    Hi, we have our first visit with kids (18 months + 4 years) in May, staying in a 1 bed villa in AKL Jambo. Do the pack and plays come with a mattress? If not, are dimensions available so I can order one? Also, are toppers available for sofa beds? Thanks!

    Jambo, Claire, welcome to planDisney!

    Thank you for bringing this question to the panel today, I hope I can help you have a wonderfully wild stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge. I know a little extra pixie planning goes into a trip with little kiddos, but Hakuna Matata, as I’m here to offer some tips! 

    It won’t be long until you’re dreaming the night away in your 1-bedroom villa at your resort, so let’s dive straight into your questions and help you and your littles get a long, restful night’s sleep after an exciting day at the parks.

    I’m happy to share that complimentary cribs and playpens are available for Guests at all Disney Resort Hotels, along with the mattresses and linens, subject to availabIlity. Your kiddos will be nice and cosy as they snuggle into slumber and drift into dreamland. For Guests who’d like a little extra comfort on the sleeper sofa, mattress toppers are also available on request and distributed on a first-come-first-serve basis. 

    I recommend requesting these items either before your arrival by calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations or at the Front Desk when you check in. Disney World goes to infinity and beyond to ensure specific requests are met, but these items are subject to availability. I'm wishing upon a star, Claire, that your requested items are available for your stay!

    Top Tip: Animal Kingdom Lodge is home to one of my favourite restaurants at Disney World, Boma - Flavors of Africa! Both the breakfast and dinner buffets are delicious, and there is something for everyone on the menu. The Bread Pudding for breakfast is delicious, accompanied by the Zebra Dome Cold Brew!

    If you have any more questions, Claire, stop by and see me anytime at planDisney.

    Sending faith, trust, and pixie dust,

    Abi
