Long Weekend getaway
The Hotel is tons of fun and the food was great. the animals are easy to see and seem relaxed considering how close they are to humans. The staff is friendly and busy. The one drawback I would give it is that the Hotel can be dark, even the front entrance seems poorly lit. Early December in Orlanda is great, crowds seemed light and waits at the theme parks were never more than 20 minutes even for the hot rides.

Perfect place to unwind after a busy day
Start your day at your balcony, watching all kinds of animals walk around lazily. At the end of the day go to the different overlooks to spot more animals; zebras and giraffes seem to be more active at sunset. There is also african story telling and parade every night. We enjoyed our 8 nights stay very much. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Don't miss the night animal viewing! Cast members will be at the Uzima Savanna Overlook providing night vision googles, and will help you identify the animals. It is just amazing!

Hotel is good, but the airport check-in service is terrible
Good location, good amenities, everything is good. But the airport check-in service is terrible. The service staffs are not kind, even very rude and they have no service-mind. Except the airport check-in service, other things are good. It seems a bit overvalued though.

Loved this place!
this was the best hotel I have ever been in. We woke up with animals outside our room every day and the staff was wonderful, it was like I was in Africa. They had a buses to take u to every Disney park and waterparks. They even had a place to check in our bags to the airport and took care of everything when we checked out of our room. I love this hotel.

Beautiful grounds - so-so rooms
The lobby is impressive, the pool area is great, the savannah cannot be beat! For my money, though, the rooms were sub-par. Not dirty or gross, but just not the quality of beds, bedding, and space that we were expecting given the price. I guess you pay for the grounds, not the beds.

Disney has it down
Disney really has there act together. Everyone was friendly and more than helpful. The only thing that may be improved on is the tv shows in room I thought there would have been more Disney channels and internet was slow when trying to upload pictures. Great pool that they played movies on large screen at pool.
