There are pictures of AOA on the official disney world resorts website under Accomodations - Value Resorts. AOA family suites sleeps six. There is a master bedroom that sleeps two and a master bath. There is a living area with a sleeper sofa that sleeps two and there is a dining table that folds down (murphy style) into a bed that sleeps two. There is 2nd full bathroom off the dining living area. There are interior corridors and no balcony or door that opens to the exterior. The resort as a whole looks like a lot of fun. There is a thread here on the resort board that also has pictures and links to video. AOA also offers standard rooms in the Little Mermaid section. You could rent two standard rooms if you can get them connecting. This would give you four beds that would sleep 8. With a family of 6, one person in each family would have a bed to themselves. You would still have two bathrooms but no kitchette and rooms would open to the exterior with no interior corridors. There will be three separately themed pools at AOA and a large food court, gift shop, and arcade. There is one bus stop outside of Animation Hall.
You could also stay at any of the other value resorts in two rooms.
DVC Villas also have two bedroom suites. These are quite pricey but you can rent points at dvcrequest.com for considerably less money. But there are restrictions - mousekeeping only once every four days, towel and trash service once every four days unless you pay a daily fee, no refund, and at least half payment if not full payment for room upfront, and most likely you would need to book 7 to 11 months before travel dates for availability. There are pictures of DVC rooms here on the disboards under accomodations or on allears.net under accomodations.
Keep in mind with renting points you will not be purchasing a package and will purchase dining and tickets separately.
You can also get two adjoining rooms in any of the moderate resorts the same as you can in a value resort. If
free dining were to come available for your dates, value resorts offer quickservice dining plan and moderate resorts offer table service regular dining plan. You can always upgrade a quickservice dining plan to a tableservice dining plan but there will be an additional charge if you are staying value.
