The property was great. We could of stayed there the whole day my kid was so content with it. I wish the beds were more comfortable. They aren't bad, just aren't great either and after everything we did a nicer bed would of been the perfect place to come back too! Would stay again though
Everything was just perfect! Staff was so nice and friendly and made our trip extra magical with birthday gifts for my daughter! Will be booking again next year!
This was the trip of a lifetime--not only because we visited the Disney World theme parks, but when we got back to the hotel, the pool was open until 11PM and there were always activities for the kids to do throughout the day. We had "pool parties" with music and pool games, we enjoyed a movie "under the stars," and more! There are three pools and my kids wanted to swim in all of them. Our favorite is the "Nemo pool" because of the bar and snacks. Disney's Sky-liner is on the property. The Sky-liner takes you to Epcot or Hollywood Studios. Buses are readily available for Disney Springs, Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom. I highly recommend this resort ! 5/5
This was my first time at Arts & Animation and I will definetly be coming back! I love the design and decor. I love how clean it was and how it was so easy to get around and transportation available to the theme parks.
There is things for all ages and is convenient to all Disney parks. We stayed in Lion king suite and loved it!

The finding Nemo suite was conveniently located next to the skyline, which made traveling between resorts and theme parks easier. Great hotel if you have a toddler like I do.
I love Walt Disney world I’ve visited 3 times in my lifetime and always stayed at a value resort. This time I stayed at Disney Animation and we had a room in little mermaid building I did not like that we had to walk so very far to get to the main building where the food court, the front desk, the arcade and shopping and they offer no kind of shuttle service the walk from our room to the main building was 30 minutes. Disney can do better
The room was very clean and highly themed. Staff at check in was helpful and efficient. I needed extra towels and a fan nd it was quickly brought on Christmas Day.
For being the happiest place on earth a lot of the workers are not as friendly especially in the food court . We notified them about our broken door lock they came to fix but we also asked about the tub water being like warm and they never came to fix it . Very small and outdated .
