I got upgraded to this room for free during my last visit February 2020 😭 I booked the standard Little Mermaid room. Loved this Cars themed family suite! My room was exactly the same just reversed with a lake view 😍
Love the details and how you present your rooms. Being in the DVC, we don't typically stay at some of the places you film, so it is a great way to see the other rooms and resorts. Keep up the great work!
Hi! Thanks for these videos! We’re going in three months and are letting them pick which suite we are in so it was great to see all three. Have the refurbishments been completed now?
Where are the pillows and blankets kept for the pull out/Murphy beds? I’m really concerned about the lack of storage and no closet.... family of 4 for 10 days....
The beds are already made up with sheets, but the pillows and blankets are in the living room area at 5:36. For a family of 4 there should be plenty of room :)
The main bed is quite comfortable. The Murphy bed is really comfortable too. The couch bed is not as comfortable as the others, but the newer mattresses (like in these rooms) are more comfortable than an average couch bed.
According to this blogpost, all family suites (which include the Lion King Suite) have been refurbished at Art of Animation! www.wdwinfo.com/news-stories/lets-step-inside-a-refurbished-cars-family-suite-at-disneys-art-of-animation-resort/
2 of the 3 Cars suites have been refurbished, so your odds are really good. The other won’t be done for a few more months, so there’s still a slight chance you could get an old room, but definitely request a refurbished one when you check in.
Unfortunately this isn’t accurate. We spoke to a manager today at Art of Animation. The Lion King suite is still being worked on, and an entire building for the Cars suite will not be done for a few more months. Most of the family suites are finished, but they are not all complete at this time.
Thank you for the excellent video. We are planning a first time trip to Disney World in November 2020. Is it still a good idea to stay at this resort if the Big Blue Pool is closed for refurbishment? We have two boys ages 9 and 12. Thanks.
We think so 😊 The Cars quiet pool is still nice and well themed. The quiet pools will most likely be more crowded than normal due to the main pool not being available, but the smaller pools are still fun for everyone and have lots to do. Normally the main pools have activities too, so most likely they’ll move those to one or more of the smaller pools, so we doubt you’ll miss out on any of those.
The furniture does largely looks the same. Except the dressers and nightstands which have new tops. But it's much more than just the flooring. These are the ones we noticed: - Fresh paint that is a different color, plus an accent wall in the living romo ad bedroom - USBs in the wall outlet by the murphy bed, and in the dressers in both rooms - Large screen TVs - Under-the-bed storage in the bedroom - New lamps in the bedroom with USBs in the base - All counters/dressers have been resurfaced so everything looks brand new again - Switched to refillable amenities in the showers (every resort is working that direction) - New mattresses (the bedroom one is MUCH nicer now)
Great tour of a great room. I think Cars is one of their best movies in the last 20 years.
Yes! Great story and great music!
0:02 The way that he looks her was so cute

You’re welcome 😊
Thanks for the videos and info, all rooms look fabulous

Thank you ❤️
Thank you! I’m going with my family and I now know which bed I want!
Yea! 😃
Thank you for this wonderful walkthru!
Very cute room.
We love how awesome the new rooms look 😍
Thank you for the tour! I was wondering what the Animation car suite looked like. it fits the movie!
They did a great job on it!
The decor is lovely!
Very nice
Thanks for sharing
You mentioned the Murphy bed was a queen. Is that accurate or is it a double?? The website says double. Thanks
They are doubles. We misspoke in the video.
Great video! Any chance anyone knows the brand of the coffee maker?
I’m taking my 4 yr old in October for our first ever trip!
Awww...they’ll love this! Have a great time! ❤️
@@HereWithTheEars I bought is this suite because he’s obsessed with cars haha
did you stay in the little mermaid room? love these videos 🙌🏼
Tip: Do a wide shot scan of the room might when you open the door. Thanks.
Hi! Thanks for these videos! We’re going in three months and are letting them pick which suite we are in so it was great to see all three. Have the refurbishments been completed now?
There is a hidden Mickey on the map coffee table that you missed!
I saw that as well lol.
Does anyone know if there are curtains to divide the sofa bed or table bed from the room to enable privacy?
There is no curtain
1/8/2021 did they finally finish the cars area
Yes
@@HereWithTheEars thank you I'll be staying there in few weeks just wish all pools were done

@@HereWithTheEars Thanks!
Hey guys! We are staying at Art of Animation , Lion King Suite from March 1-7 , 2020... do you think they’ll be refurbed? Thanks for your videos!
They were making good progress last time we went there. We plan to go next week to see where they’re at with everything. 😊
Thanks for your quick response! Fingers crossed!

are the couch bed and the murphy bed double/full sized or queen? the room description cites double, but your video says queen...?
Double. We misspoke in the video 😊
The place looks like your living here (50th)
So this is 100% identical to what it was 2 years ago, they just changed the flooring.
The furniture does largely looks the same. Except the dressers and nightstands which have new tops. But it's much more than just the flooring. These are the ones we noticed:
- Fresh paint that is a different color, plus an accent wall in the living romo ad bedroom
- USBs in the wall outlet by the murphy bed, and in the dressers in both rooms
- Large screen TVs
- Under-the-bed storage in the bedroom
- New lamps in the bedroom with USBs in the base
- All counters/dressers have been resurfaced so everything looks brand new again
- Switched to refillable amenities in the showers (every resort is working that direction)
- New mattresses (the bedroom one is MUCH nicer now)
