Bayview Gifts at Disney’s Contemporary

Bayview Gifts is one of three gift shops at Disney’s Contemporary Resort. The gift shop is located on the resort’s fourth floor, which is commonly called the Grand Concourse. You’ll run into the gift shop when you’re coming and going from the escalator near the monorail’s entrance and exit.

Sometimes referred to as the BVG, Bayview Gifts is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. While shop hours are fairly consistent, they could fluctuate. So, make sure to check the My Disney Experience app for the exact hours on the day of your visit.

This gift shop is one of our favorite places to shop at Walt Disney World. You’ll want to note, however, that it’s not a sundries-style store. For groceries and health aides, you’ll want to shop at Fantasia Market, also located on the resort’s 4th floor. Bayview Gifts is where you’ll find resort-branded merchandise, apparel, and other types of souvenirs, which we’ll discuss in more detail below.

🛍️ What You’ll Find

Here is an overview of what you’ll find at Bayview Gifts.

Apparel

Bayview Gifts offers a variety of men’s, women’s, and children’s apparel items. The shop offers clothing items ranging from basic Disney-branded t-shirts to higher-end brands like Vineyard Vines and Tommy Bahamas. This shop is similar to Boutiki at the Polynesian.

You’ll also find a decent selection of swimwear for all ages and related products like sunglasses, goggles, and hats. Think of the BVG as a fun department store with hidden treasures, more than a shop offering basic needs.

Resort-Branded Merchandise

This is the gift shop for resort and monorail-related merchandise. The Contemporary is such an iconic hotel with two monorails running through it. You’ll likely find several displays of items featuring the resort’s logo and unique monorail items. It is also common to find Incredibles-themed merchandise. When Disney’s Contemporary was last refurbished, Incredibles theming was added to all of the resort’s tower and Garden Wing rooms. (See our merchandise reports below to preview items.)

Other

Bayview Gifts often has one of the best selections of Dooney and Bourke handbags with Disney theming. If you’re looking for a specific piece, we always suggest checking here for availability. They have an entire wall dedicated to higher-end handbags.

This gift shop also offers a display of treats at the register, with items similar to what you might find at the Main Street Confectionery, only on a smaller scale.

Seasonal Merchandise

Throughout the year, the gift shop will offer some of the following:

• Holidays (Halloween, Christmas, etc.)
• The latest special collections, trends, or collaborations.

Fun Fact: The BVG has huge windows that often receive fun wraps throughout the year. We always like to check out the latest look!
