2026-2027 Hotel Construction & Refurbishments at Disney World
Hotel refurbishments, resort construction, and character-inspired makeovers continue at Walt Disney World from now through 2027. This resource provides info on room renovations, what to avoid, where to book, and what to expect in terms of hotel work at Walt Disney World.
Walt Disney World continues to undertake refurbishments in an effort to modernize or refresh several of its resorts, as well as finish deferred maintenance that was postponed during the phased reopening. Consequently, there’s a growing number of smaller-scale projects that take certain buildings or a portion of rooms out of commission as part of more-targeted, rolling refurbishments.
We do Walt Disney World monthly hotel stays, usually emphasizing resorts where there are new things, changes, or ongoing construction to see how that harms, improves, or otherwise impacts the guest experience. If you’ve yet to book a hotel for your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation and want to be notified about all of the latest resort changes, sign up here for our FREE Disney newsletter here.
When booking a Walt Disney World vacation, we highly recommend taking into account recently-completed and ongoing construction projects at the various resorts, as these absolutely can impact the quality of your trip. Booking a hotel with a closed pool or construction noise and cranes right outside your window is obviously going to be a worse experience than a resort that just finished its big refurbishment and still has that fresh feeling and ‘new hotel’ smell.
Note that this does not include DVC villas if they do not impact the hotel side of a resort. For those projects, see our Disney Vacation Club Resort Refurbishments & Construction Timeline. That covers all of the room reimaginings at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and beyond that we just announced at the condo association meeting. Those projects also impact Boulder Ridge, Bay Lake Tower, and both Crescent Lake DVC resorts.
Suffice to say, a lot is happening on the hotel front at Walt Disney World. Let’s take a look at all of the current and upcoming major hotel projects that have the potential to impact guests, starting with the latest updates…
Ongoing or Upcoming Hotel Refurbishments
Disney Skyliner – From January 24, 2027, through January 30, 2027, Disney Skyliner will be closed for refurbishment. Complimentary bus service will be available.
Impacted Resorts:
- Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
- Disney’s Beach Club Resort
- Disney’s Beach Club Villas
- Disney’s Boardwalk Inn
- Disney’s BoardWalk Villas
- Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort
- Disney’s Pop Century Resort
- Disney’s Riviera Resort
- Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
We strongly recommend avoiding Skyliner resorts during this time, which does not include the Crescent Lake hotels. See Disney Skyliner Gondolas Closing for Quick Refurbishment in 2027 for more info and detailed advice.
All Star Movies Resort – Beginning in late May 2026, the rooms at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort will undergo planned refurbishment through the end of January 2027. During this time, Guests may see or hear construction work in the area, and alternate paths of travel may be in place.
This will almost assuredly by a soft goods refurbishment similar to the one recently completed at Pop Century. That means updating furnishings, including but not limited to wall coverings, flooring, linens, decor, and some furniture. The redone rooms at Pop Century look great: First Look Photo Tour of New Rooms at Disney’s Pop Century Resort.
This is also almost assuredly the start of a phased multi-year soft goods refurbishment to all of the All Stars. See Walt Disney World Gearing Up for Years-Long Value Resorts Room Refurbishment, Likely Lasting to 2028 or 2029 for more.
All Star Sports Resort – From now through late April 2026, the Surfboard Bay Pool and the kiddie pool at Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort will be closed for maintenance.
During this time, the Grand Slam Leisure Pool (pictured above) at Disney’s All-Star Sports will continue to be available. Additionally, Guests are welcome to use the other pools throughout Disney’s All-Star Resorts, including the Calypso Pool, Piano Pool and kiddie pool at Disney’s All-Star Music Resort; and the Fantasia Pool, Duck Pond Pool and kiddie pool at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort.
We’re big fans of the Grand Slam Leisure Pool, but it’ll probably be busy as a result. Accordingly, our second-favorite All Star pool is Calypso Pool at Music. Duck Pond at Movies is also a winner.
Animal Kingdom Lodge – From now through May 2026, guest rooms at Kidani Village at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge will undergo refurbishment, followed by refurbishment work at Jambo House from May 2026 through January 2027. During these times, guests may see or hear construction work in the area. All amenities will remain available throughout the refurbishment.
We covered what to expect from this construction at length in Room Reimagining at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge through 2027. What’s still unclear about this project involves the hotel side of Animal Kingdom Lodge, or just the Animal Kingdom Villas. The latter is the DVC side of the resort, and what is overdue for a refurbishment. Even so, by the time the DVC work is done in 2027, the hotel rooms might be due for another refresh.
Beach Club Resort – This hotel is undergoing visible exterior maintenance through late 2026, which will impact views from various locations throughout the resort, and at times, require alternate paths of travel.
As part of this work, the Tidal leisure pool will be closed for routine maintenance through early May 2026. Guests may see or hear refurbishment work in the area until the work is complete.
BoardWalk Inn – Throughout 2026, refurbishment work will take place in select areas of Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. While Guests may see or hear work during daytime hours, most Resort amenities—including dining, recreation, and merchandise locations—will remain available.
Walt Disney World still has not revealed what, exactly, this project entails. Based on what BoardWalk needs done, there’s a wide range of possibilities. At minimum, we know it’s a major project by virtue of it lasting throughout 2026. As for possibilities, see our comprehensive discussion in Big BoardWalk Mystery Construction Project in 2026.
From January 11, 2027 to April 2027, the Luna Park Pool, the Luna Park Crazy Play Area, and Leaping Horse Libations at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn & Villas will be closed for routine maintenance. Guests may see and hear construction until the work is complete. However, the Villas Pool and the Inn Pool will remain open for Guests to enjoy.
Luna Park Pool is the feature pool at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and it was last redone back in late 2020 to remove the “creepy clown” from the water slide. Hopefully this project is to reinstall that beloved, dead-eyed, spaghettios-haired clown!
Contemporary Resort – From now through late 2027, refurbishments will occur in select areas of Disney’s Contemporary Resort—including Bay Lake Tower and the main A-frame atrium. Please allow for extra travel time. Guests may also see and hear construction during their stay.
This multi-phased project has been underway for over a year already, and previously revolved around BLT. That’s finished now, and the description has been updated to drop the Convention Center and add the atrium. No visible work has begun in the A-frame, but is expected to start soon.
Additionally, from now through early May 2026, the Bay Cove Pool, the water play area and the whirlpool spa at Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort will temporarily be closed for maintenance. The Bay Lake Pool, the Cove Bar, the feature pool, the water play area and the whirlpool spa at Disney’s Contemporary Resort will remain open for Guests to enjoy.
From now through Late May 2026, there will also be exterior elevator landing repairs taking place at Bay Lake Tower. Consequently, the Skyway Bridge connecting Bay Lake Tower and the Contemporary Main Tower will be closed Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., reopening daily after 5 p.m. and remaining available evenings and weekends through May 1, 2026. Guests may need to use alternate paths of travel at times and may see or hear construction activity while work is underway.
Fort Wilderness Campground – Walt Disney World has introduced New DVC Cabins to Fort Wilderness Campground. More than 350 new cabins have replaced the old cabins, turning the resort side of the campground into a Disney Vacation Club property. This occurred loop by loop over the last two years and is now finished.
From now through mid-2026, construction will take place near the Meadow Swimmin’ Pool area. The Meadow Swimmin’ Pool and Wilderness Swimmin’ Pool will remain open for Guests to enjoy. During this time, seating availability around the Meadow Swimmin’ Pool may be limited and Guests may see or hear construction in the area. The nearby tennis courts, volleyball court and the Meadow Playground may be closed temporarily. Please note that Guests may see and hear construction in the area until the work is complete.
Right next door to Fort Wilderness is the construction of Disney Lakeshore Lodge (formerly Reflections), which has now reached its top height of 10 stories tall! This quite literally towers over the Settlement area, and construction has an outsized impact on Fort Wilderness guests, as cranes build that massive new resort about 100 yards from Fort Wilderness.
Grand Floridian Resort & Spa – Disney Vacation Club overhauled the Big Pine Key building of hotel rooms at Walt Disney World’s flagship resort. This building has since reopened and the new rooms have debuted–see Grand New Rooms at Walt Disney World’s Flagship Resort for a look inside. These reimagined rooms have since debuted on the regular resort side of the Grand Floridian, and all of the outlying buildings are now finished.
As part of the ongoing enhancements at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, refurbishment work will continue in select areas, including the porte cochere, through early 2027. Guests may see or hear refurbishment work during daytime hours or need to take alternate paths of travel. This project was recently extended from mid-2026 to early 2027 with the “including the porte cochere” line.
As part of this work, from mid-July through October 2026, Grand Floridian Cafe will temporarily close for a refresh. During this time, brunch will continue to be offered but will temporarily move to Cítricos. All other dining locations at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa will remain available for Guests to enjoy. Guests may see or hear refurbishment work during daytime hours and may need to take alternate paths of travel.
The main fruit of this project is the lobby overhaul, which is now completed. This includes “The Perch,” or the Birdcage Bar that replaced the iconic aviary in the lobby.
Old Key West Resort – Now through late April 2026, the South Point Pool and Spa, BBQ area and playground at Disney’s Old Key West Resort will be closed for routine maintenance.
During this time, Guests may see or hear maintenance activity during daytime hours and are encouraged to use the Sandcastle Pool or one of the resort’s other two leisure pools – the Turtle Pond Pool and Miller’s Road Pool.
Speaking of which, this follows the completion of the Turtle Pond Pool, Turtle Pond Pool Spa, the BBQ area refurbishment. It seems that Old Key West might be doing a phased refurbishment to its leisure pools.
Polynesian Village Resort – The good news is that the Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows between the existing Polynesian longhouses and Wedding Pavilion, near the Grand Floridian, is now open. The bad news is that work at the Polynesian isn’t finished.
Through 2026, some areas of the Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows are being refurbished. This work includes the reconfiguration of the front entrance roadway and bus area. While construction activity will be noticeable during daytime hours, efforts will be made to minimize disruptions.
Walt Disney World filed permits for a new entrance to the Polynesian (which would also impact the parking lot and bus loop), and there’s major work being done to re-route and expand Floridian Way, so that’s probably what’s referenced for the construction and refurbishments through 2026. This will be a lengthy project that is very minimally impactful to both the Poly and Grand Floridian.
Additionally, some views of the theme parks and other surrounding areas may be impacted. This is now noticeable around the Great Ceremonial House, to the point that Walt Disney World is warning guests who book ‘Ohana about impaired views of Magic Kingdom. Although this impacts ‘Ohana, we recently dined at the adjacent Tambu Lounge and enjoyed unblemished views.
Finally, there’s a new construction notice that was just added: from May 11, 2026 through late June 2026, the boat dock at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort will undergo routine maintenance. The dock will be closed and boat transportation to suspended from May 11-June 5, 2026. Please allow for extra travel time when arriving at or leaving the Poly.
We’d recommend heeding this ‘allow extra travel time’ warning, especially when leaving the Poly during peak periods. We already encountered long lines more than once for the monorail at times in April 2026, and that was before the boat dock refurbishment started. Without that to help absorb some of the crowd, the monorail station will be even busier.
Pop Century – From now through late April 2026, the kiddie pool deck at Disney’s Pop Century Resort will be closed for routine maintenance. During this time, the Hippy Dippy Pool and all other amenities will remain available. Guests may see or hear maintenance activity in the area during daytime hours.
The good news is that Pop Century is otherwise in tip-top shape, with the year-long resort refurbishment having wrapped up. We stayed at Pop Century this month (April 2026) prior to the pool deck closure, and the resort is looking fantastic!
Port Orleans Riverside – Walt Disney World has started its next slate of room reimaginings at Port Orleans Riverside, from now through August 2027.
The first phase of this project, impacts the Magnolia Bend rooms, which are mostly the Royal Rooms. When Magnolia Bend is done (which should be really soon), it’ll be time for Alligator Bayou to receive its next round of room redos and crews will move to that side of the resort. Accordingly, making a room request for Magnolia Bend in Spring 2026 and beyond will mitigate exposure to the second phase of this project.
Although not officially confirmed, it’s a near-certainty that the normal rooms in Alligator Bayou receiving a hard goods refurbishment is the second phase of this project. See Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort Room Reimagining Extended by Year-Plus to 2027 for more.
Saratoga Springs – Through mid-September 2026, The Turf Club Bar & Grill and The Turf Club Lounge at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa will be under refurbishment. During portions of the refurbishment, some areas will be temporarily closed, including:
- Through early August 2026: The Turf Club Lounge (The Turf Club Bar & Grill will remain open with a pop-up bar serving a modified Lounge food & beverage menu)
- Early to mid-August 2026: The Turf Club patio
- Mid-August – mid-September, 2026: The Turf Club Bar & Grill (The Turf Club Lounge will remain open)
Turf Club Bar & Grill is the restaurant itself, so the notable portion of this refurbishment doesn’t start until August 2026 and should wrap up in the span of a month. Fortunately, there’s ample options a short walk away at Disney Springs.
The tennis courts at Saratoga Springs are now closed for refurbishment and are expected to reopen in June 2026. During this time, the basketball court will also be closed.
Wilderness Lodge – Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge are undergoing exterior refurbishment work expected to continue through late 2026. These enhancements may impact views from various locations throughout the Resort. While most resort amenities will remain available, Guests may see and hear construction work during daytime hours.
The exterior work could actually impact Wilderness Lodge until 2027 if permits are accurate. As we discuss in greater detail in this post about Wilderness Lodge construction, that doesn’t really give us pause about staying there. With room requests, you may not notice any of the work at all.
In addition to this, there’s the above-mentioned resumption of work on Disney Lakeshore Lodge on the former River Country water park site. That will be less impactful to guests staying at Wilderness Lodge than Fort Wilderness, but there will be audible and visible construction from the Boulder Ridge side of the resort, especially.
From now through late July 2026, the boat dock at Wilderness Lodge will undergo routine maintenance. The dock will be closed and boat transportation temporarily suspended through May 1, 2026. This is the second phased closure of the boat dock this year, and bus transportation was available as an alternative during the first. We’d expect the same this go-round.
Yacht Club – Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is undergoing visible exterior maintenance through late 2026, which will impact views from various locations throughout the resort, and at times, require alternate paths of travel.
As part of this work, from now through early May 2026, the Admiral leisure pool will be closed for routine maintenance. Guests may see or hear work in the area during daytime hours until the refurbishment is complete.
In addition, Crew’s Cup Lounge is now closed, and is expected to reopen in May 2026. Following that, Yachtsman Steakhouse will temporarily close for a refresh in May 2026 and is expected to reopen by August 2026.

Stayed at Carribean beach in (april/may) 2017. booked a year ahead and received word of upcoming construction at our resort from Disney. Where accomadated al the way, got the choice to relocate to corranado springs or receive compensation. Chose the latter and noticed very little to nothing from the whole construction! Am going again in april/may 2020 and would like to know which moderate resorts to best stay away from in terms of upcoming construction. Which resorts are deu to an update is the question i geuss…
Hi Tom! My boyfriend and I just came back from a 4 night stay at Jambo house in a DVC savanna view studio. The construction didn’t bother us at all! We were facing the Arusha Savanna along the Zebra trail. You could see construction equipment/ workers from afar that was going on the Kudu Trail however it never impacted us or animal viewing. We never heard any equipment running either and almost everyday we were back semi-early. As a matter of fact the animals were wonderful! Giraffe was as close as it could get to us! I do have a picture where you could see the construction equipment where it wasn’t in use. Animal Kingdom Lodge has become my favorite resort!
Hi! Any idea of how the AKL refurbished rooms are going to look like? I am planning to go in February 2020: do you think that all the works are going to be finished by then? Thanks… Sylvia
HI,
We have a savanna view at Kidani Village planned for June. Is the Animal Kingdom Lodge refurbishment only at Jambo house, or at both resorts?
Thanks
After our first ever vacation to Disney World we fell in love with the magic that is Disney. So much so, that we decided to become DVC members last year. The trip where we fell in love with disney we stayed in The Contemporary Towers and LOVED it! The room was great, absolutely beautiful and in perfect Disney condition. Experiencing that quality and excellence we joined DVC…fast forward to our very first DVC vacation…we stayed at our home base of the Polynesian. We were so excited expecting something even better than the average guest would get. I mean you pay an arm and a leg to join and then continue to do so for years to come! If you want to stay in any accommodations other than a glorified Residence Inn-esque room you have to double up points by either banking, borrowing or buying additional points. Our building was in need of major repair. Elevators were so tight that oy my husband could go up with the luggage rack while I waited to ride with our three boys (ages 8, 4 and 2…that was super fun. Super, super fun.) Our room was anything but thrilling. We expected our room to be just as great as what we had at the Contemporary! It slept 5 and this room slept 5…well, there is a MAJOR difference between 2 real honest to goodness beds like we had at the Contemporary and the 1 queen bed / 1 twin trundle bed / 1 full pull out couch. Nobody wants to stay on one of those when you visit relatives, let alone when you pay out the nose to go to Disney…DVC or general vacation goer! The bonus of our room was that we had two bathrooms. No offense Disney, but whoopee. I mean, don’t get me wrong…being the only female in my family having two bathrooms was a bonus…MAJOR BONUS, but it would have been better to have the second bathroom smaller and the bedroom bigger with TWO queen beds instead of one queen bed and a pull out!
Plus, we noticed along with many other guests throughout MK that the cast members were extremely short and surly with guests!! I witnessed a cast member snap at a gentleman who was handicapped trying to get on the monorail! Mary Poppins actually snubbed and poo pooped away a young mom and her 4 or 5 year old son for an autograph! She shook shooed them and said she had a signing later on in the day if they wanted her autograph…that right then she was just going for a stroll. My. Jaw. Dropped. This poor woman who seemed to be alone with her young son, (who was the one holding his autograph book open and pen ready to go), had tears in her eyes as her little boy asked her why Mary Poppins was being mean and wouldn’t sign his book. I was blown away…the list of rude encounters the last time we were there in late November 2018 could go on and on. Again we love Disney and can’t wait to go back…but if there’s anyone who reads this that has some say in how things get done / fixed then our disappointments will not have been in vain. Also, if there is such a person or people who are reading this I have plenty of suggestions on other issues we and friends of ours have enountered as well.
Personally we would never, ever join the Disney DVC Club. You get very little for the tens of thousands you invest for a week to 2 weeks a year. Disney also has access to the DVC rooms and people not belonging can rent out those same rooms…Disney gets paid multiple times over. You could take that money plus the yearly dues and do Disney every year and stay Deluxe Suite for years to come and still have the access to your money. I love Disney too, but it is becoming ridiculously expensive. They want to cater to the elite rich who can afford to come every year, spend a week, on property, and in their parks where they will spend their liquid cash.
We went in nov 2018. So many rude guests. One man in his 60s even pushed my little son because he didnt move up in the line. One lady in her 50s fought with my son over the last star wars figure in Mk.
Hey guys, do we know if construction at Animal Kingdom Lodge will affect Kidani Village, too? We’re going in September from 4th thru 11th. I rented DVC points for our stay and the room is non-refundable, :/ The Savannah view experience is why we’re headed there too. Hopefully it won’t be as bad as what that one poster had to deal with.
Can I ask which parts of AKL are currently undergoing their refurb? We don’t go til August but looking to request second floor zebra trail, just wondering how they are spreading out the work?
Thanks so much!
Fyi the grounds clearing and construction for Reflections has begun. The walls are up, trees are falling, and dirt is moving. This is the status as of last night at the Hoop-de-do review.
I have reservations at Copper Creek in mid-May. I have stayed at Boulder Ridge a few times last year. This will be our first time at Copper Creek. One question I have is, when they did the refurbishments of OKW, did they add ice machines to each building complex or do you still have to walk to the check in area or the closest pool area for ice? That is ridiculous in my opinion. An ice machine should be in each complex area at least a couple of them just like walking down a hall in any deluxe resort.
We are staying at Pop Century in early July. Love the new rooms and our 3rd time staying there. Why pay more when you spend most of the time in the parks.
Agree Phil! We love love love Pop Century! We will also be there in early July! Possible Disney Fanatic Family meet up?
I made reservations for All Star Music in October for this coming October thinking renos would be complete. Any indication of resumed renos or when they might complete them? I really need to get a room with a queen for my tall son-in-law. Thanks for all your info
We just stayed at Music in Broadway this weekend and there was no sign of renovation anywhere. We definitely had an “old” room.
Pretty sure they’re still working on Movies buildings, from comments here. My sister’s family is in a renovated room at Fantasia this week.
My guess is that most of the new construction including resorts and attractions is due to the 50th anniversary of WDW/Magic Kingdom fast approaching in 2021.
We are staying at Kidani Village late September. Do we know if the construction is current affecting or possibly could be affecting the Kidani savanna in the Fall of 2019?
About the Wilderness Lodge: We’re booked for the first week in December for the sole purpose of seeing it for its Christmas decorations and general warm holiday ambience. I don’t think the light/young vegetation will be noticed by my 12 year old and definitely not our 2 year old. The wilderness theme is important to me, but I don’t know if it’ll impact our stay that much, unless the lack of vegetation is causing it to look barren. I would hope it’s not.
Thank you for updating this post. I see that you’ve added the photo of the work at Jambo House – Animal Kingdom Lodge at the top. Let me add our two cents on how awful that construction is. We had booked a savanna view room for spring break (mid-March 2019) and our savanna view consisted of port-a-potties, cranes/lifts, and trucks. Workers were on the balconies all day long. The animals would not come near the noise and activity. The hotel staff told us there was nowhere they could move us that wouldn’t overlook the refurbishment work. In our opinion, Animal Kingdom Lodge is so inconveniently located (even from the Animal Kingdom park itself) that there is no reason to stay there if you can’t get the savanna experience. If we had known about the work ahead of time, we would not have come.
Thanks for the first-hand update on this. We’ve stayed at Jambo House twice this year (both times with savanna views, but earlier in the year than you) and never noticed anything, so my inclination was that it’s “minor” in terms of guest impact.
However, your comment has me rethinking that. I’ll update this again later today with a blurb about the potential savanna-view impact at AKL. Thanks!
You rock, Tom! In our experience Disney is usually good at warning people about refurbishment impacts (prior stays at the Grand Californian come to mind) so we were very surprised. This time around, there was just a letter on our bed when we arrived assuring us that the construction crews would not make noise really early in the morning or at night. Uhm, thanks?
Hi
My family is staying here in November some coming all the way from Australia so there are around 20 of us. I really hope work will be finished as holiday is costing a fortune and would hate for this to have a bad impact
When are the villas at Saratoga Springs going to be redone. We just returned from a train there and the villas need it.
We are arriving May 26th, this year and are staying at the Port Orleans Riverside, with our dog. What buildings in Riverside have finished the soft refurbishment? Thanks!
I have seen some major construction at almost every resort across DW in the past couple years, but it appears that The Contemporary has largely avoided it.
Have there been any rumors of major overhauls coming that way anytime soon?
Hi, We were thinking about visiting July 2020, but have been reading about the construction and the possible walling off of the entrance to Epcot. Having been before in the year 1999 for the millennium celebrations I know how important pictures are and it would be a real shame for the entrance to be walled off. Is this is a definite? Are there any other construction or closures planned for July 2020.
By the way, thank you SO MUCH from the UK, for such a wonderful and informative website!
We are planning to go to WDW first week of May 2020 and stay at The Contemporary. Will the Star Wars be open by then? Is May 2021 vacation a better option? We will be flying all the way from Manila, Philippines.
yes, star wars galaxy edge is due to open the end of 2019!
The Contemporary is an awesome place to stay! We have never had a bad stay or room there!!
star wars galaxy edge is set to open August 29th 2019
What is happening at Port Orleans resort? We are staying in the Bayou, supposed to be in Building 26 and wondering if it has been upgraded yet?
As of January 19-27 that section wasn’t updated! We stayed in that building and there was nothing happening!
Thanks. We just got back on the 15th of March and that building has not been refurbished yet but the pool was done in the summer. We still had a fun holiday.
