Our visit to Animal Kingdom Lodge
We visited Animal Kingdom Lodge this month. I thought it was awesome. My daughter said she was disappointed. My youngest son loved it. I guess it all depends on your style. My husband like The Contemporary better. I liked Animal Kingdom Lodge better. The pool at the Animal Kingdom Lodge is only 3 and a half feet deep at its deepest part. The water slide I thought was awesome but my 16 year old said it was too small. Smaller than it looked in the photos. My younger son loved it. I loved the landscaping, style of the place and the animals we saw. The hot tubs smelled way too strongly of chlorine. It actually gave us a bit of a stomach ache. I would recommend staying at this place if you’re the type of person who enjoys going to the zoo and animals 🙂

Great Club Level!
Had a wonderful stay at the Animal Kingdom Lodge recently! Sprang for the Club level access room and boy was it worth it! Great food and amenities from morning til night. A family can easily use the Club as breakfast and dinner.
Tips for Families
Well worth the extra $$ to book the Club level!

Great place to stay with kids!
Our room overlooked the grasslands. At night as the kids were going to sleep, we could hear the Animals’ various calls. In the morning when the kids woke up, we would look out and see giraffes Feeding nearby.
Tips for Families
Definitely take the safari ride

Go to Africa in DisneyWorld!
This place was great. There were easy shuttles to the parks and great restaurants in the resort. The best part were the animals roaming around the grounds- zebras, giraffes and more!
Tips for Families
Spend the extra money to get a view of the animals! Make dinner reservations ahead of time.

We had an amazing time! We are locals, so going to the parks wasn’t a priority. Intead, we enjoyed the animals, great pool, and roasting marshmallows at the fire pit!
