Welcome to planDisney, Claire! I'm so excited to hear that your magical Walt Disney World journey may begin at the end of April, especially with the
enchanting offers available at this time to U.K. residents, including free nights staying at select Disney Resort hotels.
Disney's larger-than-life
Art of Animation Resort is a family favourite. You will be truly immersed in the magic of Disney animation and storytelling. It's a hugely popular Disney Resort hotel because of its theming and excellent proximity to the Theme Parks (including
Disney Skyliner access), so some rooms book up early. You could always speak with one of the
Disney Experts, who may be able to accommodate your specific room needs with dates available. I have just conducted my own search online for Disney's Art of Animation Resort and found that Suites were available.
These suites can sleep up to 6 adults, with 1 Queen Bed and 1 Double-Size Sleeper Sofa, and 1 Double-Size Table Bed. So, depending on your sleeping arrangements, you could still lounge on the sofa while the kids use the Table Bed. We found these larger rooms invaluable on our Disney adventures with kids - having a table and eating space was great in the mornings. Disney's Art of Animation has the largest pool at Walt Disney World - a big hit with the young and the young at heart. Please be sure to check out the recreation schedule with Guest Services, as we have enjoyed some wonderful Cast-Member-led activities.
Claire, I hope you get to book the perfect setup for you and your family and that you can take advantage of some of the deals available. I'm wishing you blue skies and sunshine, Louise.
