Hola Libi!
Thanks for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It sounds like you have assembled a fun travel party for your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort vacation. You are all going to have a blast!
The
family suites at Disney's Art of Animation Resort can only accommodate a party of six unless the seventh guest is an infant. However, that doesn't mean your group cannot select this resort for your upcoming vacation. Instead, you could request two adjoining standards rooms in the Little Mermaid section of the resort. I have stayed in these rooms and they are adorable! The theming is absolutely incredible.
One of my other favorite Disney value hotels is
Disney's Pop Century Resort. It is right across the Generation Gap Bridge from Disney's Art of Animation Resort. I regularly walk back and forth between these two resorts when I am staying as a guest at one of them. I stayed in connecting rooms at Disney's Pop Century with friends of mine last month and the newly renovated rooms at this resort are gorgeous. The big fluffy queen beds give guests plenty of space to spread out as they sleep and the pricing on these rooms is incredibly reasonable. Two guest rooms at this resort would accommodate your group nicely.
Let my friends and I here at the Disney Parks Moms Panel know if you'd like additional suggestions. We'd be delighted to help!
Sending best wishes and pixie dust,
Jill
