If you’re planning a Disney World trip, you’re probably thinking a LOT about your hotel, from the room size and transportation to dining and pools. If you only choose your resort for the pool, then Disney’s newest hotel will be your new favorite place to stay.
Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge boasts so many pools themed after some iconic Disney movies. While the resort won’t open until July 1st, 2027, we just got a close-up look at the pools under construction!
Lakeshore Lodge is currently under construction, and @bioreconstruct captured some great aerial drone footage of the progress. In this picture, we can see that the massive main pool complex is about half the size of the parking lot!
Lakeshore Lodge’s main pool complex features two main pools. The Wetlands will be a place where guests can find both fun and relaxation amidst spectacular water features. The lazy Daydream River is where ALL guests can sit back, relax, and float on an inner tube while the river carries them through The Wetlands. Plus, Lakeshore Lagoon, a zero-entry pool for guests of all ages, is the heart of The Wetlands and will feature a spiral waterslide. And we can see them both in these new pictures!
We can clearly see Lakeshore Lagoon on the left, with what looks like blue waterslide pieces deconstructed inside. To the right, the full path of the Daydream River has been revealed, with two entrances and three pedestrian bridges above the water. Hiding in the building’s shadow are Addie and Bonnie, the giant otters of Otter Springs, a wet play area inspired by Disney’s Pocahontas.
We also got a picture of Lakeshore Lodge’s second pool area. Perspective Pond features a relaxing leisure pool and whirlpool spa, which is perfectly positioned for views of Magic Kingdom fireworks in the evenings. While it’s noticeably smaller compared to The Wetlands, this cozy pool is under construction.
We’ll be sure to update you on Lakeshore Lodge’s construction progress. Stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more Disney World construction updates!
