Celebrate the Holidays at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge


Christmas Tree in Lobby

No matter the time of year or the season, the Animal Kingdom Lodge is always one of our favorite hotels to visit at the Walt Disney World Resort. The lobby is amazing, the savanna views can’t be beat, and dining at Sanaa (or Jiko or Boma) is always a culinary adventure!

But when we visit the hotel during the Christmas season it’s even more incredible.

The huge tree in the middle of the lobby is stunning and beautiful and it might just take your breath away! There are other seasonal decorative touches around the hotel so keep your eyes open for them.

And dining at the Animal Kingdom Lodge restaurants is always a culinary adventure but dining over the holidays is quite special too. Sanaa normally offers guests a special Christmas menu on December 25 in addition to the regular menu, and Jiko often has special holiday offerings too. This year Boma rang in 2014 with a special New Year’s Day brunch – we’re hoping they offer the same for 2015!
