Entertainment
An evening stroll along Disney's BoardWalk® may recall golden days at the seashore when families and couples flocked to the boardwalk for innocent summertime fun. Jugglers, comedians, magicians, musical groups and food vendors combine to create the atmosphere of an old-time boardwalk in its heydey. But a step off the boardwalk welcomes vacationers to an expanded array of lively entertainment options, which include dancing to the rhythms of upbeat pop music and Latin show bands, joining in a rowdy chorus at a dueling piano bar or cheering a favorite sports team to victory.
Atlantic Dance - Dance the night away to the sounds of a variety of music at Atlantic Dance located along Disney's Boardwalk. The spacious hall offers a sophisticated ambiance with a palette of rich blues, maroons and golds surrounding a parquet dance floor. Sparkling gold stars and twinkling lights adorn the ceiling and make Atlantic Dance the perfect nighttime spot for music, relaxing, dancing and romancing. Light fare, cappuccino, espresso and cognac are offered into the evening. Cigar aficionados will enjoy a selection of premium, hand-rolled cigars. For those who can't decide between shaken, stirred, with an olive or with an onion, the bar pours a tasty selection of signature martinis. Atlantic Dance Hall at Disney's Boardwalk has changed its format and is now spinning Top 40 sounds plus hit songs from the 1980s and 1990s and high energy dance music. The Hall is open Tuesday-Saturday from 9 p.m.-2 a.m. Tue, Wed and Sat are Video DJ Nights. A VJ (Video DJ) plays the best music videos on a large screen. Thru/Fri nights are DJ only nights, playing a mix of today's top hits. The Atlantic Dance Hall is restricted to guests ages 21 and over and admission is free. The hall may also be used for weddings and other special events.
Jellyrolls - Singing and drinking to the banter of dueling pianos welcome the party crowd to Jellyrolls, the lively piano bar located along the boardwalk. A main attraction within this rustic, saloon-like club is the crowd itself. Here, people of all ages join together in song as quick-witted pianists bang out old-time favorite singalongs. Jellyrolls is a foot-stomping, sing-along kind of place with lots of uproarious laughter and fun. A visit to Jellyrolls for a birthday, anniversary or engagement may get you on stage for a rambunctious and satirical serenade created especially for you. Jellyrolls welcomes those 21 years and older, with a cover charge after 7 p.m.
ESPN Club - No matter what season, catch the best games in all the top sports every day at ESPN Club, the sports broadcast and entertainment facility and full-service restaurant anchoring Disney's BoardWalk. No score or play will be missed with more than 90 monitors and a 10x10 video projection wall filling the 13,000-square-foot sports club, including televisions in both men's and women's bathrooms. ESPN Club is divided into three distinct areas designed to appeal to sports enthusiasts as well as families. Kids and adults will be sure to flock to The Yard, an "urban playground" with an arcade of sports games, the latest in virtual reality and interactive arcade games. The main dining area is Sports Central, themed to look like a sports arena with a basketball hardwood floor and giant four-sided scoreboard projecting the big game of the day. Sports Central also houses broadcast-ready facilities, including a television and radio broadcast booth where guests can periodically observe and participate in live sports celebrity interviews. Additionally, ESPN Club has originated live shows such as "Baseball Tonight," "Up Close," and "Sunday Sports Reporters," as well as local and national sports radio segments.

Disney Boardwalk Inn Reviews
| 4/21/2006 |
Last year my godmother treated me to a stay at the Inn in honor of my 50th birthday. We were upgraded to a garden suite and had the time of our lives! The suite had a cute picket fence and roses on our private patio. We were able to sit there in the evening and view the Epcot fireworks over the treetops. The congierge staff was very accomodating and got us into a restaurant that had told us they were booked solid. We tried room service for breakfast & lunch - the food and the service were both super. I highly recommend this "splurge" for honeymooners, seniors or families looking for extra room (we had 2 bathrooms). The location of the resort was ideal - the boat to MGM was a fun, short ride and Epcot was just a stroll away. We'll be returning this year for Christmas.

My family and I visited Disney in December of 2003 and had a wonderful experience. From check in to check out the Boardwalk staff could not have been more helpful or courteous. Upon checking in, the hotel the cast member greeted our son with a big thank you for bringing your parents. A special welcome such as that is what Disney is all about. Although we were unable to have adjoining rooms our rooms were close enough for convenience and offered two different balcony views which were very relaxing (one facing the courtyard the other facing the water). Our visit was shortly before Christmas so we were able to see Disney dressed up for the holidays. The Boardwalk decor was by far our favorite. Sitting on our balcony we could watch all the entertainers on the boardwalk as though they were preforming just for us instead of a crowd. Although a date has not been decided for a return trip my family and I agree there will be one and the Boardwalk will be the place we call home for our stay.
