick swim. And we faced bay lake so we sat on our patio for the boat parade. The contemporary is THE most convenient of the resorts. Monorail right there and if you’re at Magic Kingdom at park closing and the monorail lines are bad you can walk back to the hotel.

Thank you for taking me back to my favorite resort on property! I worked there on the 4th floor in the 3 different merch locations for 4 months when I was on the Spring Disney College Program in 2011. There are so many cool little design features of that building both on stage and off stage. The stock rooms for the shops are located right on the edges of the building and you'd have to watch your head because you're right up against the building supports. The monorail would always make the walls rumble too.

This is where my family and I stayed in 2015,16 & 17, on the Club level. You definitely feel like royalty there. We parasailed and rented a boat the last time we were there. They also had a dinner called "Highway in the Sky" dine around. They assigned us our private car on the monorail.You start at the Contemporary for soup and drink, then to The Polynesian for appetizers and drink, then to The Grand Floridian for dinner and wine. We finished back at the Contemporary for dessert and after dinner drinks , this was located in the spot you showed with seats and the perfect view of the fireworks . It was a perfect Disney experience... Thanks for the tour, really brought back awesome memories.

Great! They still have the "photo Mickey" on the Bay Lake side. I was getting worried they moved it (again). Roughly same spot, but moved when they "reimagineered" the old square pool. Always do a family shot there, so have a progression of the kids growing up through the years with each visit. Of course the first one was just my wife and I - might be back to that shot next visit.

And I know it doesn't necessarily "feel" like Disney, but it feels like home away from home. Lots of care, very open, unique style, BEAUTIFUL views in any room, and just overall 10/10 for me EDIT: dang, no arcade ;-; there's an excellent game in the back corner where you have to buckle into a seat to play it. Pretty crazy & fun

I remember in 1980 my family stayed here for 3 days during the summer. I remember being amazed by the monoral coming through the middle of the hotel but my most vivid memory was of a severely mentally handicapped man who was confined to a wheelchair biting on to my upper left bicep & refusing to let go until his mother eventually hit him with her cane until he began to bleed from the center of his scalp. GOOD TIMES!!!

I came across your channel when I was looking for walk-thrus of Fort Wilderness, and I'm glad I did. You're kind of a lovable dork, and entertaining to virtually hang out with on these little tours. You've even managed to make the Contemporary seem fun! It's my least favorite resort, because of the 70s office park vibe, but I've seen it with fresh eyes. Last year I found myself on a four-day layover in Orlando, between author conferences. I did a one-day park hopper pass, because I didn't care to blow a bunch of cash for four days of "loner in Disney World." But for the other days I just parked at Disney Springs and hopped the buses to the various resorts, exploring them a lot like how you're doing. So this has been nostalgic and fun for me. I'm leaving for Orlando in a couple of days, and will have some more downtime, so I'm using your videos to "prime the pump." Thanks so much for the tours!

Two trips ago in 2015 we had the opportunity to dine at California Grill and it was absolutely magical. We were seated in a room overlooking Bay Lake, this particular room only seat a half dozen parties or so making the space quite intimate. Our table was directly against the window and the particular evening was accompanied by a tremendous lightning storm, only enhancing our experience. The seating, service, and dining were all so spectacular and unique that I don't envision us ever returning, as it could only be worse. P.S. Watching Wishes from up top was unbeatable.

@TheTimTracker I believe those metal tie downs are for facade cleaning purposes. Scaffolding and harnessing for the people who are going to clean the facade would be secured to them, as I assume that the facade of the Contemporary is painted concrete, so some power washing and paint touch ups would need the accessibility from the roof. Also, judging by the sound of the wind in some sections, we could safely say that the scaffolding and harnesses need a pretty strong fix in order to not be blown away.

As a kid who went every year to the Contemporary in the 70s and 80s its sad to see the lake closed for swimming, understandably but sad, that beach would be packed. Also in your comment about the Contemporary smell, it used to have a distinct smell, not bad or good, but I think it was from their floor tiles on the first and fourth floor, because when they changed the tiles the smell went away and I weirdly miss that too.

That small round pool at the contemporary is actually quite deep. I remember going in it years ago with my family and thinking it's the deepest one that I've been in at any of the Disney Resorts.

I have stayed at the Contemporary. Booked a theme park view in the A frame. It is definitely worth spending a weekend here Tim. I will say Chef Mickey was def underwhelming with their food and really $$$. Also they kinda sucked the magic out when just after being greeted by all the characters, a manager comes over asking if we met all the characters "in a timely and orderly fashion" kinda speech. Buzz kill. The pools were nice. Wish I made more time for them. The rooms have this 70s nostalgia to the decor but without feeling old. My favorite grab and go place to eat had to be the Contempo Cafe. I always ordered the Turkey Sandwich. It had bacon and Cranberry Aioli. I wasn't expecting to like it, but i ended up ordering it 4 more times when taking breaks from running around the parks. I didn't get to eat at the Wave or California Grill. But hey, thats a reason to come back! (Ugh I sound like a manager trying to shamelessly plug his own hotel) lol

Tim your ( and Jens) resort tours are some of the best on KZbin . The only improvement would be views of the rooms , don't know if this would be possible . Anyway keep up the good work, we'll be watching.

We took our daughter and grandsons to Disney in 2012...the worst meal and service was in the Wave , very disappointing and expensive ..no one liked their food and our server was not the best . Glad to hear that it is better ..but we will go somewhere else first ..We do love your reviews ❤️..and enjoy watching and learning ..thank you !

I played in a (visiting) band there in the mid-1970s (three or four years after the Disney World resort opened); there was a nightclub (for adults) on top of The Contemporary back then (I cant recall its name), and I guess it’s still there. I DO remember The Amazing Kreskin was headlining when I was there👳‍♀️😁. The monorail used to run from The Contemporary, back then, directly into the Magic Kingdom. I’m guessing it still does, too (?). I’m just beginning the video, so maybe the answers are here. In any event, this brings back some fun memories. Thanks for sharing 🙂.

Man they moved us to the contemporary from the beach club and I’m kinda sad. It looks so dark and corporate 🥺! I hope they still let us resort hop. I was looking forward to taking pics in the hotel

@10:35 I would say about three :) @23:00 Awesome! Kids from 5 to 95 love looking at things from a different perspective - especially the monorail. Ooooh, so that's how it works :)
