Our Most Recent Vacation

This froggy (and family) friendly food court was the perfect place to fuel up before hopping to the parks!

Frog Family Snaps

What we love

At 277 sq. ft, standard rooms are the largest of all the Value Resort Hotels!
Frogtastically themed rooms based on “The Little Mermaid”, “Cars’”, “Finding Nemo” and “The Lion King”.
Family suites sleep up to six and feature three sleeping areas, two bathrooms and a kitchenette.
The Big Blue Pool is the largest pool on property and a Frog Family Favorite complete with underwater speakers and zero-entry edges.
The food court offers a create-your-own-pasta bar, freshly-made smoothies and mouthwatering gelato options.
It’s the only Value Resort Hotel to offer a business center!
One of the few Value Hotel Resorts that offer suites accessible via interior hallways, making it feel less “motel-like”.
Easy access to Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios (including Galaxy’s Edge!) and other resorts via the brand-new Disney Skyliner gondola system!
Dog-friendly accommodations are available so that the entire family can enjoy some vacation time.

Keep in Mind

The hotel charges $13 plus tax per night for self-parking.
It’s one of the higher-priced Value Resort Hotels.
Don’t froget to book early as it books out quickly during busier seasons!
“The Lion King” themed-suites don’t have their own quiet pool, but they are close to the Big Blue Pool or the “Little Mermaid” quiet pool.
The Big Blue Pool will be closed for refurbishment beginning in fall 2020.

Notable Facts

The floors and dinnerware in Landscape of Flavors (the in-house food court) are all made from recyclable materials.
The Resort’s swimming pools are so big they could fit 125 cars inside all of them!
The arcade is cashless and uses a “swipe card” complete with recharging stations.
The landscape perfectly matches the themes in each section, such as ocean-looking plants in “Finding Nemo” and desert-like plants in “Cars”.
The Big Blue Pool is the only saltwater pool on property.
“Finding Nemo” are the most popular suites!

Frog Family Tips

Be sure to visit the lobby mural, which shows the evolution of beloved Disney animations all the way from sketches to final art!
Arrive early to get a cone-themed cabana at the “Cars” pool — they are free and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
We toadally recommend upgrading to a suite if you can swing it, even if you don’t need the extra space.

Best For

Families, especially those who have more than four people in their party, looking for a Value Resort Hotel with deluxe-level theming.
