RENTAL TIPS
DISNEY CONTEMPORARY RESORT
With a name that befits its architecture, Disney's
Contemporary Resort offers Walt Disney World guests
the convenience of staying "next door" to Magic Kingdom
in the comfort of one of Disney's deluxe resorts.

Rising 14 stories from the shores of Bay Lake and Seven
Seas Lagoon with its familiar A-frame design, the resort is
a 655-room modernistic marvel complete with a
90,000-square-foot convention center, three full-service
restaurants, tennis center, marina and three swimming
pools. The Walt Disney World monorail makes a stop
inside the resort thanks to the monorail beam that
extends through the center of the A-frame.

One of two Disney resort hotels that opened with Magic
Kingdom in 1971, Disney's Contemporary Resort was
built on a 55-acre site adjacent to Magic Kingdom. Living
up to its modern style, the hotel was constructed by
methods that were ahead of their time.

While the hotel's steel skeleton was being constructed at
the site, individual rooms were being built and finished at
Walt Disney World on an "assembly line" with workers
completing 15 units per day. As each room passed
through the specially constructed building, the electrical,
mechanical and plumbing facilities were added piece by
piece.

Once furnished, the nine-ton guestrooms were trucked to
the site, lifted by crane and slid into the steel structure --
much like an oversized set of dresser drawers. The entire
structure was then covered by specially designed,
sun-resistant glass.

DISNEY CONTEMPORARY RESORT DINING
High atop the resort on the 15th floor sits one of the
jewels in the Walt Disney World crown -- California Grill.
Since opening in 1995, the award-winning restaurant has
earned a reputation as one of the best in America with
extraordinary cuisine and outstanding wines, and the view
is stupendous. It's hard to decide which is more fun:
watching the energetic chefs in the open kitchen, or a
sunset over Magic Kingdom.

Through the years, Disney's Contemporary Resort has
been updated and renovated. In 1991, the convention
center was constructed and quickly became a favorite
meeting location for groups at Walt Disney World Resort.

CONTEMPORARY RESORT ACTIVITIES
The hotel is also known for recreation. Swimming pools,
tennis courts, beach volleyball, the fitness center and
arcade are popular guest favorites, and the full-service
marina offers boat rentals, bass fishing excursions,
parasailing, Sea-Doos, wakeboarding and water skiing.

Reservations for Disney's Contemporary Resort can be
made by contacting 407/W-DISNEY (934-7639) or a
travel agent. Rates vary depending on season and room
type. Additional information is also available at
