Hi Barbara!
I can appreciate your budget, and I think you've made an excellent choice with Disney's All-Star Movies! It's a great resort, with that wonderful Disney feel, with all the convenience of staying on Disney property!
You could absolutely visit
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge to check out some of the wildlife found at Disney's Animal Kingdom. In fact, our family frequently dines at
Boma- Flavors of Africa just so we can check out the resort and the animals. It is a great place to explore and animal watch, and just relax in general. I'd highly suggest it!
The Mara is a Quick Service dining option that's available as well, and I think would be a budget-friendly option if you choose to dine while visiting.
You'll be able to access Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge easily by hopping on a bus marked
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge at an of the theme parks.
Have a magical vacation!
Amanda
