Hello Trista! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Disney's Art of Animation Resort was the first Walt Disney World Resort that I stayed at with my children. We started our vacation in one of The Little Mermaid Standard Rooms, but my son was sleeping in a crib at the time (which Art of Animation will provide) and it made for a rather cramped living situation. We decided to switch to one of The Lion King Family Suites and were glad that we did. Not only did we have more mobility within our room, but everyone got their own sleeping space, which made for much happier campers in the morning.
Disney's Art of Animation Resort has Standard Rooms and Suites designed to accommodate the maximum occupancy for the space provided. The Little Mermaid Standard Room sleeps a maximum of 4 Adults and The Lion King, Cars and Finding Nemo Family Suites sleep a maximum of 6 Adults.
Cots or roll-away beds are not typically offered due to the fact that the addition of an extra sleeping space would exceed the maximum occupancy of the room.
For accommodations that
require sleeping arrangements of groups larger than 5 Adults, Walt Disney World Resort offers various options for an
Endlessly Magical stay for Groups of 5 Guests or more. One option they do not list however, is that reserving 2 Standard Rooms at the same resort accommodates up to 8 Guests and is sometimes more affordable option than the Deluxe Villas.
Wherever you rest your head, I hope you have a magical vacation!
