This Is The Most Unique Hotel In Florida And You’ll Definitely Want To Visit

It’s not always easy to live in such a big tourism state, but there are some benefits. We’re surrounded by some incredible attractions, restaurants, and hotels that you won’t find anywhere else in the world. Perhaps the most spectacular is Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge in the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando.

If you've ever longed for an African vacation but didn't have thousands to spend on airfare and other expenses, we have good news.

You can experience all of the beauty and splendor of a luxury lodge on an African savanna without ever leaving Florida.

We all know Disney has a reputation for creating magical experiences, but this lodge will delight both kids and adults alike.

No expense has been spared in creating an authentic African lodge and a truly unique resort experience.

Thatched roofs, a mud fireplace, and hand-carved details mimic the actual architecture of kraal villages.

In fact, you'll find the largest collection of African art in the U.S. right here in the Animal Kingdom Lodge.

With this impecable design and live performances of African music throughout the day, you'll swear you've left Florida and embarked on a real safari.

The award-winning on-site restaurants serve authentic African cuisine, as well as American classics for those less adventurous eaters out there.

The horseshoe shape of the lodge provides stunning views from the rooms and public areas of hundreds of exotic animals roaming the savanna.

From the comfort of your room, you can spot more than 30 species of animals you've probably never seen outside of a zoo.

Guests can catch a glimspe of giraffes, zebras, flamingos, gazelles, and lots of exotic birds, all while sipping their morning coffee or dining in one of the lodge's restaurants. You can even dine with an animal specialist and learn all about these incredible creatures.

Of course, there are also all of the amenities you expect from a Disney hotel, including stunning pools. a spa and fitness center, playground, activity center, arcade, and even campfires and outdoor movies under the stars.

There's even a footbridge inside the lobby! Have you ever seen another hotel with such incredible details? If you have an adventurous spirit, there's no question that you will fall in love with this unique hotel.
