Hi Cheri,
Thanks for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question! My family and I stayed at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort over the holidays, and absolutely loved it! It is a perfect resort for families who want a true Disney experience; where guests feel like they are part of some of Disney's most popular animated films!
The resort itself has four sections. The Little Mermaid Standard Rooms accommodate up to four guests. They offer two double beds and are designed to feel like guests are "Part of Her World". The Finding Nemo Family Suites, Cars Family Suites and Lion King Family Suites accommodate up to 6 guests and have three separate sleeping areas, as well as two bathrooms and a kitchenette.
The resort offers Landscape of Flavors - a quick serve dining location with five different food shops, that will please any palette. There is also shopping, laundry facilities, a playground, a jogging trail, Pixel Play Arcade and three pools. For all the resort has to offer, please see the link I have included above.
In terms of location, Disney's Art of Animation Resort is located in the ESPN Wide World of Sports Area, and is closest to Disney's Hollywood Studios. Not to worry, when staying on Disney Property, complimentary transportation is provided for all guests, so what ever park you choose to visit, any of the four Theme Parks are just a short bus ride away! This
map of Walt Disney World Resort will help you see where all of the Theme Parks are in relation to Disney's Art of Animation Resort.
I hope you have a magical time at Walt Disney World Cheri. If you have any other questions, please let me know, I would be happy to help you in any way I can.
Stephanie
