My wife and I are heading to Florida for the first time next March and your videos have been super helpful! I love how in depth you go with these Florida Locations! Will be watching all your videos preparing to go on our trip! Another Great video!
I can't tell you how happy I am to hear this! It makes all the extra effort that was put in totally worth it. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. Are you and your wife doing all Disney for your first trip to Florida?
@@ChrissaTravels You’re doing a great job! Keep it up! :) We are doing 2 days at Disney and 2 at Universal. We are thinking EPCOT & Animal Kingdom since we’ve been to Disneyland down in California and those 2 parks are very different and something we haven’t experienced at all. And we’ll be doing both Universal Parks.
@@hectorslifeadventures that sounds like a great plan! March is typically the beginning of the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival which is AMAZING…it is my favorite event of the year! So, it is a great time to go! Animal Kingdom is also my favorite Disney World park, so I can’t argue there either! We are actually working on our Universal Absolute Guides right now. I hoping to finish them in the next few months! If you have any questions let me know! ☺️
@@ChrissaTravels Yeah we are going for 9 days and 4 days will be for theme parks and 5 for exploring the rest of Florida and binge watching your videos of Florida has given me a lot of ideas so thank you! Lol Nice! I’ll be on the lookout for your upcoming Universal guides, I’m almost caught up with all your content lol. Thanks so much for replying and will definitely let you know for any info. Thanks a lot Chrissa!
Love your content Chrissa my family is a huge fan of your vids and we love board walk thank you for your videos can you do Disney’s animal kingdom lodge next I would love to see it thank you for everything !
Hi Snoopy Samurai! I always love receiving comments from you. I definitely plan to cover all of the hotels eventually…especially the animal kingdom lodge since I love it so much!
We’re staying at Beach club in June and can’t wait! We stayed here in 2021 but a lot of stuff was still closed due to Covid. Can’t wait to check out the new places!
0:52 Not quite - the guard will not just let you in. You need to have an Advanced Dining Reservation at BW, or a room at BW. It’s not a big lot and with the ability to bypass parking fee for Epcot and Hollywood Studios, the guards need to be strict. Right now is even harder than usual as one lot is being used for DVC villa refurb materials. Alternatives: uber or WDW transportation. Across the street Swolphin has a conference overflow parking lot that I think usually is no problem to self serve.
I don't know why I thought the Boardwalk and Disney Springs were the same lol!!! I didn't realize these were two separate locations. I would go there just for Beaches & Cream Soda Shop 😂!!! Decisions...Decisions 🤔 lol.
Hey LaShay!!! If it's your first time going to either one... I would recommend going to Disney Springs first. It is much much bigger and gives you a ton of places to explore!
Very cool! I've lived in Florida all my life and never knew about this place. Will definitely check it out with my family! Mom shared this video with me. Just subscribed!
Aww.... that makes me so happy to introduce you to the Boardwalk! It is like Disney's hidden gem. I'm so excited to have you join my community! I can't wait to hear more about your adventures in Florida!
It's one of the resorts it's not like a free shopping center it's a hotel and the stuff that goes with the resort so you're not going to be able to park there but if you have reservations at Epcot or something for the day you can take Disney's transportation over there for a couple hours and go back but then you're losing hours at the park
I think they have changed the policy for parking at boardwalk. We came tonight after seeing your video and the security guard at entrance deny our access to parking at boardwalk bc we didn’t have any reservations. 😞
Oh no! I’m so sorry! I’ll definitely have to look into that change. It may be because it’s New Years Eve. I know most of the parks tend to be at capacity by noon on NYE sometimes…so, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same with the restaurants! Thank you for letting me know!
@@SuperDexteroo hmmm, we filmed this video ten months ago and visited at least 4-5 times at different times of the day to film and was never turned away. But, I’ll have to see if there have been any changes
Great content but I will say good luck parking at any of the resorts on the Boardwalk unless you have a table service dining reservation. They often don't even allow rideshare drop offs unless you are staying at the resort or have a dining reservation(BW/Yacht/Beach Club specifically).
Thank you so much for watching! ☺️ It’s funny that you say that because I have never had an issue getting parking there. We went several times to film this video recently and they always let us right in! I remember they used to make us park across the street if you didn’t have dining reservations. But when I went recently and told them I wanted to just visit the boardwalk, they let me park on the hotel side every time.
@@ChrissaTravels Hi :) I think it’s somewhat dependent on time of year and crowds. Also depends on the guard. It’s a judgement call. How busy is the resort and even a bit of guessing on intention. Mornings are trickiest since that’s when people try to bypass theme park/ing fees. Staying at a different deluxe usually helps. I’d guess you had no issues because you came across as credible. There’s a whole bunch of factors for guards making these decisions.
Excellent video!! 🙏 By any chance do you know if is possible to take a free roundtrip ride on the Disney Skyliner at EPCOT as long as we are visiting the Boardwalk?
Hi @zemachida1783! I can’t see why not! There is no cost to take a ride on the skyliner, so you could just walk right over from the boardwalk and do a round trip ride!
Hey everyone! Have you ever visited the boardwalk? What’s your favorite restaurant?
ESPN Zone sadly . . .
I knew about Disney Springs and Universal CityWalk because I go to concerts there but I never knew about this place until now.
I’m so happy to be the one to introduce you to the Disney Boardwalk area! ☺️💛
FANTASTIC VIDEO.. I mean, the detail, like an official Disney promo video.
Aww….thank you so much! I really appreciate that! ☺️
Free is always nice. Parking and boat ride free also nice. Bakery treats looked good. So much to see and do & eat there.Live entertainment is awesome.
brokey
Thank you! This was so comprehensive I appreciate how thorough this was. It’d be great if prices could be shown.
Great job with your video!
thanks for sharing, beautiful place and the food looks so delicious. liked.
Terrific review. Thank you for using the map to show where everything is. This is going to help us a lot. Cheers!
I’m so glad this could be helpful!! I hope you have a wonderful time!
Thank you very much

Love your content ✨️ 💕
That kitchen sink! 😳 oh my goodness! That balancing guy was awesome as well!
Lol….it’s gigantic!! It really is everything AND the kitchen sink! 😂

I know you will have an amazing time! You are staying at a wonderful resort. I am so excited for you!

It's not free parking but sometimes the guard will let you in if it's early and room to park. I just get a reservation then cancel after I park.
It’s my first time going here. I made a dining reservation for one of the restaurants, will that be good enough for them to let me in?
@@WondaRickyyes. If you don't want to waste the money get there 2 hrs early and park and cancel the reservation after you park. 😂. Unless you want to
I love all the information you provided!!
Thank you so much! I'm so happy that you found the video helpful!
Love this hotel we are coming in 19 more day cant wait
That’s awesome! I hope you have an amazing trip! 💛

We may be trying to go here on our trip in a few days. Are the sky boxes free?

Have Uber drop you off at the Swan or Dolphin.

Can you take a rideshare to access the Boardwalk?
