The allure of Walt Disney World Resort is irresistible for families, couples, and Disney lovers worldwide. One option that enhances this experience is Disney Vacation Club (DVC), a flexible timeshare program offering access to the Disney magic. When it comes to choosing a timeshare resort, proximity to the beloved Magic Kingdom is often a significant factor for DVC members. Let's explore the Disney timeshares closest to the Magic Kingdom park.
Topping the list is the Bay Lake Tower, part of the iconic Contemporary Resort which is one of the original Disney hotels dating back to 1971. This ultra-modern, high-rise resort is the epitome of convenience and luxury, located within walking distance of the Magic Kingdom.
Disney's Contemporary Resort Bay Lake Tower is linked to the Magic Kingdom via a dedicated walking path and the Contemporary Resort’s monorail platform, providing unparalleled access to Cinderella's Castle, Tomorrowland, Adventureland, and all the attractions within. DVC points owners at Bay Lake Tower have access to amenities at both Bay Lake and the Contemporary.
Next up are the Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, another resort with Disney timeshares that is very close to the Magic Kingdom. This Victorian-themed resort exudes an air of timeless elegance and is within walking distance as well as a single monorail stop away from the park.
Disney has recently expanded its timeshare offerings here, as DVC points owners have access to an additional 200 new Resort Studio suites to complement its existing range of accommodations. With its white-sand beach, world-class dining, and the full-service Senses Spa, the Grand Floridian beautifully combines proximity to Disney’s first theme park with an indulgent resort experience.
Disney's Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, situated on the southern shore of the Seven Seas Lagoon, is part of the second original Disney hotel dating to the Magic Kingdom’s opening in 1971. The Polynesian offers quick access to the Magic Kingdom via the resort monorail link as well as a fun boat ride across the Lagoon.
The resort's South Pacific theme ensures a tranquil escape from the park's excitement, while its easy distance from Magic Kingdom makes it a popular choice among DVC members. Check out the fireworks from the banks of the Lagoon as well as the Electrical Water Pageant. New Disney timeshare villas at the Polynesian are set to debut in late 2024, giving even more options to Disney points owners.
