Disney Vacation Club is developing a new
time-share resort on Walt Disney World property to meet ongoing strong
demand for its unique vacation-ownership program.
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas will be located at Disney's Animal Kingdom
Lodge, which readers of Travel & Leisure Family magazine recently honored
with the No. 4 spot on their list of the 50 greatest family resorts in the
United States and Canada.
One-Bedroom Villa
"We continue to see strong demand from families who want to build a lifetime
of unforgettable memories by vacationing in ways they never dreamed
possible," said Jim Lewis, president of Disney Vacation Club. "I am
delighted to announce that our members will have yet another place to call
home with Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas. This begins another exciting new
era for Disney Vacation Club as we continue to explore future destination
possibilities both domestically and internationally."
Master Bedroom
The Disney Vacation Club accommodations will feature intricate
African-inspired details and home-like amenities, and most will offer
sweeping views of an expanded savanna inhabited by a variety of African
animals. Members who call this resort "home" will live their very own
true-life adventure in a setting inspired by the intrepid explorers and
historic expeditions of 19th century Africa.
Master Bedroom
Walt Disney Imagineers are designing the new village of Vacation Homes to
feel curiously at home in the natural world. The architectural style will
evoke the look of a thatched-roof, hewn-timber structure that will appear to
emerge organically from the land beneath it, drifting in and out of view
from lush landscapes like a giraffe hiding in the tall grasses of the
savanna. Add authentic artwork, imaginative architectural details and
Disney's world-class brand of storytelling, and the result will be an
immersive village unlike any other.
Master Bath
These new accommodations are scheduled for development in phases with an
anticipated opening beginning fall 2007, with completion scheduled for
spring 2009. The project's first phase will include 134 remodeled
accommodations on the fifth and sixth floors of the existing Disney's Animal
Kingdom Lodge building, and subsequent phases will include the construction
of 324 Vacation Homes in a new building on the resort property, for a total
of 458 Vacation Homes.
Studio
The highly anticipated project also calls for construction of a new
table-service restaurant, themed pool and water-play area, fitness center,
merchandise shop, sports-and-recreation facilities and more.

Disney Vacation Club, now celebrating its milestone 15th anniversary, is an
innovative time-share program that lets families enjoy flexibility and
savings on future vacations at Disney destinations and more than 500 other
popular vacation sites around the world. Since 2000, Disney Vacation Club
membership has doubled to include more than 300,000 individuals from more
than 100 countries and every U.S. state.
Studio Bath
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas will be the eighth Disney Vacation Club
Resort, joining five others at the Walt Disney World Resort, one in Vero
Beach, Fla., and one in Hilton Head Island, S.C. Disney Vacation Club has
sold out of memberships at its first six resorts, and sales remain ahead of
schedule at its seventh property, Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa,
which opened in May 2004 near the Downtown Disney area at the Walt Disney
World Resort.
