There are three primary Disney-owned resorts, plus two third-party hotels, that offer a dedicated walking path to Disney's Hollywood Studios. The closest options are Disney's BoardWalk Inn, Disney's Yacht Club Resort, and Disney's Beach Club Resort. These "Epcot Area" resorts are connected to the park by a scenic paved pathway that runs alongside the canal, typically taking between 15 to 25 minutes depending on your pace. Additionally, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin (and the Swan Reserve) are located along this same waterway and offer walking access. While the path is well-lit and beautiful, many guests find it physically demanding in the Florida heat and may opt for the "Friendship Boats" or the Disney Skyliner instead. This walking access is a major "pro" for these resorts as it allows you to bypass the long morning lines for buses or gondolas.
