About this place

Just steps away from Magic Kingdom Park, Disney's Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort has a distinctively modern design that is balanced by a warm and inviting décor, with the feel of an urban boutique hotel. Families can experience Disney magic first hand from their very own deluxe DVC villa balcony, with fantastic views of beautiful Bay Lake or spellbinding nightly fireworks displays over Magic Kingdom.


Staying at Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, you are only a short walk from Magic Kingdom Park! This makes it perfect if you are hitting the park dawn to dusk, and it cannot be beat for convenience if you need regular breaks with your little ones for a more leisurely park experience.

Foodies and families alike will relish the variety of dining options available inside Contemporary Resort, easily accessible via the Skybridge - whether that is dining with the ‘Fab 5’ at Chef Mickey’s; enjoying fresh, seasonal dishes at California Grill; sampling Walt’s favorites at Steakhouse 71; grabbing quick bites at Contempo Café or cooling off poolside with a drink at the Cove Bar.

You can relax poolside at Bay Cove Pool, see what’s on at the Community Hall, visit the Arcade or Olympiad Fitness Center, or catch a boat from the Marina. Shopping options include Bay View Gifts and the Fantasia Gift Shop.
