A ceiling mounted fan will keep you cool, but the real kickers are the beautifully themed bedroom and exotic view from your window.

What with a view of the savannah and traditional furnishings, you’ll feel like you’re truly in Africa when you take up one of these rooms. Just take a peak outside and you can see all the wildlife you’d expect to see on a savannah.

You can also expect all the features and amenities which you’d find in a Standard Room too, including plush bedding, a flat-screen television, well-equipped bathroom and a spacious sofa to kick back on. 

For a true taste of Disney luxury, you should take up a 1-Bedroom Suite. Including a separate living room, a kitchenette and a larger bathroom, this option provides far more space and comfort compared to the other options on hand. The classic bells and whistles of an Animal Kingdom Lodge accommodation are all still here, including traditional African furnishings, flat-screen television, a larger table with several chairs and of course, a beautiful view of the African animals enjoying the glorious outdoors.

Enjoy the luxuries of a suite with an additional bedroom, making for the ultimate sleeping arrangement insofar as space and comfort go.

Sofas and armchairs are of a heightened quality, the savannah views are stellar from your furnished balcony, and course you can expect all of the grand amenities seen in other room standards within this hotel.

Enjoy the traditional flavours and spices of Africa blended with Indian and Mediterranean influences when you dine at Jiko – The Cooking Place.

Named after The Mara river which flows through Kenya and Tanzania, this place offers African stews, half-chicken dinners and more as well as US favourites like burgers and chips too. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner so no matter what time you arrive, you’re in for a slap-up meal. What’s more, you can dine in pure elegance as the atmosphere at The Mara is simply divine.

Gather round the fire and roast some marshmallows as the sun goes down in a brilliant old-fashioned campfire. Channel your inner girl or boy scout and be at one with nature in this fantastic outdoor activity. Tell stories and reflect on your amazing holiday so far around a roaring fire, and if you’re planning on sticking around, watch a Disney movie to round off an amazing night.
