Cars-Themed Wing Opens at Art of Animation Resort


Walt Disney World's newest resort, Disney's Art of Animation Resort, unveiled just this morning the second themed area, which looks a lot like the new "Cars Land" themed area at Disney California Adventure Park (the theming is, of course, not at the same level, but it does look pretty nice!). Take a look:

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort Opens Second Phase

- Cars Wing Offers High-Octane Fun at Disney’s New Family Suites Resort -

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (June 18, 2012) – Lightning McQueen, Mater, Flo and other characters from the popular Pixar film “Cars” race into Radiator Springs just in time for the summer vacation season today as Disney’s Art of Animation Resort opens the second phase of its new family suites property at Walt Disney World Resort. Less than a month ago, Disney’s Art of  Animation Resort opened its first phase of family suites, themed to Finding Nemo.





In the new Cars wing, featuring 480 family suites, a freshly paved road leads guests on the greatest road trip ever, a cruise down memory lane to small town America — Radiator Springs.  Parked at the entryway Sheriff and  the infamous  Doc Hudson welcome folks into town, along with other car “faces” parked along the road. There’s backdrops of Luigi’s Casa Della Tires, Tow Mater Towing and the Wheel Well Motel, creating an authentic setting lifted from the super-charged adventure.



All roads lead to the 60′s style Cozy Cone Motel where distinctive orange cone-shaped cabanas invite guests to kick back and then take a dip in the Cozy Cone Pool. High-octane theming is full-throttle inside the family suites, with orange cones imprinted in the carpeting and adorning the light fixtures plus animation-inspired artwork. Guests will feel as though they walked into a scene from the blockbuster film as a pull-out bed extends from the living room sofa (whimsically appearing as the back seat of an old hot rod), the tool chest is actually the dresser and the bathroom design is inspired by a car wash.

We will soon head back to the resort to take pictures of both the Nemo-themed area and the new Cars wing.

  1. This is a super, super, sharp looking resort. Someone did a lot of good thinking to come up with the entire concept of these four areas rolled into one. Lots of eye-candy for kids and adults. We will tour this area, just to see what they have done as if it were an attraction. This was a very clever action on Disney's part.

    Pop Century can be reworked. There are ten building currently. Make each one a decade and there you go. The concept behind Pop Century is not lost.

    But look what Disney gained with the Arts of Animation Resort!!!!!

    Great, great job!!!!
