Unbelievable resort! Rooms are arranged right within the animal areas and the attention to detail with regards to the overall theme is just amazing. Super clean and comfy, large bathrooms, top notch food at the pubs and lucky to have been there during the holidays to enjoy the tree and decorations. Disney staff is the most helpful and pleasant. Get the burger at Victoria Falls, it's the best burger ever!

Disney World has truly outdone itself with the Animal Kingdom Lodge! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Disney has elevated their game in terms of class, professionalism, and overall atmosphere.
The lodge is an absolute masterpiece. Everywhere you look, there’s beauty—whether it’s the stunning African-inspired architecture, the lush surroundings, or the incredible savanna views with animals roaming right outside your window. It’s like stepping into another world.
The staff here deserve special recognition. Everyone we encountered was kind, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making our stay magical. Their professionalism and warmth made us feel at home while delivering that signature Disney touch.
The attention to detail is impeccable, from the decor to the delicious dining options that showcase unique flavors. Whether you’re relaxing in the luxurious rooms, strolling through the lodge, or enjoying the breathtaking views, there’s a sense of serenity and wonder around every corner.
Animal Kingdom Lodge is more than just a place to stay—it’s an unforgettable experience that captures the heart and spirit of Disney magic. I can’t recommend it enough and can’t wait to return!

Overall great location and amenities but needs to be upgraded. The rooms are a bit small in my opinion but it definitely gives safari theme. Being able to see the animals so close is also very neat as well. Side note, they didn’t have microwaves in the room, which was disappointing.

I absolutely love this hotel. It's FREE to visit and see the animals. We love walking around this hotel during the holidays. We took the free shuttle from Disney Springs to the hotel.
They even gave out marshmallows to everyone, even non-guests to roast in the fire. I bought the hot chocolate flight .. so good.

Amazing lodge! Stayed in the 1 bedroom suite with club level access. It was the perfect combo for our family! Lots of room, excellent snacks, staff was always friendly and helpful! Can’t wait to come back again!
