Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort is set over a tropical lakeside paradise on the 45-acre Barefoot Bay. It is the largest resort currently on the Walt Disney World property, with 2112 rooms.
Guest rooms are clustered in five different "villages", each with the name of a different Caribbean island; Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, Aruba and Trinidad. In the middle of the Barefoot Bay lake you'll find Caribbean Cay Island, a great place to relax and unwind, complete with a beach, hammocks and secluded benches.
The rooms at the Caribbean Beach are the largest of all the moderate resorts, at 340 square foot per room. They are decorated in a soft tropical color scheme with white oak furniture. The rooms have subtle hints of Nemo from the "Finding Nemo" Disney-Pixar film.
For a premium price, guests can choose the newer pirate themed rooms in the Trinidad South building.
Most rooms in the resort have two double beds There are rooms with king sized beds available but many of these are handicapped rooms, which feature a larger bathroom and a wheelchair accessible shower instead of a bath tub.
Standard features of each room include:
Due to the resort's large size, it has six heated pools on site located throughout the island villages. The main pool complex at Old Port Royale has a colonial spanish theme and boasts two water slides, zero-depth-entry, water cannons and two 12-person hot tubs. There is also a water player area next to the pool for the kids.
The other pools are all of a reasonable size and are considered to be 'quiet pools'. The pools are all open from 8am - Midnight with a lifeguard present between 10am and 10pm.
Note that you will need to bring your towels from your room - if you need additional towels you can call housekeeping from your room phone (free) and they will bring them to your room for you.
The Old Port Royale complex contains an arcade, Goombay Games Arcade, with state of the art video games. It is open from 7am to 1am and uses a token system to use the arcade attractions. Guests can purchase tokens in the arcade. Some arcade games provide rewards in the form of tickets which can be redeemed for prizes.
There is also a children's playground located on Caribbean Cay Island.
Other on-site recreation includes bike rental, a jogging trail, volleyball courts and watercraft rentals.
The resort has its own bus service to get around the resort due to its large size. This is in addition to the standard Disney bus service. It doesn't share its bus route with any other resorts, so if you board a bus heading for Magic Kingdom, it'll only be stopping along the Caribbean Beach stops, then it'll go directly to the Magic Kingdom.
Busses operate from one hour prior to park opening hours and then for one hour after the parks close. Downtown Disney busses run until 2:00 AM.
There are two restaurants at the Caribbean Beach Resort:
- Old Port Royal Food Court is a counter service location with six stations offering a great selection of foods.

- Shutters at Old Port Royale is a table-service location open for dinner, with Caribbean cuisine such as red snapper, pineapple-marinated chicken, smoked prime ribs and pork ribs. Deserts change seasonally but do feature traditional items available year round, such as the key lime tart.
