Walt Disney World is now taking reservations for the opening of the Disney’s Art of Animation Resort in May.
The three-story resort has 1,120 suites inspired by the movies “Cars,” “Finding Nemo” and “The Liong King” and 864 rooms inspired by “The Little Mermaid.” The family suites are opening in May and the standard rooms are scheduled to open in December.
The latest hotel has three swimming pools and four courtyards.
According to Disney, in the Cars wing, a freshly paved road leads to the Cozy Cone Motel, complete with a Cozy Cone pool and cone-shaped cabanas. The Lion King wing has an elephant graveyard play area. In the Little Mermaid courtyard, treasures from the human world (knick-knacks and whatnots galore, no doubt) fill Ariel’s undersea grotto.
The resort is adjacent to Disney’s Pop Century Resort. The family suites include two bathrooms, a kitchenette and three separate sleeping areas that can sleep up to six; rates start at $248/night. Standard rooms, which start at $94/night, sleep up to four.
Can't wait to see what this is like on the inside. It's only place I didn't get a tour of on my last visit. Probably because it was still being built 😛
Me too. This could be a lot of fun.
