It's interesting that you mention seating for pizza esp for late at night or evening. Are you speaking on when you don't have a room yet ready because anyone that has a room would just bring their pizza to the room. There is a new seating section in the lobby but that just opened a year ago! I agree there should be seating for everybody outside especially with ice cream and pizza taking on!

Even those with a room may want to sit and enjoy the pizza along the boardwalk and views across Crescent Lake.

There are also people who go to the boardwalk at night but aren't staying there -- we like to go there one evening after EPCOT to relax with a pizza (or at least we did; supposedly the pizza quality has declined significantly so that could change things) and possibly go to Jellyrolls before heading back to our resort.

The veranda off the Belle Vue Lounge is a nice place to sit and eat if there are any available chairs, though.

Most Definitely! I love hanging out there as well! That's sad to hear about the quality of the pizza..would it be the same if you got pizza inside the main restaurant. I haven't had their pizza before...only ice cream at the Boardwalk thus far..

And they charge a $45 resort fee + $36 per day for parking. If you are parking a car, you may come out ahead at one of the Disney resorts!

The Grand Destino tower has become our go to if we aren't splurging on our trip. While the location of the Crescent Lake resorts/Swolphin resorts can't be beat and I do miss that, the price is just that much better when on discount at CS. $275/ night vs. $430/night is just a no brainer for my family.

While your point isn't the comparison, problem is that the comparison is so off. Swolphin now costs almost as much as BWI and Y&B. The only reason not as much is because they don't have the Disney tax for being a Disney resort. And it is also a deluxe resort with as many, if not more amenities as the other Crescent Lake resorts.

Rack rates for a week 6 months from now (July 27th- August 3rd) (per night excluding Tax)

Boardwalk inn Villas $596
Boardwalk inn $589
Beach Club Villas $559
Beach Club $578
Yacht Club $591

Dolphin ($251+$45)= $296
Swan ($317+$45)= $362
Swan Reserve ($382+$45)= $427

Even if you add in $36 for parking (which many don't) Swolphin is still significantly cheaper than the Disney Resorts.

Looking at rack rates are a different story but if you look at the rooms with the current discount that everyone qualifies for, Beach Club is $375/Night, Boardwalk $383/night right now (looking at a week in July) and the Swolphin resorts are (refundable rates) Dolphin $353/Night, Swan $393/Night, Reserve $472/Night. Trust me, you want to pay the extra 20 bucks a night for the BC vs. Dolphin, all others are higher.

As mentioned, then you'd have to add in the $36 for parking a night at Swolphin.

Wow this has devolved into a hotel room rate discussion... I guess the point is that with prices this high there should be more and better food options available...

Definitely! especially for the most expensive $ resorts The Grand Floridian, Poly, and Contemporary I'd argue about all their quick services doesn't even match what other quality quick services on property! You were speaking not enough outdoor seating at the Boardwalk, well let me say Gasparilla Grill tends to keep it's indoor quick service seating temperatures freezing... I've literally never sat anywhere so cold, as if I was in an Elsa supposed section of World of Arrendale lol. Even sitting 2 min it's literally screaming Let IT GO!!!!
