Hello Jackie staying in our Disney Boardwalk Yacht club and beach club resort this year check it out someday one of my favorites Acade games 🎯🎮🎮 lots of people and a big swimming pool comes with waterslide had some Disney fun day this is Jenna Dabao
Jackie you truly are one of the best vloggers out there who are covering WDW at this time. You got the IT factor. You're special and you bring great warmth, intelligence and female energy to your work. I love all the guys out there too, but you can tell the difference. Keep doing what you are doing.
My husband and I got married at the Swan last year and had an amazing experience. We even got a pic with that stormtrooper photo op in our wedding outfits! I enjoyed this walkthrough, it brought back some happy memories!❤
Honestly I think the Swan and Dolphin look very cool. They're different, unusual, and prompt an emotional response... modern stuff just doesn't do that.
I love the coloring of the Dolphin and Swan resort and can tell that they each have their own cool vibes. The boardwalk deli looked wonderful with good looking food.
Love the walk to the S&D from the Boardwalk(add that to the list), the design of the S&D is a masterpiece for Disney and we are always pointing to it while driving by. You’re so much fun to watch while doing your tours…Thanks
Some of our favorite Disney days have been spent just casually perusing the resorts! Fully support a chill holiday spent _away_ from the parks. Garden Grove looks so pretty, and so well-themed! We've always found the Swan to be such an intimidating structure, looming over the skyline like that. It looks like a really nice resort, though, and very affordable for a property that is _technically_ a Disney hotel. Such beautiful landscaping and water feature placement...definitely interesting and eye-catching, as you said. And lunch on the boardwalk looked pretty great too! I have to say, though, that the flower children chairs at the Boardwalk Inn are *_way_* scarier than 9/10 haunts we visit 😂 Thanks for taking us on your holiday stroll, Jackie! Great vlog.
Thanks for the great video to show off those great resorts at the boardwalk. You show and tell about them so well I appreciate the History, fun facts,& details.❤
Great video Jackie!! Glad you had a great time!! I love Boardwalk Resort!! It’s so pretty inside!! I love your Mickey Mouse sweatshirt. It’s so adorable!! Omg the grilled cheese looks so yummy!! I love grilled cheeses!! It’s perfect when you dip it in ketchup!! 😃😃😂😂😊😊
Though we've only been once, the Swan and Dolphin's Food & Wine Classic held on the Michael Graves causeway is a wonderful (but pricey) event during the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival.
We stayed at the Dolphin for the first time a few years ago and we were very happy with it. All the perks of a Disney resort but it's the price of a moderate but super close to SO much and walkable. Also, there IS a restaurant open all day in the basement of the Dolphin that's sort of like a cafeteria. We didn't eat there when we were there, but we visited it and it was odd because no one else was there and there was only 1 worker and it is hidden way at the end of a long hallway behind some elevators. It's such an weird place. It's called Picabu.
I went back there and it was closed, so weird and empty back there. Maybe I was there in the tiny space between breakfast and when they reopen for lunch. The swan and dolphin are interesting and if you can get a good deal it’s such an awesome location!
We were at the parks on Monday and it was the most crowded I've ever seen! However Sunday when it rained all day, Magic Kingdom was empty! So, we made the best of it all! Thank you for the video, Jackie!
I love when Jackie goes and shows us around disneyworld like not judt the parks but the whole Orlando area and disney related bc this is home so why not show off what great here ❤
I have never stayed at the Swan and Dolphin , they are on my bucket list. The hotels look super nice and have different theming than the regular Disney resorts. Don’t get me wrong. I love staying at the Disney resorts. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else, but I would be open to try the other hotels on Disney property. I really wish that coffee bought in the boardwalk was bigger. I love to go look at cafés and try different drinks I would normally not buy. I have never been to any of those dancing clubs on the boardwalk. I feel too old 😂 maybe in my younger days I would have. Honestly, I would just have a great day if I could just ride the Skyliner back-and-forth. It’s something that I have to do every time I go.
Ah! We were just there! Literally. We were actually staying at the Swan during the Presidents Day week. That day we slept in and walked to Epcot for the day. So close to finally running into you, and yet... Oh well. How funny. Oh my gosh! We left the hotel when Happy was playing! I was dancing with excitement and clapping with a little kid. We walked by the wedding! You were sooooooooo close!
I did this same exploration on my last trip! The Fridays of a Disney trip always end up being a day to resort hop for me. I had breakfast at Topolinos, wandered the hotel, and took the Skyliner over to Epcot to do that whole resort loop. It was such a luxuriating and relaxing day. I also had my first beaches and cream shake and learned they make boozy ones 😂
@SuperEnthused this video is amazing. My daughter is getting married in Nov at the reserve and guests are staying at the Dolphin. So this is great to share with family and friends!!
I grew up on the Boardwalks of the Jersey Shore, Miss them SO much living in Florida! Always love the Boardwalk Resort😎I was surprised they let you park there, they stopped that for a while, only guests or with a dining res.
If you're ever at the dolphin around 5 o'clock, sometimes you'll see bald Eagle sitting on top of the dolphin heads. We've seen them twice when we were there check it out.
Love the swan & dolphin. Hubby used to work at Juan and Only's decades ago. Thanks for showing the beautiful Disney beyond the parks especially when it's so crowded. 🎉 -western NY Aimee
We loved the Boardwalk when we stayed there in September. We stayed in an updated room. It was fantastic to be on the board walk and spend the evening there one night after we got off the Disney Wish before we headed home. Fantastic Resort!
We used to park at Boardwalk when going to Epcot...for over 20 years really. I love the place but I am NOT happy about ESPN being replaced. We've watched so many ballgames there and the only alternative was River grill and now that's gone. Still..a great place to just walk around and really pretty at night. I thought Lowes ran the Swan/Dolphin. I believe they run Universals resorts. At least the new ones at Epic. One can walk to studios from either place as well so great location
Jackie, my wife and I are taking a cruise on the Fantasy A Very Merry Christmas! We are staying at the Dolphin after the cruise for 2 days. I viewed your video to help us decide. I am using Marriott points. I didn’t realize the hotels were on Disney property. As always very informative and a joy to watch. Will you be doing an update on Disney Springs soon? I realize you are fully immersed in Halloween season now. Keep up the Vlogs. 😂❤
It's ironic that WDW, a place for children of all ages, is one of the few places where my advanced age is a benefit. This is my 50th year of going to WDW. More importantly I got to experience Pleasure island in its and my prime.
We loved staying at the Dolphin but the prices have gone up so much each year. We would always get a great rate to stay but haven’t in years. But then again if looking at Pop in April is over $270 I’m afraid to see what Swan or Dolphin would be lol. Hopefully one day we can go back to our “home hotel”.
Hi Jackie, thank you so much for this video and the information, now I know I could just go to boardwalk without staying at the hotel inside Disney. I love all your videos.
Love the swan & dolphin and the reserve they all have their own unique touch and of course plenty of restaurants and close to the parks we loved staying at each of them they always make us feel so welcomed ❤🥰 hope you get to stay in one of them soon Jackie!
You just hop on the monorail in front of EPCOT, go to the TTC, and either walk to the poly - which I show you how to do in this video: Trying NEW Disney Snacks at Polynesian & Magic Kingdom: th-cam.com/video/6GqYOuzuLdE/w-d-xo.html Or switch to the resort monorail loop. Easy peasy!
@@SuperEnthused oh THANK YOU!!!! Your monorail video is what inspired me to go to the Polynesian and Grand Floridian on our arrival day! Seeing the skyliner at the beginning of this video made me wonder how we were going to get there from Riviera Resort.
Such a fantastic idea for a video🎉❤ I love this area, more times than not we stay at the Swan😊 So much to do and see in this area🎉 And when that cake shop opens…😍😋
Hi, we will be staying at the Swan and wondered about getting the bus to magic kingdom from Broadwalk. Would anyone know roughly how long it takes from Swan to Broadwalk please? 😊
You might want to look into Old Key West as the rooms are larger than most on property. It's a DVC resort but you can stay there even if you aren't or you can rent points from a dvc member.
You're a videos want my husband I want to live there more and more. I wish we could move there today. But we have to save our money so we can buy a home. We're hoping in a year. So then we'll see you in our other vloggers. That we watch in the parks can't wait..
Great video Jackie, this is the first time since I’ve subscribed to your channel that I’ve watched every video you’ve uploaded. So far I’ve enjoyed every video you’ve uploaded this year
😮 Thanks for showing the Boardwalk area and The Swan and Dolphin. We plan to stay at the Dolphin on our next trip in 2025 or 2026, still waiting for money to be enough 😂 after Covid job changed and not as much as i made before😢 Anyway, the Swan and Dolphin are a beautiful resorts and cheaper than some other resorts at Disney World, so we hope to have a 2 week stay in near future😊 Love relaxing and informative vlogs from you. Thank you so much for everything you show us. Be Safe Take Care 😊❤ oh and Hi to Sam to😊
I'm sorry on top of the swans, not the dolphin. My mistake when I saw the dolphin. I mean when I saw the swans. That's what I meant not the dolphins right on top of their heads. We saw the bald eagles. It was really cool to they must have a nest somewhere close by.

I think the Swan and Dolphin are great! They do remind me of Disney in the 90s when our family first visited Disney World.
That’s what I love about it, the 90s look and design.
I love the design of that hotel. color and everything.
Honestly I think the Swan and Dolphin look very cool. They're different, unusual, and prompt an emotional response... modern stuff just doesn't do that.
It also depends if you find it nostalgic because they are something you remember from your childhood.
Fantastic comment and take.

Grew up staying at the Dolphin every summer. My husband and I were married at Sea Breeze Point at the Boardwalk. Perfect video! Thank you! 💛
What beautiful memories those must be!
Good morning Jackie! 😃 Ha, that is exactly what the dance hall feels like! 😂
I love this resort loop soooo much, thanks for sharing!
Thank You Jackie for this funnn, warm hearted engaging vlog! So much thoughtful insights..... very much appreciated!
Stayed at The Boardwalk last April and it was amazing!!!! One of our favorites ❤❤
Love the Swan and Dolphin resorts. I remember being down there when they were building the Dolphin!
"Oh, look a ❤" Love your way of looking at the world and showing us all the details! Great video! So enjoyable!❤
Very informative thank you ❤

The resorts are my favorite part of WDW!
The first time I went to Disney World was in the 80s. They were building that then. I think it looks awesome!
The hubs and I love the Swan & Dolphin resorts.
Beautiful video! God bless you! ❤

Especially breakfast
Love when you do resorts tours

Ah the rain must have chased the crowds away temporarily! This week has just not let us with the crowds wow!
Swab and dolphin looks beautiful!!
I love when Jackie goes and shows us around disneyworld like not judt the parks but the whole Orlando area and disney related bc this is home so why not show off what great here ❤
Really enjoyed this video 🩷
Hey Jackie, great to see blue sky’s. Enjoyed the video! Stay awesome 😎
Oooh this video has me so excited! I'm going to be there in a couple weeks 🎉
I have never stayed at the Swan and Dolphin , they are on my bucket list. The hotels look super nice and have different theming than the regular Disney resorts. Don’t get me wrong.

I love the look of the statues on the hotel it’s so cool, I’ll never stay there though astronomical prices!!!
Another great video my friend oh I'm still watching this lol.
It’s a HEART! ❤️ my question answered! Thanks, Jackie! ❤😊
Hahaha just a silly little thing but it makes me happy 😄
Thanks for sharing. In 1996 family stayed at yacht club resorts. L.oved them never got to
Ah! We were just there! Literally. We were actually staying at the Swan during the Presidents Day week. That day we slept in and walked to Epcot for the day. So close to finally running into you, and yet... Oh well. How funny.
Oh my gosh! We left the hotel when Happy was playing! I was dancing with excitement and clapping with a little kid. We walked by the wedding! You were sooooooooo close!
Yippee! I was just planning a visit to Swan🎉
I did this same exploration on my last trip! The Fridays of a Disney trip always end up being a day to resort hop for me. I had breakfast at Topolinos, wandered the hotel, and took the Skyliner over to Epcot to do that whole resort loop. It was such a luxuriating and relaxing day.

Love the Boardwalk area but I do miss the ESPN restaurant.
Yes that sign if for the cheerleading competition. Take it from a cheer coach cheerleaders will take any opportunity or grassy place to practice
Great way to start the day! We look forward to visiting WDW again in September/October timeframe. 😊
The outside of Swan and Dolphin always reminds me of the Disneyland Paris hotels, which I guess makes sense given they're from the same era
Yea I can totally see that!
Glad you stopped to get the pebble out of your shoe! 👟 😊😂
😂 gotta have a silly moment for something silly 😂
Didn’t think this weekend would be as busy as it was (we went Friday) - noted for our next trip 😂
@SuperEnthused this video is amazing. My daughter is getting married in Nov at the reserve and guests are staying at the Dolphin. So this is great to share with family and friends!!
How beautiful that will be!!
I've never been to this part nice vlog 👌
The only Disney videos I still watch are yours. Thank you Jackie. Love you ❤
I grew up on the Boardwalks of the Jersey Shore, Miss them SO much living in Florida! Always love the Boardwalk Resort😎I was surprised they let you park there, they stopped that for a while, only guests or with a dining res.
Good morning Jackie; I find a lot of the restaurants at Swan and Dolphin are really good. Thanks again for the resort walk abouts!!! LOVE THEM!
I love the swan and dolphin resort!!! Yes it’s a busy holiday weekend
Boardwalk is my favourite ressort. Ending the evening at Bellevue Lounge
20:40 - damn, that makes me feel like I missed some free shows on the lawn. Maybe Universal doesn't have those signs up yet
😂 apparently the cheer groups like to do their thing and Disney had to put this up!
I haven’t heard that place before but man Disney has some boardwalk hotels. I’m might try to stay here sometime.
If you're ever at the dolphin around 5 o'clock, sometimes you'll see bald Eagle sitting on top of the dolphin heads. We've seen them twice when we were there check it out.
That boardwalk kiosk building that they were doing construction on is going to be Blue Ribbon Corndogs like they have at Disneyland
Ahhh that’s right! cool! So many changes coming to boardwalk. It’s a good thing.
Love seeing you show the resorts so much! I pretend I’m there with ya! Enjoy your day! 🩷
I went to a tech conference at the Dolphin in 2019. It was nice!
Love the swan & dolphin. Hubby used to work at Juan and Only's decades ago. Thanks for showing the beautiful Disney beyond the parks especially when it's so crowded. 🎉

this makes me so happy!!! I hope you have the best cruise and trip! I get so happy just thinking about a Christmas cruise!!
Genuinely wouldn’t be surprised is Disney did a resort pass upsell next, to make the resorts feel more exclusive or top level annual pass only.
It's ironic that WDW, a place for children of all ages, is one of the few places where my advanced age is a benefit. This is my 50th year of going to WDW. More importantly I got to experience Pleasure island in its and my prime.
Awesome video as always super enthused love your videos be safe out there

Thanks for showing us around the Swan and Dolphin! We stayed at the Swan and would definitely stay there again! 😊
Love the video
I got to visit Disney boardwalk for the first time ever on Valentine's day!!! 💕
Hi Jackie, thank you so much for this video and the information, now I know I could just go to boardwalk without staying at the hotel inside Disney.
I love all your videos.
The little kiosk is Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs. Put in a real sports bar.
Hey Jackie I enjoy your videos & I hope you have a great day & week.😊

How does one get from the skyliner at Epcot to the monorail to go to Polynesian resort?
Oh, and AMAZING vid as ALWAYS Jackie!
You just hop on the monorail in front of EPCOT, go to the TTC, and either walk to the poly - which I show you how to do in this video:

In November we ate at the new Mexican restaurant at the dolphin. I believe it was really good have you eaten there?
The new Marriot is way better. But I love my Dolphin balcony. And that I used to get rooms there for less than $200 per night.
I miss the good prices! Now it seems harder to find a deal at swan or dolphin.
@@SuperEnthused Right?! We got a good deal when we went in January. But deals for the rest of the year are looking few and far between😳
Great informative vlog as always.
The Swan Boats are FREE to guests.
❤❤❤
Hi, we will be staying at the Swan and wondered about getting the bus to magic kingdom from Broadwalk. Would anyone know roughly how long it takes from Swan to Broadwalk please? 😊
Great video Jackie ❤
Hay super enthused like dolphin and Sean resort Disney resort big fan hugs❤❤
Fantasia Mini Golf is right next door.
Which is coser..... DL and DCA or the Swan and Dolphin?
Hey... Great video. Can anyone tell me which resort, besides wilderness cabins, can accommodate larger families? Thanks!
You might want to look into Old Key West as the rooms are larger than most on property. It's a DVC resort but you can stay there even if you aren't or you can rent points from a dvc member.

Please note the pools are in no way heated to a level of a WDW hotel. And the pool area is subject to drunk rowdies attending conventions.
Il Mulino is the Best Italian restaurant at WDW.
I'm sorry on top of the swans, not the dolphin. My mistake when I saw the dolphin. I mean when I saw the swans. That's what I meant not the dolphins right on top of their heads. We saw the bald eagles. It was really cool to they must have a nest somewhere close by.
the piano in the Swan lobby is gone
Insightful and incisive monolog....thank you
What fancy cheerleading squad is staying at the Swan and Dolphin?
Cheer competitions take place at WDW in February each year. Thousands of cheerleaders from around the country are unleashed on the parks at that time.
@@momokoblue8032 yes, I know. And I feel like they wouldn't wander into Swan and Dolphin unless they were staying there.
