Disney's Art of Animation Resort

Staying on-site at an Official Walt Disney World® Hotel gives you several great complimentary benefits, including free parking, transportation and more. You'll be able to make FastPass+ reservations 60-days advance of your check-in, whereas those staying off-site can make reservations up to 30 days in advance of each day of their theme park visit. FastPass+ allows you to pre-book up to three ride or attraction reservations per day. 

The Frog Family absolutely loves staying on-site not just for the fun themes and Disney atmosphere of the hotels, but also for the convenient amenities. Some of the other complimentary benefits include:

• Free MagicBands - You will have MagicBands shipped to your home (within the U.S.) or provided upon arrival. MagicBands are used as hotel keys and allow you to touch-and-go while entering the parks (Valid Theme Park admission required), using FastPass+ or PhotoPass locations, and making purchases. 
• Convenient Proximity - You can easily go back to your hotel from the parks if you need a break or want to relax at the pool. It's just as easy to head back to the parks after relaxing at your hotel for a couple of hours.
• Free Airport Service - With Disney's Magical Express® Transportation, the convenient motorcoach service transports you between Orlando International Airport and your Disney Resort hotel. Have your MagicBands ready to go at the airport before boarding. Learn more about Disney's Magical Express® Transportation.
• Free Park Transportation - Along with complimentary transportation to the airport, you'll also receive free transportation to all Disney Theme Parks! Depending on which Official Walt Disney World® Hotel you stay at, you'll have access to the Monorail, water launch and/or bus transportation. Many of the Official Walt Disney World® Hotels are also walking distance to the parks and other resorts.
• Free Wi-Fi - When staying on-site, you'll have access to complimentary wi-fi, available in your room and select public areas, such as the pools, arcades, restaurants and more.
• Free Parking - You'll receive complimentary parking at Disney's Art of Animation Resort, plus the other hotels and the parks. This can add up to a big savings, especially on longer stays!
• Extended Theme Park Hours - With Extra Magic Hours Benefit, you can enter the park on select days one hour early, or stay an extra two hours after park closing. If you want to be able to stay at a park during regular hours, but use your EMH for a different park, you'll need a Park Hopper ticket. Read more about Extra Magic Hours Benefit and when we recommend you use them. (Valid Theme Park admission and Resort ID required)
• Kids' Programs - The Official Walt Disney World® Hotels offer child care services for a cost when parents want a night out. They usually require advanced reservations, so be sure to look into the resort's specific program! All resort guests are welcome to use the child care services at any of the Official Walt Disney World® Hotels. The following resorts offer child care services:
