    Hi! Getting excited for my upcoming trip! I am staying at AKL for the first time. Are there any rooms with the standard view that have bunk beds? Anything else you can tell me about AKL would be great too!! Thank you so much!!

    Hello Tracy!

    Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Although it may sound crazy, I’m SUPER excited for your trip to my absolute favourite Walt Disney World Resort Hotel, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge! What I love most is the unbelievably warm and welcoming atmosphere that surrounds you the moment you walk through its doors - it really feels like an entirely different world. 

    My family likes to go “home” to the Lodge for a bit of a respite from the hustle and bustle of the parks in the middle of the day. Because of this, we usually splurge on a Savanna View room. While my son naps, I sit our balcony with a cold drink and a book and just enjoy my personal moment of Zen! When we’ve stayed in a Standard View room, I would take my book and head over to one of the rocking chairs at the Arusha Rock Fire Pit.  

    Words can’t fully describe how delicious all of the dining options are at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.  Our problem is usually that we run out of days to be able to enjoy them all! Boma - Flavors of Africa probably serves my favourite breakfast at the Walt Disney World Resort (don’t forget to try the Jungle Juice!) and Sanaa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge - Kidani Village has some truly fresh and creative options to choose from… especially the naan bread! 

    Unfortunately, from what I understand, bunk bed rooms are only available for Pool View, Savanna View or Arusha View rooms. That being said, please ask the front desk whether a bunk bed Standard View room is available when you’re checking in. They’ll be able to give you a definitive answer in that regard. 

    Have a Magical Trip!
