    Can we visit the Art of Animation in florida without a room reservation?

    Welcome to planDisney, Fermin! It sounds like you want to visit one of my favorite Disney World hotels! In this fan’s opinion, Disney’s Art of Animation Resort is the “Disney-est” of the Disney World hotels! The larger-than-life character statues located throughout the resort bring Disney animation to a new level of magic for Guests to enjoy!

    Yes, Guests are welcome to take a self-guided tour of Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. Guests are also welcome to enjoy dining and shopping at the resort as well.  Fermin, be sure to bring your camera along as you will find great photo opportunities located throughout the resort! My favorite photo spot is the huge statue of Simba, Timon, and Pumbaa strutting across the log. Try to stand there and not sing "Hakuna Matata!"

    Add to the excitement of your visit to Disney’s Art of Animation Resort by traveling to and from the resort aboard the Disney Skyliner! You’ll feel like you're gliding through the sky on a magic carpet ride using this complimentary Disney transportation! The Disney Skyliner is my preferred mode of transportation when staying at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort! It will quickly and conveniently carry you to and from Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT!

    Dreams do come true!
