    5 Reasons You’ll Love Disney’s All Star Movies Resort

    1. Check-In Online/Mobile check-in is always encouraged.  There is nothing more convenient than not having to interact with a cast member to get into your room, regardless of how pleasant and accommodating they are.  Our room was texted to my phone the second it was ready all via the Online/Mobile check-in.   Having said that, our trip did have to get cut short a few days into our stay.  The cast

    2. Rooms Disney spared no expense in building the different room areas of this resort.   We stayed in Toy Story where they playfully recreated “Andy’s Room”.  For the younger generation of guests, I’d ask to be placed in this area if possible.  Some of the other areas were 101 Dalmatians, The Mighty Ducks, The Love Bug, and Fantasia.  The set up itself resembled Caribbean Beach and Coronado Spring

    10. Character Icons If the sketches didn’t make your jaw drop the more than 2,500 sculpted character icons surrounding the resort surely will. Larger-than-life sculptures featuring all your favorite characters (and not so favorite characters) from The Little Mermaid encompass the buildings and pool areas in this distinction.

    8. Art Classes Among the many onsite activities to delight in, perhaps the most unique resort exclusive is having the chance to take in a free art class. An actual character artist can be found at the hotel three times a day, leading lessons on drawing some of the most iconic Disney characters. These art lessons are held in a special area near the front desks in the lobby.   Photo Credit: Disney

Take the plunge in three different onsite pools—the Cozy Cone, Flippin’ Fins, and the Big Blue Pool. The Cozy Cone follows the Cars theme, with cone-shaped cabanas and life-sized models of your favorite charac
