When staying offsite, you are forced to leave the Walt Disney World bubble, often experiencing views of backstage areas,  having to transport yourself to and from Disney\u2019s property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/01f8ca28ede3607faf38542652fb6a7f359556c371-1024x768-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Grand Floridian from afar \" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Offsite hotels typically lack Disney&#8217;s depth of theming as well. Disney World resort hotels feature immersive themes such as a Polynesian island, with leis handed out at check in and hotel buildings shaped like Polynesian longhouses. Being able to walk through the palm trees and beaches of the Polynesian resort while making your way to the volcano waterslide is the type of essential experience that makes a trip to Disney World so memorable! Better yet, you&#8217;ll find a wealth of other theming experiences on the Disney World resorts list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Complimentary Transportation to and from Disney Theme Parks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the aesthetics of a Walt Disney World resort, convenience is a huge factor when booking onsite. A Disney World resort hotel stay includes transportation of all kinds, starting right with your trip from the airport. Some of you may not know that the journey from Orlando International airport to Walt Disney World typically takes about 30 minutes. There are many shuttle services, as well as the option to use Uber, Lyft, or rent a car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Disney-Minnie-bus-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Bus decorated in a Minnie Mouse theme, part of the Disney World transportation system\" class=\"wp-image-7457\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1451px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Disney-Minnie-bus-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Disney-Minnie-bus-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Disney-Minnie-bus-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Disney-Minnie-bus.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Onsite Disney World resort hotels also offer complimentary park transportation to all 4 main theme parks, the 2 water parks, and Disney Springs. While some offsite hotels offer transportation, and there is always Uber and Lyft, Disney\u2019s transportation is the only one that can drop you off right at the entrance to the Magic Kingdom. &nbsp;All guests not arriving by Disney transport options, are required to be dropped off at the Transportation Ticket Center, and then take a monorail or boat to the park. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extended Hours <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another perk of selecting accommodations from the Disney World resort list is <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/disney-world-extended-hours\/\">extended evening and morning hours<\/a>. Each day, resort guests are admitted up to a half an hour early into any of the four major theme parks. While not as generous as its predecessor, Extra Magic Hours, <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-early-entry-disney-world-extra-magic-hours\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"6753\">Early Theme Park Entry<\/a> does allow you to get on a ride or two with less wait and fewer crowds. Guests of Disney deluxe resorts may also visit select theme parks for a <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/extended-evening-theme-park-hours\/\">few hours after closing<\/a>, providing lower crowds and less wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"795\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/resorts-list-boardwalk-1024x795.jpeg\" alt=\"red and pastel colored historic buildings line the boardwalk in front of a lake at Disney&#039;s Boardwalk Inn near EPCOT\" class=\"wp-image-24459\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/resorts-list-boardwalk-1024x795.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/resorts-list-boardwalk-300x233.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/resorts-list-boardwalk-768x596.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/resorts-list-boardwalk.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-understanding-disney-world-resorts-list-tiers\">Understanding Disney World Resort Tiers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When looking for Disney World resorts, Orlando offers many options from the ultra-cheap to the extravagant. You&#8217;ll find the same range when staying on Disney World Property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney resorts are offered in four tiers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Value resorts: At a value resort, you can expect elaborate theming, with clean and comfortable accomodations. These resorts offer some of the smallest rooms on Disney property, but who spends time in their room anyway? If this fits you, then you&#8217;ll enjoy a stay at a value resort. With plenty of dining options onsite and the lowest rack rates at Disney, it&#8217;s hard to beat. Value resorts sleep 4 people. Suites available at some locations my sleep up to 6 people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moderate resorts: The moderate resorts fall at the center of Disney&#8217;s pricing tier. Grounds are richly themed and expansive, providing ample opportunities for strolling, multiple pools to enjoy and readily available dining options. Rooms tend to be larger than those found at value resorts, but not as large as rooms at a deluxe resort. Value resort rooms sleep 4-5 people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deluxe resorts are at the top of the tier when it comes to staying at Disney. They offer larger rooms and a more upscale feel, but grounds are more compact. These resorts feature some of the best theming and can transport you to the tropics, an African savanna or even back in time to a bygone era. Disney deluxe resorts sleep 5 guests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disney deluxe villas: Disney villas are part of the Disney Vacation Club, a timeshare option that makes rooms available for rent. In most cases, these resorts share grounds, theming and ameniteis with one of Disney&#8217;s deluxe properties. The advantage to booking a villa is that many room types are offered, including 1 and 2-bedroom options.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we have discussed the resort tiers, stay tuned for a complete list of Disney World Resort hotels, as well as descriptions and detailed information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disney World Value Resorts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the lower end of the cost spectrum in the list of Disney World Resort hotels, Disney&#8217;s value resorts offer basic motel-style rooms at a fair price with an added perk. All are elevated through elaborate theming and magical experiences only realized at a Disney resort. Family suites are even available at select resorts, accommodating up to 6 guests in a room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Room Size: the smallest rooms, averaging 260 sq ft with standard room sleeping up to four guests plus a crib. Suite rooms sleep up to 6 (including a crib).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beds: standard rooms have either two queens or one king. Suites, called \u201cFamily Suites\u201d have a queen bed, a full-size sleeper sofa, a double pull out table bed. Other suites have a queen bed, full sleeper sofa, twin size sofa, and a twin sleeper ottoman.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bathrooms: one shower, one toilet, and one sink. The shower and toilet are in their own separate room.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Onsite Dining: food court and evening pizza room deliveries and bar by the pool.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pools: cartoony themed pools with no water slides, some water play elements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>D\u00e9cor: large cartoony elements or brightly colored theming on exteriors. Rooms are accessed via external doors, check in and main building contain no rooms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interior d\u00e9cor: minimal theming and basic accommodations, some themed after Disney characters<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Room views: Overlooking a parking lot, themed elements or swimming pool.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment Options: Playground, pools, poolside games, movie under the stars.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transportation options: Buses to all locations, or the skyliner from select resorts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-01553819 gb-headline-text\">Disney&#8217;s All Star Movies Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s All-Star Movies Resort is the first on our list of list of Disney World Resort hotels in the value resort category. All Star Movie&#8217;s puts you in the middle of some of your favorite animated Disney movies. With extra large size decorations of the 101 dalmatians or Andy\u2019s toys from Toy Story, you&#8217;ll feel like a star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accommodations at this tier of the Disney World resorts list boast a main Fantasia themed pool, a kiddie pool and a second slightly smaller Mighty Ducks themed Duck Pond pool. The grounds are expansive and rooms are clustered into buildings with different themes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fantasia:<\/strong> Right outside the main building you will find the Fantasia Cluster of rooms, with larger than life reprsentations of Disney&#8217;s classic Fantasia characters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>101 Dalmatian: <\/strong>To the right of the Fantasia building are the 101 Dalmatian themed rooms, adorned by Giant Pongo and Perdita statues and one puppy watching a large tv. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mighty Duck:<\/strong> Continue down the pathway past Pongo and Perdita, and you&#8217;ll run into the Mighty Duck themed rooms.

Even if you aren&#8217;t familiar with this self-driving auto, who can resist a racing Volkswagen beetle? You&#8217;ll find Herbie out front, ready to greet you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Views from All Star Movies Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Technically, rooms at this point on the Disney resort list offer two views: resort and water. You&#8217;ll find that in many cases, that means looking out over parking lots or roadways, with some rooms positioned to look out over the grounds.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining options at All Star Movies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining is located in the main building in the World Premiere Food Court.

This entry on the Disney World resorts list is in the same complex as the other two All-Star resorts, and within walking distance. Just as the other two resorts put you into the world of music and movies, this resort places you into the world of sports with the same large cartoon style d\u00e9cor and statues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The building layout is the same as the All-Star Movies Resort, just mirrored. The main building, named Stadium Hall contains the check in area, a gift shop, an arcade and the food court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The room building themes in this resort are: surfs up, the hoops hotel, center court, touchdown, and the homerun hotel. The Surfboard Bay pool is perfectly placed outside of the Surf\u2019s up buildings and right behind Stadium Hall. The pool area does have a kiddie area, but no water slide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"910\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT-1024x910.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24461\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT-1024x910.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT-768x682.jpg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT-1536x1365.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/all-star-sportsOPT.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Views from All Star Sports<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As with other Disney All Stars hotels, you&#8217;ll find that your room presents you with a nice opportunity to watch traffic on the nearby roadway or cars in the parking lot.

This Disney World Resort Hotel focuses on Cars, Finding Nemo, The Lion King, and The Little Mermaid. The d\u00e9cor features large and life-sized props and characters from the movies adorning the entrances and walkways outside the different buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main pool outside the Finding Nemo rooms is called The Big Blue Pool and also features a children\u2019s water play feature. The Big Blue Pool is the largest resort pool out of any resort on the whole property. The resort also features two more smaller quiet pools, one outside the cars themed rooms, and another outside the Little Mermaid Themed rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This resort is located in the World Wide of Sports area of Walt Disney World, which is not too far from Hollywood Studios. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Views from Disney Art of Animation Rooms<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Views from Disney&#8217;s Art of Animation feature lookouts onto parking areas, or for an upcharge, courtyards or pools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room Layouts at Art of Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s Art of Animation features two room types<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Standard rooms with 2 queen-sized beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Family suites, some themed to Disney movies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Family suites offer spacious accommodations that sleep up to 6. The rooms are configured to have a separate bedroom offering a queen sized bed, two bathrooms, a kitchenette and a living room. Other beds include a double table bed, and a double sleeper sofa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Little Mermaid building is the only building in this resort to hold standard rooms. These rooms consist of two double beds or one king size bed and one bathroom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining at Art of Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining options for this Disney World Resort hotel include a poolside bar, pizza delivery, and a food court called Landscape of Flavors. The food court has five different counter service restaurants with different themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel styles most suitable to Art of Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Given that most of the rooms at this resort are suites sleeping up to 6, this resort offers a great option for multi-generational parties or larger families. Given its price point, well below that of a deluxe resort, Art of Animation is also a solid option for families with 3 children. However, don&#8217;t expect the same budget prices as you&#8217;ll find at other value resorts, despite the fact that Art of Animation falls within that tier on the Disney resort list. This resort is also a good option for smaller families where children do not wish to share a bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s Art of Animation is also dog-friendly, allowing up to two dogs per room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at Disney Art of Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Large family suites offer ample room for large parties or groups wishing to spread out a little<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sketch art adorn the common spaces featuring Disney animation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rooms themed to popular Disney movies, including The LIttle mermaid, Cars, Lion King and Finding Nemo, delight younger travelers who are fans of the movies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vanity separate from tub and shower<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3 pools, all with lifeguards<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Splashpad and playground for younger children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jogging trail circling the Hourglass Lake<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at Disney Art of Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Large expansive resort may require walking to reach bus stops or dining<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No pool in the Lion King section<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No pool waterslide<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No table service dining<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More expensive than many guests expect for a value resort<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transportation to the parks<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides buses, Art of Animation boasts the option of riding on Disney World\u2019s new skyliner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pop\">Disney\u2019s Pop Century Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s Pop Century Resort is one of the most uniquely themed value resorts on the list of Disney World Resort hotels. Themed after varioussdecades from 1950-1990, there are two buildings representing each decade, with the exception of the 90\u2019s, which only has one building. The d\u00e9cor and props outside each building are large props representing the fads and trends of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The resort has one main pool located in the 60\u2019s, the hippy dippy pool, and a kiddie pool right beside it. Two quiet pools are also in the resort, located by the 50\u2019s and 80\u2019s buildings. The main building holds check in, an arcade, shopping and a food court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Views from Disney&#8217;s Pop Century<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As with all value resorts, you&#8217;ll find the least expensive accommodations peer out ove parking lots and roadways. If you&#8217;re willing to splurge on an upgrade, you can rest your peeper on the more pleasing site of pool or gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining options at  Disney Pop Century<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Far Out food court has 7 different food stations with popular options like pizza, waffles, flatbreads, salads and pasta. If you\u2019d rather eat in your room, pizza delivery is available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room layouts at Disney Pop Century<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Pop Century rooms have either one king bed, or one queen bed and a queen table bed. The room options are all based on location and views. Preferred rooms, or rooms that are the closest to the lobby, are most costly. Rooms with pool views also have higher rates than rooms with parking lot views. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel styles most suited to Pop Century<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As with most value resorts, guests who are minding their wallet will appreciate staying at Pop Century. While rates are slightly higher than those found at the All Stars Resorts, you do receive Skyliner transportation in exchange for the upcharge. Rooms are updated and modern but basic, welcoming guests who don&#8217;t plan to spend much time there but enjoy a clean and comfortable space to rest their head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of Disney Pop Century Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wallet-friendly pricing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skyliner transportation to Hollywood Studios and EPCOT<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Queen pull-down bed converts to a table during the day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zero entry kiddie pool with bubbling underwater currents<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pool bar serving adult beverages<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Playground for young children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lush grounds and walkways<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of Disney Pop Century Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Guests report long waits for buses during peak travel times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rooms are a tight squeeze for more than 2 adults<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grounds are large, so your room may be located at a distance from dining and other amenities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rooms do not have balconies or patios<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transportation to and from the parks<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Pop Century is located across the lake from Disney\u2019s Art of Animation.

The airy building exteriors paired with the tropical landscapes offer a relaxing and immersive place to stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-caribbean-beach-resort-review\/\">The Caribbean Beach Resort <\/a>has comfortable hammocks to enjoy the pristine sand beaches and brightly colored florals. The \u201cport of entry,\u201d Old Port Royale, features check in and Caribbean inspired shops and eateries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the Caribbean Beach resort would have a phenomenal pool and play area. A Spanish inspired fort surrounds the main zero-entry pool. The fortress contains water canons and two different waterslides. The longest waterslide drops you a whopping 82 feet right through the fort wall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main pool also has a hot tub and another pool with a large water feature pirate ship for kids under 48\u201d. The pirate ship water playground includes sprinklers, three smaller water slides, and a giant bucket which sporadically dumps water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining options at Caribbean Beach Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining options include two counter service restaurants, the Spyglass Grill and Centertown Market. Spyglass Grill has American food options with a Caribbean twist. The Centertown Market has all the typical food court options you would expect: salads, sandwiches, bakery items and more. Centertown Market also has a grab and go section with premade food items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Caribbean Beach Resort also offers 2 table service dining options that will satisfy all your cravings. Sabestian&#8217;s Bistro features a limited Caribbean-inspired menu served prix fixe style. You&#8217;ll choose from entrees like oven-roasted citrus checken or slow-cooked mojo pork and team it up with island sides like cilantro rice and beans or vegetable curry.  The restaurant\u2019s atmosphere is calm, inviting and inspired by the tropics with waterfront views. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banana Cabana offers tropical libations (thinking Pineapple Mule or seasonal margarita) on a walk up basis or in-restaurant dining featuring a menu strong on island flavors. You can also grab your daily cup of Java at a Joffrey&#8217;s kiosk located at the Main Skyliner station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room layouts at Caribbean Beach Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooms at Caribbean Beach are offered in multiple types and can be booked in two different view categories. With a standard view room, you could look out onto parking lots, courtyard or woodlands. There is no longer an option to pay more to recieve a non-parking lot view of your room, so if this is important, make sure you send a request to the property. There is no guarantee that requests will be honored, but in our experience, Disney does do everything they can to honor location requests when possible. Of course, you can always bump up in cost to a water or pool view room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within these view categories are 3 different room configurations, and these can be booked to assure you receive the room type you want. Rooms are available in the following configurations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 king bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 queen beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 queen beds and 1 child size pull down bed (5th sleeper room)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re booking a 5th sleeper room or one with 2 queen beds, you may also opt for a preferred room. By booking this room category, you will receive a room near Old Port Royal where check-in, restuarants, shops and the feature pool are located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prices for rooms vary based on configuration, theming and views. Rooms with the added children\u2019s pull down bed stir up a higher rack rate than a room with 2 queen beds. Other price variations are due to views and location to the lobby. Generally, rooms with better views and closer proximity to the lobby have higher nightly rates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transportation to the parks from Caribbean Beach<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Caribbean Beach is a Skyliner hub, meaning guests may travel to both Hollywood Studios and EPCOT directly from their resort. Travel time is about the same as taking a bus, but the views are much better. To reach Magic Kingdom or Animal Kingdom, buses run every 10 to 20 minutes and stop at 6 pick up points throughout the resort. Each of the 5 different &#8220;islands&#8221; will have their own bus stop, and buses entering the resort will stop at each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pools at Caribbean Beach Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fuentes del Morro pool at Caribbean Beach Resort is a kid&#8217;s paradise with spraying man-of-war cannons and not one, but 2 waterslides, one measuring 102 feet long. LIttler ones won&#8217;t be left out of the slipping and sliding fun either. The shipwreck play area offers mini slides, a crows nest and barrels of water that coninuously refill and tip to drench guests below. Poolside parties and activities are offered daily, conducted by Disney cast members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adults will enjoy the 12-person hot spa and ordering drinks from the nearby Banana Cabana pool bar. If you&#8217;re looking for a quieter atmosphere, head to one of 5 leisure pools. They&#8217;re located near each of the island areas, so no matter where you stay in this vast resort, you&#8217;ll have a pool nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel Styles Most Suited to Caribbean Beach Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Skyliner onsite and laid back island vibes creating a relaxing vacation atmosphere, it&#8217;s hard to go wrong with the Caribbean Beach resort, but this hotel is particularl well suited to: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Families of 5<\/strong> or less will enjoy the additional space to spread out over the value resorts. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wallet-conscious travelers<\/strong> will feel secure knowing they are getting some great perks without a tremendous added cost when compared to offsite or value resorts. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With connecting rooms available, Caribbean Beach resort is also a great option for <strong>multi-generational travel or families who want to spread out <\/strong>over 2 rooms to get extra space or beds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at Disney Caribbean Beach<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skyliner transportation to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sandy beaches with chairs and hammocks for relaxing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The zero entry Fuentes del Morro pool with 2 water slides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Connecting rooms available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5th sleeper rooms available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Laid back island atmospher abounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prime location, close to EPCOT and equidistant to Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close proximity to Riviera Resort offers additional dining options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Joffrey&#8217;s coffee kiosk located onsite at the Main Skyliner Station<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at Disney Caribbean Beach Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Some guests have experienced inconsistent cleanliness.

This Spanish, Mexican, and Southwest (American) inspired resort is the only Disney World moderate hotel to feature a convention center. The sprawling resort has a traditional hotel tower as well as sprawling walkways that lead to many building clusters featuring the resort rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The plethora of buildings all surround Lago Dorado (Durado Lake), which offers stunning views and gives the feeling of privacy from the other buildings. The building clusters follow three different themes. Besides the Gran Destino Tower, there are the Casitas, themed after colonial cities in Mexico, The Ranchos, which are inspired by the American Southwest, and The Cabanos, which are designed to give the feeling of being in a small Mexican coastal village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"846\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night-1024x846.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20334\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night-1024x846.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night-300x248.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night-768x634.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night-1536x1269.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-fountain-night.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Coronado Springs also boasts a large gym, for all your workout needs, and jogging paths that crisscross the expansive resort. The only downside to this resort is the amount of walking you will have to do to see it all. The pool is on the opposite side of the lake from the main lobby building, but many paths that cross the lakes will get you there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many consider the Coronado a deluxe resort at a value price. While rooms in the Casitas, Ranchos and Cabanas sections offer your standard motel style accommodations with some well appointed perks, rooms in the newer Gran Destino Tower are quite a step up and do provide some added perks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/coronado-gran-destino-lobby-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Gran Destino Tower Lobby with Christmas tree at Disney Coronado Springs Resort\" class=\"wp-image-20335\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Coronado Springs Resort lobby at Gran Destino Tower<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining options at Coronado Springs Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Placed perfectly inside the picturesque lake is the Bridges Bar and Grill. This table service lakeview eatery is all about shared plates, sandwiches and a new upscale take on traditional foods such as corndogs and fries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toledos- Tapas, Steak and Seafood has, well, tapas. The Spanish inspired menu offers a delicious, themed sit down experience. The food style is a little avant-garde, but don\u2019t let that scare you away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maya Grill, another table service dining option, serves traditional Mexican dishes with a modern take. The dining room is themed to ancient Mexico, and the atmosphere is perfect for enjoying a delicious plate of fajitas. The Maya Grill is only open for dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cafe Rix rounds out the table service dining options at Coronado, offering bar and grill food in an accompanying atmosphere. If you&#8217;re there on game day, expect a lot of hollaring and cheering from fans watching the games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Counter service and quick food options at Coronado Springs include El Mercado de Coronado, and four different bars and lounges. All counter service and quick dining options are Spanish or Mexican inspired with many traditional American dishes. A full room service menu is also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pools at the Coronado<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The feature pool at Disney&#8217;s Coronado Springs resides at the Dig Site. Themed to resemble Mayan ruins, this expansive complex features a 123-foot long slide through a 50-foot tall pyaramid and waterfalls. The Dig Site also holds the largest hot tub on Disney property, with room for 22 guests. For a quieter atmosphere, guests have the option to visit one of 3 leisure pools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room Layouts and Views<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooms at Coronado Springs vary greatly in layout, depending on where you stay. However, view categories are consistent across all locations and include water views of lake or pools and resort views. This latter can be anything from parking lot to courtyard or gardens, so make a request if the picture outside your window is important to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Room layouts at either the Casitas, Cabanas or Ranchos sections include one of the following options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 queen beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 king bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Casitas bedroom suite with two queen beds and one queen sleeper sofa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A king suite: one king bed and a separte living area with one queen sleeper sofa <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cisitas 1 bedroom suite: 2 queen beds and a separate living area with a queen sofa bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Casitas executive suite: 1 king bed in a bedroom with adjoining bathroom, 2 queen beds in separate room, 1 queen sleeper sofa in main living area, dining room<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooms in the Gran Destino Tower offer more luxurious finishing touches and an upscale vibe. Rooms are accessed via interior hallways for a true hotel feel and come in the following configurations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 queen beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 king bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tower One Bedroom Suite: 1 king bed and a sleeper sofa in separate living space<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tower Presidential Suite: 1 room with 2 queen beds, 1 room with 1 king bed, large separate living area <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, select rooms in the Gran Destino Tower are available as a club level booking. The Club level at Disney is an exclusive booking category, offering guests personal concierge and planning services as well as access to private lounge that serves food and beverages throughout the day. Club level rooms are available in the following configurations<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Deluxe suite: 1 king bed and 1 queen size sleeper sofa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tower standard view: 2 queen beds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Room prices depend on room size, room location, and room views. Obviously, bigger rooms cost more, as do better views, and better locations (closer to the lobby). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transportation to the parks from Coronado Springs Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s Coronado Springs is considered an Animal Kingdom area hotel. All transportation to and from the parks is via bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel styles most suited to Coronado Springs Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Guests looking for a bit of a luxury vibe who don&#8217;t want to pay the upscale price of some of Disney&#8217;s deluxe resorts will appreciate a room in the Gran Destino Tower. One bedroom suites are perfect for families who plan to spend some time in their room or at the hotel and want extra space. Grandparents traveling with children and grandchildren, who don&#8217;t expect to spend every day in the park will fit this bill well. Just be prepared for a more premium price tag to accompany the premium room size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since all rooms are spacious and offer simple touches such as a drink cooler, USB charging ports and Hey Disney, a service similar to Alexa, families will also enjoy a stay anywhere at the Coronado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of Staying at Coronado Springs Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beautifully themed grounds and ample walking areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiple dining options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opportunity to step up to more upscale rooms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wallet-friendly pricing available, particularly when discounts are offered<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gym onsite<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Elevators are available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of Staying at Disney Coronado Springs Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Resort size: Expansive grounds means you could have a long walk to restuarants and a wait for bus service during peak travel times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rooms do not have balconies or patios<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"You Won&#039;t Believe this Resort at Disney World: Coronado Springs   #disneyworldresort #disneyhotels\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WT2cmMLVyAQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cabins\">The Cabins at Disney&#8217;s Fort Wilderness Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cabins at Fort Wilderness &#8211; not to be confused with the Fort Wilderness Resort (read more about Fort Wilderness below.) &#8211; offer a private, family-friendly experience in the American frontier.

It&#8217;s exactly what the name suggests, but this wagon is a camper serving hot dogs and assorted snacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room layouts at the Cabins at Disney&#8217;s Fort Wilderness<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The information below is subject to change when renovations are complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooms at the Cabins at Fort Wilderness offer plenty of space for the whole family with room for 6. The rustic cabins are more like a hotel suite, with a living room, bedroom, bathroom, patio and full kitchen with fridge, dishwasher, microwave, and 2 stovetop burners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best things about the cabin is that housekeeping does your dishes for you. In addition to dishes being magically washed, dried and put away, your pantry also magically stocks itself. Before your arrival, simply select your pantry elements from a list of common items, and they will be there waiting upon your arrival. Pantry items do incur an additional fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Room configurations for the cabins are one queen bed, one set of bunk beds, and one double sleeper sofa. The separate bedroom houses both the queen bed and the bunk beds. The sleeper sofa can be found in the living room which is attached to the full kitchen.

Keep in mind, you&#8217;ll have none of the hand and foot waiting on that would typically accompany a royal experience, but you&#8217;ll have all of the atmosphere for pretending. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Families of 5 will also feel at home at Port Orleans Riverside thanks to the option to book a room with a third twin bed (5th sleeper room). This room configuration is equally as advantageous to families of 4 where children don&#8217;t want to share a bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Port Orleans Riverside does offer a number of connecting rooms, extended families traveling together may also enjoy this resort and the opportunity to open up space between accommodations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, Port Orleans is perfect for travelers who like to kick back and relax amidst the dripping moss and relaxing feel of the old south.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at Port Orleans Riverside<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beautifully themed grounds and ample walking areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiple dining options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Evening carriage rides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fishing on the lake<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at Port Orleans Riverside<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Only rooms in the Magnolia Bend section have elevators<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some reports indicate that food court options are limited and don&#8217;t change from day to day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The main bus stop at the front stop depot is typically crowded with a line at peak travel times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rooms do not have balconies or patios<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grounds are large, so your room may be located at a distance from dining and other amenities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"french\">Disney&#8217;s Port Orleans Resort &#8211; French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For more of the Lousiana feels on a compact scale, Port Orleans French Quarter may be more your style. Themed to historic New Orleans and Mardi Gras, you&#8217;ll find old French style buildings dripping with southern charm. Iron balconies and magnolia lined streets really bring the atmosphere of old New Orleans to life. This is one of the Disney World resorts on the moderate scale, so the lobby is large  &#8211; like being in the middle of New Orleans with bright colors, cobblestone streets, and gas lamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Riverside is sprawling with organically laid out pathways, French quarter is condensed with walkways laid out mathematically like a real town. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining at Port Orleans French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining includes the Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory, a table service restaurant themed to Mardi Gras. Sassagoula Floatworks serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, bakery items, and drinks. Also located in Port Orleans French Quarter are two bars and pizza delivery right to your room. For more dining, you can also take the short walk over to Port Orleans Riverside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pools and Recreation at Port Orleans French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mardi Gras pool features King Neptune with a giant sea serpent that doubles as the pool\u2019s water slide. A hot tub near the pool offers a place to relax for the guests who aren\u2019t into slip sliding. For the youngest guests, there is a kiddie water feature. For additional entertainment, horse drawn carriages can be taken every evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room Configurations and Views at Port Orleans French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"430\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/French-Quarter-Room-1-768x430-1.png\" alt=\"Interior shot of Disney World Port Orleans French Quarter room with 2 queen beds with white cover.\" class=\"wp-image-24471\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/French-Quarter-Room-1-768x430-1.png 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/French-Quarter-Room-1-768x430-1-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"h-room-configurations-for-this-disney-world-resort-hotel-are-either-2-queen-beds-or-one-king-bed-room-rates-depend-on-the-view-from-your-room-for-room-rates-and-more-information-click-here\">Rooms at French Quarter offer river, garden or pool views.

However, since French quarter rooms will accommodate only 4 people, their appeal is limted to small families or adults traveling without children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at Port Orleans French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beautifully themed grounds and ample walking areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close proximity to Riverside offers additional dining options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Boat transportation to Disney Springs offers a beautiful and peaceful ride<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at Port Orleans French Quarter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rooms last refurbished in 2018 may feel dated<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No patios or balconies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Disney&#039;s Port Orleans Resorts | Walt Disney World\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ltRUt8XkKmU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"deluxe\">Disney Deluxe Resorts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/disney-deluxe-resort-guide\/\">Disney deluxe resorts<\/a> have spacious rooms and elegant accommodations.

The Animal Kingdom Lodge has all that and more. This African inspired hotel on the Disney resort list is decorated to the smallest detail, and over 200 hundred animals call the savannas home. It\u2019s proximity to Animal Kingdom means animals are regularly rotated between the park and the resort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to Disney World resorts, Animal Kingdom area hotels are some of the most immersive. The resort is U-shaped to give as many rooms as possible views of one of the 4 savannas. The animals brought into each savanna vary greatly, and often rotate. During a stay at the lodge, you can expect to see at least giraffes, zebras, African birds, antelope, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gift shops feature handmade figurines and gifts made in Africa, or by African artists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dining at Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The dining in Animal Kingdom is award winning and a must try. Boma- Flavors of Africa is a buffet table service restaurant with an African marketplace theme. The food options are expansive and based on African dishes. Even picky eaters will find more than enough to eat here, and this remains one of our favorite restaurants on Disney property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Other dining in this Disney World resort hotel include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Jiko- The Cooking Place- a table service restaurant with dishes and wines from the heart of Africa, Jiko does have a dress code.

Expect roof tops and parking lots with a standard room, because all of the better views are reserved for the other two categories. Water view rooms primarily face the pool, which is quite pleasant given the rich level of detail going on in this section of the resort. However, your best view will be had from a room facing the savanna. You&#8217;ll watch animals right out side your room, both night and day. In our opinion, this opportunity is the main reason to book this resort. Rooms are average, featuring carved African inspired headboards and long curtains with African-inspired prints, but you&#8217;ll hardly notice the interior when the savanna beckons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Club level rooms are also available at Animal Kingdom Lodge but availability is limited. Club level offers guests an upgraded level of service, with personal concierge to help you with planning and a private lounge offering food and beverages throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Room configurations at Animal Kingdo Lodge include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 queen beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 king bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 queen bed and one bunk bed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 bedroom suite- 2 queen beds and one queen sleeper sofa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 bedroom suite- 1 king bed, 2 queen beds, and one queen sleeper sofa<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Room prices vary based on views and size. Obviously, larges rooms bring in a higher price, and rooms with savannah views cost more than those without. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the ultra-immersive theming, Animal Kingdom Lodge was originally designed to provide a lower cost deluxe hotel option on the Disney World resorts list. As such, rooms are not on the same level in some ways as other deluxe resorts on Disney property. Cinder block walls offer a value feel, which is likely realized more keenly in a standard view room. Let&#8217;s face it, when you can look out your balcony and see giraffes, you&#8217;re probably not noticing much else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transportation to the parks from Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Transportation to all parks is provided by bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel styles most suited to Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Animal Kingdom Lodge is an excellent resort for solo travelers, particularly animal lovers, as there are many solitary nooks and crannies to settle in, read a good book or watch the animals on savanna. However, due to the ultra-immersive theming and ready animal viewing opportunities, Animal Kingdom Lodge is the perfect vacation resort for families. Just keep in mind that rooms sleep a maximum of 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary bus transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beautifully themed grounds and ample walking areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close proximity to Animal Kingdom park<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Elaborate and immersive theming<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tremendous dining opportunities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>All rooms have balconies, some overlooking the animals on savanna<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Far distance from Magic Kingdom and EPCOT<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quick service dining and grab and go options are limited<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"BC\">Disney&#8217;s Beach Club Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e-1024x767.jpeg\" alt=\"outside entrance to Disney&#039;s Beach Club resort\" class=\"wp-image-18078\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e-1024x767.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e-1536x1151.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/cec67032773145509c9e06e097884d9e.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney\u2019s Beach club is an EPCOT area hotel on our list of Disney World Resort hotels, themed after the elegant establishments of the New England beach towns from the turn of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century.

Here you won&#8217;t find Disney princess rooms or nods to historical trends, but you will find elegance and amazing views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Contemporary Resort may not be the most Disney themed resort, but it does bring all the Disney experience and attention to detail. With its A frame shape, and monorail breezing right through it, the Contemporary is architecturally interesting and exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pools at Contemporary Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The pool area is large with a big waterslide and views of Bay lake.

While the food is upscale and delicious, be prepared to pay a premium. A dress code is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other dining options are Chef Mickey\u2019s, a character dining buffet experience, and the Contemporary Grounds, a quick service grab and go restaurant.

First off, you can always take a bus to the Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, or Disney Springs. To get to Magic Kingdom, you can simply hop on the monorail, or walk across the street right up to the entrance. An additional way to get to EPCOT is to <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/disney-world-transportation\/\">ride the Disney monorail<\/a> to the transportation and Ticket Center and then switch monorails to the EPCOT line. Boats also run to Magic Kingdom on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel styles most suited to Disney Contemporary Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As the first Disney resort, the Contemporary has strong appeal to Disney enthusiasts, providing an opportunity to commune with history. Families with young children will appreciate the larger rooms and access to the monorail, making it easy to reach the Magic Kingdom. Larger families or those wishing to spread out a little will also appreciate the fact that some rooms offer 2 queen beds and a daybed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of staying at the Contemporary Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disney World complimentary transporation to and from parks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early theme park entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charge food and merchandise to your room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Door locks are MagicBand compatible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free self parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Monorail runs right through the resort, providing easy access to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balconies or patios available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Character dining onsite<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Magic Kingdom is an easy 5 minute walk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of staying at the Contemporary Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pool area is lackluster compared to other deluxe resorts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nightly rates are higher than some deluxe resorts, such as those found in the EPCOT area<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guests must use an elevator to access the monorail platform<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"GF\">Disney&#8217;s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24467\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1450px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grand-floridian-exterior.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The most prestigious and sought-after hotel on the Disney resort list is the Grand Floridian.

The grandiose, wood-adorned eight story lobby is made from wood imported from <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/oregon-vacation-travel-guide\/\">Oregon.<\/a> Endless wood floors lead your eye directly to the largest fire place you will ever see. A creek runs through a portion of the lobby and leads outside to tumble over large rocks surrounded by pine trees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While staying at Wilderness Lodge, be sure to catch Fire Rock Geyser, the resort\u2019s answer to Yellowstone\u2019s Old Faithful. Mimicking Old Faithful\u2019s former punctuality, the geyser erupts on the hour, shooting water over one hundred feet into the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pools and recreation at Wilderness Lodge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Copper Creek cascades into Copper Creek Springs, the main pool with an 87-foot rock waterslide.

Larger families will enjoy the amply-sized rooms with extra bedding space, as well smaller families with children hoping to avoid sharing a bed. Sun seekers will enjoy spending a day or 2 poolside, with plenty of activities to keep them busy at Stormalong bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" id=\"villas\" style=\"color:#7ab6ba\">Disney Deluxe Villas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Deluxe Villas are actually part of Disney\u2019s Vacation Club (DVC) and reserved for owners.

Separate larger villas are located in separate yet private buildings. To match the Polynesian theme, the bungalows even sit on the water of Bay Lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part and parcel of the Polynesian Village resort, the DVC villas share dining, transportation, shopping and pools with the main resort.

For heartier counter service meals, try Primo Piatto, an upscale yet casual take on traditional favorites such as sandwiches, salads and desserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"saratoga&quot;\">Disney&#8217;s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa and Treehouse Villas<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"741\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/83c1eff8c9b649168d9b4bffb5d73def-1024x741.jpeg\" alt=\"A bus arrives to transport guests to Disney Parks from Saratoga Springs, a DVC hotel on the Disney World resorts list\" class=\"wp-image-8228\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:1451px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/83c1eff8c9b649168d9b4bffb5d73def-1024x741.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/83c1eff8c9b649168d9b4bffb5d73def-300x217.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/83c1eff8c9b649168d9b4bffb5d73def-768x556.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/83c1eff8c9b649168d9b4bffb5d73def.jpeg 1533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Themed to the 1800\u2019s era resort and horse racing town in New York, <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-saratoga-springs-review\/\">Saratoga Springs resort and Spa<\/a> is the only entry on the list of Disney World Resort hotels to feature its own golf course. Other amenities include a spa, several pools, a quiet atmosphere and several dining options. Just a short boat ride away is all the fun and fanfare of Disney Springs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For additional fun in Saratoga Springs, book a spa day for massages, facials, body treatments, nails, or combination packages. For less low-key recreation, take a dip in one of the two main pools, each with their own waterslide and whirlpool spas. Three additional quiet pools are also located in this Disney World resort hotel, all with their own whirlpool spas. If you\u2019re feeling waterlogged, try your hand at a round of golf on the <a href=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/en_CA\/recreation\/lake-buena-vista-golf-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">onsite golf course.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining in Disney\u2019s Saratoga Springs Resort includes The Turf Club Bar and Grill. This grill is set in the racetrack clubhouse with both water and golf course views. American favorites are served here with large portions and specialties such as prime rib and grilled pork loin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The grab-and-go Artist\u2019s Palette serves sandwiches, salads and pizza as well as breakfast. The poolside Paddock Grill has juicy burgers, sandwiches and salads served counter service style. Chip &#8216;n&#8217; Dale&#8217;s Caf\u00e9 is a perfect place to stop after a long day of golfing. Located next to the course, the caf\u00e9 is a delectable sandwich shop. In addition, there are three bar\/ lounges that serve quick bites and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooms in Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa come in studios as well as one, two and three bedroom suites. In addition to the villas, Saratoga Springs has an attached Treehouse Villas section. The treehouses are individual buildings situated up in the canopy that offer a private, comfortable setting for your whole family. This section of the resort even has its own quiet pool.

However, finding Disney World resorts on the cheap may seem like an exercise in futility given current Disney World resort prices. For certain, when looking for affordability in Disney World resorts, All Stars properties offer some of the best value. But what if you could reduce your nightly rate even further or even upgrade to a larger resort room with little cost difference overregular  nightly rack rates? You can, if you take advantage of Disney World resort deals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disney World resort hotel deals make it possible to <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/budgeting-for-disney-world-planning-a-trip-to-disney-world-on-a-budget\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"12226\">shave money off your Disney World budget<\/a> by booking your onsite resort using a resort or package discount. These are available for booking through Disney World&#8217;s website, and we keep a running list of all available offers on our <a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/disney-world-discounts-2021\/\">Disney World discounts page<\/a>. Be sure to bookmark it and check it out for any available discounts before booking your vacation. Discounts are usually offered a few months before a window of travel dates to get rid of excess rooms, so you won&#8217;t be able to make your travel plans a year out using a discount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can, however, reserve your room from the Disney World resorts list, and if a discount is offered, call Disney and ask them to apply it to your existing reservation. If there is availability at your resort using the current offer, Disney will gladly do this for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-posts-you-may-enjoy\">Other Posts You May Enjoy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-living-the-safari-dream-an-animal-kingdom-lodge-resort-review\"><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-animal-kingdom-lodge-resort-review\/\">Living the Safari Dream: An Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort Review<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AK-lodge-review-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13952\" style=\"width:387px;height:auto\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AK-lodge-review-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AK-lodge-review-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AK-lodge-review-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AK-lodge-review.png 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-walt-disney-world-caribbean-beach-resort-review-visit-or-pass\"><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-caribbean-beach-resort-review\/\">Walt Disney World Caribbean Beach Resort Review: Visit or Pass?<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-caribbean-beach-resort-review\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Caribbean-Beach-683x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18350\" style=\"width:387px;height:auto\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-walt-disney-world-grand-floridian-resort-review-magic-and-elegance-combine\"><a href=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/walt-disney-world-grand-floridian-resort-review\/\">Walt Disney World Grand Floridian Resort Review \u2013Magic and Elegance Combine<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Disney-World-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Review-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12200\" style=\"width:384px;height:auto\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Disney-World-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Review-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Disney-World-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Review-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Disney-World-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Review-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/secondstogo.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Disney-World-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Review.png 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which Disney World Resort Hotel Is Right for You &#8211; a Comprehensive Disney World Resort List When it comes to Disney World Resort hotels, there are many options, resulting in a lengthy list of on property hotels.
