In today's video we take a look around Disney's Art of Animation Resort. We show you all of the themeing and decorations throughout the resort that make it one of the best themed resorts at Walt Disney World. We take a look at the main lobby which is decorated with all of the different phases of the animation process. We also got to see the quick service restaurant, Landscape of Flavors, where we tried one of the hamburgers, it was delicious. We also showed off each section of the resort and all 3 of its pools. It is a fantastic resort and probably our favorite value resort we have visited. Stay tuned tomorrow for a new video.

The Little Mermaid area is TECHNICALLY older than the rest of AoA. The Legendary Years were supposed to be more or less identical to the buildings across the lake and what are now the Little Mermaid rooms were further along when they stopped construction. When construction restarted, they kept the outside facing rooms in the Little Mermaid area as is, but the rest of the building were early enough in construction that they could do whatever they wanted with the layouts. As such, the Nemo section, Lion King Section, and Cars sections all have family suites (two bathrooms, kitchenette, Murphy bed, master bedroom, pull out couch). Nice spacious rooms for up to 6 adults each. Ultimately, all four sections opened at the same time.

I went this past Spring for my spring break. I loved it there, stayed in the Nemo suite. It comfortably fit my family of five (my 2 parents, my self and 2 sisters), with one of my sisters and I being college age, and the youngest being 13. it was a great hotel even though we seemed a little older for it. The rooms had the best theming I have ever seen. The food was fantastic in Landscape of Flavor, we pretty much ate their each night after going to the parks, and there was always something else we wanted to try. I would go back for the Surf and Surf burger alone! This video made me want to go back again so badly.

I love Art Of Animation resort. There is an easteregg to Philmor's license plate.....its George Carlin's birth date. Also the lobby and Little Mermaid areas were original before 2001. That's why they are rooms and not suites like the other sections.

If I’m correct the reason for the change from the legendary years to art of animation was because the art of animation restraints on the Disney wounder and magic cruise ships got such great feed back that they decided to turn it into a resort.

@abbyginge03 5 жыл бұрын

Actually, its because the construction was halted after 9/11 and the legendary years's few buildings were abandoned for 10 years and at that point they were like eh, lets make it disney themed 😂 Just watch Bright Sun Films's video on the legendary years

@mustangluly 6 жыл бұрын

Fun Fact if you didn't know the Little Mermaid area is different because it was one of the buildings that was abandoned from the legendary years from Pop. When they started building it. They had some building done already so they kept them making them their "standard rooms" rather than redo them they recycled. The other ones are newer.

You say that you're not very good at impressions, but I think that if you tweaked your voice just a little, you could probably pull off pretty good Jim Henson or Kermit the Frog impressions. I've closed my eyes a couple of times while watching these videos (... .which sort of defeats the purpose of 'watching,' I know...) and occasionally hear Kermit coming out through your voice. :)

A group of us went to Disney World this past February and we stayed in one of the Cars Family suites. If you liked the theming outside, you'll love it inside of the rooms. The lamps are all traffic cones, the dressers are tool boxes, the countertops are work benches, and the 2 bathrooms are carwashes. There's a full bedrooms that's kind of themed as an old motel. The living room couch looks like the backseat of a car that folds out to a bed and the kitchen table is themed as a huge map of Route 66 that turns into a Murphy bed. The food at Landscapes of Flavors is really good. We had 3 meals there during our stay. I had the "make your own pasta" the first day we were there for lunch and it was amazing (I had Bowtie Pasta with Pesto, Shrimp, Peas, Spinach, and Jalapenos). I had the Surf and Surf Burger for the next meal there; a crab cake sandwich topped with fried shrimp, lettuce, tomato, and a spicy tartar sauce. And the morning that we checked out, I had the Brunch Burger; a bacon cheeseburger with a fried egg and hashbrowns. I highly recommend all of these meals. The Drop Off pool bar had a couple of great signature cocktails as well, the Apple Mule and the Blackberry Lemonades were fantastic. I have stayed on property many times between Caribbean Beach, All Star Movies, and All Star Music and can honestly say that Art of Animation was my favorite resort so far.

You’re right Tim!! The reason the little mermaid section has so much more theming on the outside is because that section is all regular hotel rooms.

The big blue pool has another super cool feature that you’d only know if you swam in it! It has underwater speakers and plays music underwater while you’re swimming!!!

Pool was super cold when we went but I love the music underwater. We stayed at the Little Mermaid building and it was your typical Disney Value Resort Room. They did a good job of covering the fact that those buildings were the original ones and had been left unfinished for such a long time.
