In-Room Dining
In-room dining is available 24-hours daily. Choose from a variety of American favorites as well as specialty items particular to your Resort hotel. A minimum order may apply.
One of the most exciting features of Bay Lake Tower is the Top of the World Lounge which was named after the original restaurant located at the Contemporary Resort. The outdoor deck offers unparalleled views of the Magic Kingdom Fireworks and the music is piped in so guests can enoy the experience almost as if they're standing right there in the Magic Kingdom. (Access is limited and usage guidelines are enforced.)
TIP: Be sure to ask about the special 7-layer cake that is only served at this location – it's NOT on the menu. If you've got a sweet tooth, this dessert is sure to satisfy it. Also, the slice of cake is giant and made for two – or not!
Pools and Recreation
The Bay Lake pool has a two-story waterslide. There are also two spas and a children ’s wading pool that's shaped like Mickey Mouse's head.
Marina Boat Rentals: Guests can rent Sea Raycers, Boston Whaler Montauks, and SunTracker pontoon boats at the resort marina. For more information and pricing click HERE.
