When you’re planning a trip to Disney World, there’s a lot to consider — especially when you’re choosing a place to stay! Sure, you need a comfy place to sleep, but you also have to consider the dining options, location, transportation, and even the pool! If enjoying a dip in a Disney World hotel pool is important to you, you might want to make sure the pool is OPEN during your visit.

Believe it or not, Disney World pools can close for several months for extended refurbishments! So, before you book a stay, consult this list to make sure your hotel pool is up and running during your visit.
Below is a full list of Disney World hotel pool closures in 2025. Note that this list is subject to change, and the Disney World website should notify you of any new closures once you navigate to your resort homepage. If you see bright orange text on the Disney World website, that means Disney has a construction warning to tell you about. Consider this your warning!

Stormalong Bay — Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts
Stormalong Bay is closed from January through June 2025 for refurbishment.

The pool, lazy river, and pirate ship slide are all closed. If you’re staying at one of these two hotels, you can enjoy one of the leisure pools instead! There are two leisure pools at the Beach Club and one at the Yacht Club.
