Hi there, Kayla!
Welcome to one of my very favorite corners of our
big blue world, planDisney! I'm so glad you stopped by with your question, because I am all about a dip in a Disney Resort hotel pool. Whether you're kicking off a leisurely day poolside, taking a midday break from the theme parks, or winding down from a particularly magical day, there's nothing quite like the theming of Walt Disney World Resort swimming pools, and those at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort are some of the best!
Currently,
Art of Animation's Cozy Cone Pool, Flippin' Fins Pool, and The Big Blue Pool are all open for Guests from 10 AM to 11 PM. Of course, it's important to keep in mind that operating hours are always subject to change, so you'll want to verify the hours by speaking with an Art of Animation Cast Member or checking the pool's signage during your stay.
Since you'll be calling Disney's Art of Animation Resort your magical home away from home, don't forget to take advantage of your direct access to the
Disney Skyliner that will allow you to channel your inner Tarzan and swing through the trees to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios. There can be a bit of a line for this fun and convenient mode of transportation in the mornings, but don't let that deter you, Kayla. Cast Members are incredibly efficient at loading and unloading Guests from the gondolas, so the line typically moves surprisingly quickly. And, if you happen to find yourself high in the sky at night, be sure to keep an eye out for fireworks. My husband and I were treated to a simultaneous display of
Happily Ever After and
Luminous The Symphony of Us as we traveled from Hollywood Studios to
Disney's BoardWalk during a recent visit. It was a truly magical experience that I'll remember fondly for years to come!
I hope this was helpful, Kayla, and that you're ready to dive into the magic of Walt Disney World Resort! If any additional questions arise between now and then, feel free to
stop back by planDisney. I'm always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
