Stay at a Disney World Villa for Less than Art of Animation Family Suite
While pricing out Walt Disney World options for clients, it came to my attention that it’s entirely possible to stay at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort for less than a Family Suite at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. You just need to search around for the right dates. This is where a travel advisor is key in helping you plan your vacation to Disney World.
For example, if you were to book March 31, 20 through April 6, 2020 using the Early ‘21 offer, you could stay in a 1-Bedroom Villa at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort for about $30 less than an Art of Animation Family Suite.
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort , 1-Bedroom Villa
While $30 might not seem like a big savings on 6-nights, keep in mind that Saratoga Springs is three resort categories higher than Art of Animation. A Saratoga Springs 1-Bedroom Villa comes with a full size kitchen, full size appliances including a dishwasher, a fully equipped kitchen (utensils, plates, cups etc) and washer/dryer right in the room.
The master bedroom has a king size bed along with and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. There are two bathrooms, the master bath has a whirlpool tub! Rooms have a spacious balcony off the living room.
Family Suite Kitchenette at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
A family suite at Disney’s Art of Animation has a kitchenette that consists of a mini-fridge, a microwave and a small sink. The master bedroom has a queen size bed, a double-size sleeper sofa and a pretty neat table that converts into another double size bed. There are two bathrooms but no whirlpool tub. For laundry, you’ll have to use a shared laundry room at the hotel. There are no balconies at Art of Animation.
1-Bedroom Villas at Saratoga Springs (715 sq. ft.) will sleep up to 4 adults whereas a Family Suite at Art of Animation (565 sq. ft.) will sleep up up to 6.
One major plus for Art of Animation is that it’s on the Disney Skyliner System with gondola service to Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Saratoga Springs is close to Disney Springs, and in some cases within walking distance. Bus service is provided to the theme parks.
While both resorts have a lot to offer, there’s a lot more value in the amenities offered in Saratoga Springs Resort 1-Bedroom Villa.
