Hi Alison,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us a question!
You can absolutely go visit
Disney’s Pop Century Resort, and even any other Walt Disney World Resort for that matter, in order to enjoy their dining locations, shops and general atmosphere. The only thing that you can’t do during your visits, however, is use another Resort’s pool. Pool hopping isn’t usually allowed, except in certain circumstances (such as when one Resort’s pool is being refurbished).
But, don’t worry! I think that the pools at
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort will absolutely delight your family! My 6 year old son often tells me that he think that the Big Blue Pool is his absolute favourite Disney pool, so I think you won’t even want to go anywhere else.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
