Disney's Art of Animation Resort (Part II)

[PrincessSuzanne]

I put the birthday button inside so you can get the scale idea.

Thank you so much, they do look just a bit larger than the one at Pop, but work like the one at CR. As long as my iPad and other small valuables fit, I'm good.

That looks identical to the ones at the CR!

The one we had at CR was deep, instead of tall like this one, more like a vault. I wish they had them like that everywhere.

I can't remember, honestly, it looks like the door for one we had at one of the deluxe hotels, one that was wall mounted. I remember GF was a floor mount, think Contemporary was too. Wall was at YC, maybe BWI too. I could put wallet, my laptops are all huge, and I don't think the iPad would fit either.

Just looked at online photos, it looks like the for from CR floor mount but on a wall mount safe.

We last stayed at CR in 2007 and it was in the floor and I remember my purse fit in it and several other things, it had the code like this one appears to.

At BWI and BWV, we had the regular ones in the wall in the closet with a key. My iPad would fit (it fit at Pop last month), but probably not my laptop, but I don't take it with me. I like to put my wallet and keys and iPod in there.

I was there in June, I just don't remember if they had them or not. I can tell you that they do have them just across the bridge at Pop.

They should have them at every resort in my opinion! Thanks!

I saw one today! They have them and some awesome new themed food!! 2 different lemonade drinks with lime foam on top with the Mickey head shape and also a breakfast chicken sandwich with a Mickey shaped egg on top!!

Yes! Those other treats sound really delicious too! Is the chicken sandwich just like a chicken breast?

Well, I agree with you there, but you never can tell. Now that I think about it though, I haven't actually had one since our first visit back in 2005, but I have seen them.

So, a question for those who have been there ~ does AoA have their own bus transportation, or do they share with POP?

Yes, they have their own buses.

Great, thanks. We were at POP a few years ago and it was nice not having to stop at all the other resorts when it's soooooo late (even without little ones) ~ us older ones get tired too

So true!

 

[E-P-C-O-T]

I was able to add the first 2 nights to our res, so, we will be staying at an AOA LM room for all five nights!! No POP/AOA split stay for us.

Soooooo excited!!

Does anyone know if the Little Mermaid rooms will have free wi-fi as on website it states for an additional charge?!?!

I believe all resorts now have free wi-fi. On Disney's site on the AoA page, it says this:

Wi-Fi is available in all Guest rooms and select public spaces

Here is more info.

Watch Disney movies under the stars. By the pool or on the beach at select Resorts, you'll have a unique experience only Walt Disney World can provide. For more information go to the Guest Information desk in the lobby.
