Pros:The animals! A lot of fun!
S
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:I loved looking out the window and seeing animals! The atmosphere of the resort is serene and calming. I always love my visits here.
Cons:Rooms can sometimes be thin. Noisy neighbors with small children.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Gorgeous lodge. Can’t beat having animals around your hotel!
T
6.5 Okay
Pros:Animals!! Restaurants. Disney ‘vibe.’
Cons:Rooms too small. Too tired. I would place it somewhere between a comfort inn and a holiday inn express.
B
5.1 Fair
Pros:The restaurants are good.
Cons:The rooms in this hotel are very old. Everything is dusty. Beds are uncomfortable. Bunk beds hurt to sleep in. Top bunk creaks so badly, you think you will fall off. No convenient wall outlets. Very, very old tiny TV. Every corner, molding was dusty. Nails missing from wall mirror. Dings in every piece of furniture. The whole room needs more lighting, it is extremely dark. No room to put the luggage rack out to actually put your suitcase on it. I will not be staying here again. If you want to stay at a Disney resort, pick a refurbished one. Pool is not well themed, like other Deluxe Disney Resorts. This hotel does not meet expectations of a deluxe resort experience.
C
9.4 Wonderful
Pros:Animals were really cool. Ease of transportation around Disney property. Excellent customer service.
Cons:It is a very expensive hotel- Rooms are smallish for the price.
A
9.4 Wonderful
Cons:That the safari was 8 & up.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Pay the extra money for a savannah room! There was nothing better than coming home after a long day at the parks seeing giraffes, zebras, gazelles and many other African animals right off your balcony. I've never been that close to exotic animals and I didn't want to ever leave my room! Plus, the service here was impeccable. I wish I could have stayed longer.
