Best for families, golfers and guests who want a full-service resort with multiple pools, a lazy river and on-site championship golf.

Best for guests who want easy pedestrian access to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios and prefer a Disney Crescent Lake experience.
When Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate wins: choose Omni if your priority is resort recreation (lazy river, wave pool, waterslides), multiple restaurants, large meeting/wedding space, or on-site golf.
When Disney's BoardWalk Inn wins: choose BoardWalk Inn if you want to be within walking/short-transport distance of EPCOT and Hollywood Studios, enjoy Crescent Lake evening ambiance, and stay inside the Disney resort area.
Bottom line: both work well for Disney-area trips, but Omni is a destination resort for pools and golf while BoardWalk Inn is a convenient, on-property Disney option for park access and lakeside atmosphere.
