Disney Completes Six Major Resort Renovations at Walt Disney World

Overview

• Disney confirmed Wednesday that six high‑profile projects have finished, including Port Orleans Riverside’s Royal Guest Rooms, Bay Lake Tower’s pool and recreation area, Kidani Village room updates, Old Key West’s Hospitality House exterior work, the Polynesian dock, and Yacht Club’s Crew’s Cup Lounge.
• The completed projects return themed rooms and refreshed accommodations to bookings, letting families avoid nearby construction and access the restored rooms without interim work zones.
• Reopening the Polynesian dock has resumed regular boat service across Seven Seas Lagoon, restoring a direct transit option many guests use to reach Magic Kingdom.
• Bay Lake Tower’s Bay Cove Pool, Cove Bar, water play area, and whirlpool spa are back in full operation, giving visitors more on‑site recreation during Florida’s busy summer months.
• Resort refurbishments are part of a staggered, property‑wide maintenance plan designed to preserve themed assets and balance upkeep with guest demand, and Disney says additional updates remain underway across the resort.
