Disney's Contemporary Resort - Full Tour & Overview 2024 - Walt Disney World

Walkability to the Magic Kingdom makes it a real winner!

that arcade when I was a kid was epic.

Best part of this resort (in recent times) was meeting you and Jenna on the balcony right underneath the monorail beam! 🥰👌💙 the perfect spot! 👌

I stayed when this was still very new. My kids who were 6 and 8 loved it and we got to see Disney characters at one breakfast !! We loved watching the monorail pass over as we ate ! Thank you for taking us back to that wonderful time ! 😊❤

I never realized how extensive that resort is. Thanks for the tour!

My husband and I stayed at the Contemporary on our honeymoon in 1974. We stayed a few times after that but not since purchasing DVC. BLT is one of my DVC home resorts which I will be staying at again in December 🤗 thanks for a wonderful video! I loved the opening! :_castle::_sse::_woohoo:

So glad you did an update, it's great to see everything and wow, that arcade massage chairs are calling our name. Great Monorail voice in the opening

I love this resort and will stay there when I go down. You have to get a park side view so you can watch the fireworks from your room. So cool.

The Contemporary brings back so many memories. I loved staying there when I was little

Ahhh the 5 legged goat twice

Thank you for the tour. I wish I were there right now. Staying in the main building, even if it’s only for a night, is on my bucket list.

My niece and I stayed in the Garden rooms in October of 2009 and it was a really nice option. I wanted to treat us to a deluxe resort on the monorail since we were only staying four days, and I was able to score a great priced for a long weekend in a Garden room. The Garden buildings are right across a small walkway to the main A-frame building, so it was a very convenient but less expensive way to enjoy a deluxe resort. I highly recommend it.

I grew up at the Contemp (as we called it). My mom opened it in the Pueblo Room and continued working at Disney, moving to Cape May when the Pueblo Room closed to create Chef Mickey's, for 42 years. I could write a book about my life at the Contemporary Resort... from the Tape Art to swimming to Discovery Island (before there were alligators), drinking virgin orange dacquiris brought by the servers on the beach behind the 2 pools, and having our Homecoming Dance on the 2nd floor... so many amazing memories. Thrilled to watch with you tonight, Josh! Thanks for the memories! Edit Add: The real Top of the World is where California Grill is now. We used to go up and watch celebrity singers and it was so elegant. I remember when only 20 or so people would walk onto the catwalk outside TotW (CA Grill now)... because people didn't have a clue they could go out and watch the fireworks. We also watched several rockets and Space Shuttles go up from that same catwalk. Florida being so flat, we could easily see the launches, even without binoculars. So many memories!

Josh, you really know how to do a tour! I love this resort!❤

This was the first Disney resort I ever stayed in during the 80s. Celebrated my birthday on that trip. Magical!

This was amazing Josh! This resort is so fascinating with the monorail running through it and the day couldn’t have been more beautiful. Please do more of these on the resorts!!

Absolutely love Contemporary resort, so many great memories there and at bay lake! 🥰 Plus there’s a Joffreys inside the resort which is a major win lol

That is an amazing construction shot of the contemporary isn’t it? So much detail in there…

Stayed there last year and loved it. Staying at beach club this year….. can’t wait!

That was great Josh! I was like 5 or 6 years old when I stayed in the main hotel and vividly remember going to the downstairs floor to the arcade to play air hockey. So much fun that resort. Someday I will go back and stay again!! This brought back so many awesome childhood memories, so appreciate it!
