The Walt Disney World Swan Reserve, previously known as The Cove, has been under steady construction for over a year. A few weeks ago we noticed a row of wave-themed paneling being added to one wing of the hotel, and this row is now complete.

More windows have also been installed.

The wave panels create a blue to white gradient on the side of the hotel.

The Walt Disney World Swan Reserve will feature a rooftop restaurant and lounge, which will have a dedicated ground floor entrance and elevator for those not staying at the resort. It will be a 375 seat upscale restaurant with a partial expo kitchen. The bar will have about 40 seats. The windows will be floor to ceiling to provide a great view of Walt Disney World, including a rooftop trellis area for unobstructed views.

Upon completion, Swan Reserve will join the Swan and Dolphin Resort complex near EPCOT with 349 rooms, taking the total rooms available at the complex to 2,600. Like the Swan and Dolphin hotels, Swan Reserve will have walking access to EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s BoardWalk, Yacht Club, and Beach Club resorts.
