New Resort Will Offer Animated Flair

In late 2012, when you visit the Walt Disney World® Resort you will have a new resort option, offering rooms and suites that house up to six Guests each.

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort will feature quality family suites designed around four unique themes: The Lion King, Finding Nemo, Cars and The Little Mermaid. Located adjacent to Disney’s Pop Century Resort, the new resort will include 1,120 family suites and 864 themed rooms – for a total of nearly 2,000 new units. Suites will feature both a living room and a bedroom, offering added space for families.

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort will be the 26th hotel at the Walt Disney World Resort, and will offer themed building exteriors and room interiors, and larger-than-life icons from the animated films in the courtyard areas.

All of the themed suites and rooms at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort are expected to open by the end of 2012.
