Deana,
Thanks for asking your question to planDisney!
You are going to love
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge! You really feel as if you have jetted off to an African savannah resort. It is not just about the animal viewing areas, either. The lobby is just soaked in atmosphere. From the cozy alcoves and lounges to the African art and artifacts, you really are transported to another place entirely.
The standard rooms at the Lodge do come with mini refrigerators. They are pretty big, enough to hold some sodas and leftovers from one of your amazing meals at
Jiko or
Sanaa. If you are looking to grab some milk, go for the 1/2 gallon bottle or smaller, not a full gallon. The rooms do not have microwaves.
BONUS TIP
While the rooms do not come equipped with microwaves as a standard feature, they do have a few that they can put in resort guest rooms, when requested. What you want to do is call the resort (407.938.3000) prior to your visit and make the request. They cannot promise to get you one in your room, since they only have so many to loan out, as you might imagine. We needed one on a recent trip, and we had no problem. They dropped it off in the room on our arrival day and installed it while we were out and about. So convenient!
Please feel free to
write me back directly if you have any follow-up questions.
Have a Magical Vacation!
Doug
