The Animal Kingdom Lodge at Walt Disney World Florida is a very beautiful African themed hotel! I was impressed by the huge reception hall. There are a few (pricey!) restaurants inside the hotel. The rooms are standard sized Disney hotel rooms, they were clean and had everything you expect in a hotel room. You can watch some animals (Zebras, Giraffe and others) directly from the hotel area. The pool area was quite nice, with a little (slow) water slide for the kids. We ate in the restaurant with the African food buffet. The food was delicious, only the desserts were oversugared and too sweet. Service in the restaurant was outstanding.

Animal Kingdom Lodge is truly magical. From the moment you step inside the lobby, you are transported to a safari. The lobby is breathtaking and features a ton of artifacts. Our room could not have had a better view. We watched giraffe, zebra and other animals all day. A giraffe even slept outside our window. The club level is definitely worth the extra money as we enjoyed unlimited drinks and delicious food! The concierge cast members are incredible! Also, don't miss the chance to pin trade with King Pin. He made our last day unforgettable. We can't wait to come back next year!

Very nice rooms. Looks updates and has BEAUTIFUL showers! It doesn't have a bathtub like other resorts, so just be aware of that if you are bringing young children. There is a restaurant attached so quick and easy dining, as well as a convenience store for all your quick needs. It is quite far from all of the parks, but if you want a nice resort that is apart of Disney, it's a great place to choose!

Had a great time here. The pool was great, the water slide was a hit with the kids. Room was very clean and super spacious. Lots to do and see in the resort. The activities were fun. The food was good in the quick serve restaurant just wish it had more options.
The animals on site are a huge bonus. We enjoyed our week here and can’t wait to return.

The Resort is located in close proximity to the Disney Parks which makes it convenient. The lobby of the resort is very clean and interesting with many African items on display. The resort is very large and a bit confusing to navigate at first. The resort offers free parking and it's ideal for hotel guests. Several restaurants are located on property and the food at Mara was decent. The pool area was very nicely maintained and enjoyable. The rooms are getting outdated and starting to reveal their age however. And yes, there were giraffe and other wild animals right outside our room. I wasn't impressed with the small area they seem to be living in though or the construction outside the fenced area. I'm sure at some point the construction will go away. Our rooms were clean though and it was a decent place to crash after standing in lines all day. Not great, but not too bad either.
