Hi Coleman! Welcome to planDisney!
Only a couple more days until you arrive at the
Walt Disney World Resort to start your magical Disney getaway! Being a
Florida resident, you are just a hop, skip, and jump away from the fun! Checking out Disney Resorts Hotels when visiting is one of my family's favorite things to do during our stay. Each one is completely different from the next, with various food offerings from all around.
Disney's Art of Animation Resort has a wonderful selection of food options at
Landscape of Flavors. You'll find a variety of different cuisines that is sure to please the entire family. Without a resort reservation though, you are not guaranteed to be able to park at the resort. I do suggest checking with the security guard at the front gate upon arrival and letting them know you plan to eat here. You can also place a mobile food order at Landscape of Flavors on your
My Disney Experience App to show as proof of your intention to eat here.
If you are staying at another Disney Resorts Hotel along the
Disney Skyliner path, you can take the Skyliner to Disney's Art of Animation Resort at any time it is running. You can also take a bus to Disney's Hollywood Studios and hop on the Skyliner there to get to Art of Animation. If you are staying offsite, you can pay to park at Disney's Hollywood Studios before taking the Skyliner to the resort.
Coleman, you will definitely have some options to get to your final destination. If you are driving, I would attempt to park directly at the resort, since this will be your quickest option. Otherwise, navigating your way with
Disney Transportation will be a fun experience!
See ya real soon!
