Disney4me Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Hello!! Today we’re getting a SNEAK PEEK at Disney’s Riviera Resort! Riviera Resort We cannot wait to try out some of the food from the location’s restaurants, take a peek into the rooms, and meet with some of the people that made this huge project possible. Disney’s Riviera Resort First Look The Resort will offer Deluxe Studios, One and Two-Bedroom Villas, Three-Bedroom Grand Villas, and a Tower Studio. The tower studio is the first of its kind at Walt Disney World Resort. These rooms sleep up to two plus an infant and are located in the tower with the large RR logo on top. And get this! The rooms face directly towards the Italy Pavilion in Epcot. Riviera Resort Construction Riviera’s Exterior Disney’s Riviera Resort is set to open on December 16, 2019. We have been tracking the resort’s construction progress along the way — you can check that out here! Riviera Resort The resort is rapidly nearing completion, with Cast Members still hard at work. Riviera Resort Model Here is what you can expect to see when this new resort opens in just a few months! Amenities Outside you will find a more quiet pool known as the Beau Soleil Pool. There will also be a family pool, which includes the S’il Vous Play area which was inspired by Disney’s Fantasia! Riviera Resort Concept Art ©Disney Take a closer look at Riviera’s pools here! Disney’s newest mode of transportation, the Disney Skyliner Gondolas, will also be a feature of the Riviera Resort. Riviera Resort Skyliner The resort has it’s own walkway and entrance that is attached to the Caribbean Beach station. We rode the Skyliner for the FIRST time yesterday! Check out our thought here! Another cool thing about this resort is that depending on which side a guest’s room is facing, they may be able to see both Epcot and Hollywood Studios. But no matter the room, guests can head up to Topolino’s Terrace. Here, there will be views of Epcot and Hollywood Studios fireworks!

Riviera’s Interior One-Bedroom Villa The One-Bedroom Villa has separate sleeping areas to offer more comfort. The room can sleep up to five people and include 1 King bed, 1 Queen-size pull-down bed, and 1 single pull-down bed. One-Bedroom Villa One-Bedroom Villas also include a full kitchen with stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, a washer and dryer, a split bathroom with two sink areas, and a bubble jet bathtub. One-Bedroom Villa Restroom Let’s take a closer look at each of the sleeping arrangements! There is a single pull-down bed beneath the television, which we’ve seen this in many other resorts across property. One-Bedroom Villa Single Bed As you can see, Mickey and Pluto are snoozing on the balcony high above a Mediterranean beach. One-Bedroom Villa This is just the beginning of the Riviera-inspired artwork you’ll see throughout the room and the resort. Now, the second bed in the living room area blew our minds a little bit since it literally comes down from the wall and rests on top of the living room’s sofa! One-Bedroom Villa Queen Murphy Bed It seems like a normal wall covered in stunning Disney artwork, but it’s SO MUCH MORE. One-Bedroom Villa Queen Murphy Bed Once you pull the bed down, you will have a nice Queen-size bed. Above it is even more stunning Disney artwork. One-Bedroom Villa Queen Murphy Bed And get this! Disney really thought about comfort, ease, and storage when creating these rooms. So, next to the bed you will find cubbies AND outlets. The outlets even include USB’s! One-Bedroom Villa Queen Murphy Bed Now, let’s check out the main bedroom, which includes a King-size bed. One-Bedroom Villa Though the living area features its own balcony, you will ALSO find one outside the main bedroom. This will give parents the freedom to relax on the patio after the little ones have gone to sleep! One-Bedroom Villa This room also has a chair and a small desk inside! One-Bedroom Villa Here’s a look at the bedside desk area! One-Bedroom Villa This room also has pieces of stunning Disney and Riviera-inspired artwork! One-Bedroom Villa Now, let’s journey into the STUNNING bathroom area. One-Bedroom Villa The restroom has that incredible jet soaking tub and a sink area. One-Bedroom Villa Here’s a peek at the sink! One-Bedroom Villa The colors and the marble make the area feel very relaxing and spa-like. And they, of course, have the H20+ products readily available for guests to enjoy. One-Bedroom Villa Next to the shower, guests will find a toilet area and a separate sink. One-Bedroom Villa Here’s a look at the sink area! One-Bedroom Villa Above the toilet, there are towels and another piece of artwork. One-Bedroom Villa Now, let’s head out of the separate bedroom and into the living room area to take a look at the full kitchen! One-Bedroom Villa There is a seating area, a refrigerator, an oven, stove, sink, dishwasher, and a microwave! One-Bedroom Villa Guests will also have access to smaller amenities like a coffee pot and ice bucket. One-Bedroom Villa Guests will also have a full-sized Whirlpool refrigerator situated next to the seating area. One-Bedroom Villa Now, the seating area is pretty cool! Disney has added storage beneath the booth so guests will have a place to store child’s toys, smaller luggage, clothing, etc. One-Bedroom Villa And in the booth’s fabric, guests will find images of the Riviera. The detail really is everywhere inside of these rooms! One-Bedroom Villa Let’s also take a look at the washer and dryer location INSIDE the room! Washer and Dryer The two are stacked and attached! Washer and Dryer And there are a few stunning pieces of decor, especially when it comes to lighting. One-Bedroom Villa There are sconces in the living room… One-Bedroom Villa …and unique lighting fixtures in the bedroom. One-Bedroom Villa And y’all these new rooms are FILLED with intricate details that will take part in guests’ Riviera experience. From the details on the carpet, fabric, and artwork, a ton of work and thought went into creating this one-of-a-kind resort experience. One-Bedroom Villa You’ll find Mickey’s and Minnie’s on the curtains, carpet, and balcony. One-Bedroom Villas Here’s a look at what we can expect the views from the balconies to look like! One-Bedroom Villa Now, let’s journey into a Deluxe Studio. Fun fact! These rooms can be combined as one unit if desired, thus turning it into a Two-Bedroom Villa! Deluxe Studio The Deluxe Studio can also sleep up to five. It includes a Queen-size bed, a pull-down Queen-size bed, and a single pull-down bed. Deluxe Studio The studio also has a kitchenette and a private patio or balcony! Deluxe Studio Much like the One-Bedroom Villa, a pull-out bed will be found beneath the TV. Deluxe Studio It also will have plugs so guests can charge their phone right from their bed. Deluxe Studio The other Queen size pull-out will be positioned behind the couch and will come down from the wall. Deluxe Studio Still blows my mind that the couch is able to fold, allowing the bed to rest on top of it. Deluxe Studio The room also has a standard Queen-size bed. Deluxe Studio The room also features a set of nightstands. Deluxe Studios Disney wanted there to be a good amount of storage in the Deluxe Studio as well. Therefore, you’ll find a good bit of space beneath the bed. Deluxe Studio The room also has a small seating area! Deluxe Studio Let’s head into the restroom. Here, you will find a shower and tub combo, a single sink, and the toilet. Deluxe Studio Now, let’s check out the kitchenette area! Here, guests will find a microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker, and sink! Deluxe Studio It also has the fun blue backsplash seen in the One-Bedroom Villa. Deluxe Studio Disney will also provide hand dish soap, towels, a sponge… Deluxe Studio …a toaster… Deluxe Studio …and an ice bucket! Deluxe Studio You can also find incredible Disney and Riviera-inspired artwork in this room. Here’s just a peek at some of the stunning pieces. Deluxe Studio You may be able to spot Lightning McQueen on the one that is placed on the wall of the murphy bed! Deluxe Studio And the details continue into the fabrics. In this room, there are more nods to the Riviera Resort. You can spot a double R in the curtains! Deluxe Studio I’m also digging the lighting features in this room as well!
