Resort Review: Disney's Pop Century Resort

It's been a week since I've returned from my quick trip to the World and its time to review my stay at Disney's Pop Century from June 8-11. I had nothing bad to stay about the resort getting there was quite the trip though. We arrived at Sanford International Airport around 12:30 and our pickup service was 45 minutes late then after multiple drop offs at Universal and some resorts off-property, we didn't get to Pop until around 4.

Our room was in the 70's section of the resort in Building 10 on the third floor in room 351. It was a beautiful room, only thing was that we had a handicap accessible room which for once we didn't need. It was good enough though as we weren't in the room much. Before we headed over to Disney Springs we enjoyed a late and light lunch at Pop's Everything Pop quick service. We just shared the chicken nuggets and fries to hold us off until dinner.

After a few hours at Disney Springs, we headed back to the resort for a quick dip in the pool before turning in early because the next day was Animal Kingdom day. The water was on the cool side but was a refreshing way to end the day.

After what seemed like a short night's rest, we were up early and down for breakfast by 6:15 for of course some Mickey Waffles and bacon (a normal on any Walt Disney World vacation). We were in line for the bus to Animal Kingdom by 6:45. This was a long day as I will explain in my trip report in the future we were at the park for 17 hours that day. A day well spent at the park. We didn't arrive back at the resort to sleep until 1:15 in the morning on Saturday.

Waiting for the bus to Animal Kingdom

After sleeping in on Saturday, or at least what felt like sleeping in we were down for breakfast by just after 8 and in line for the bus to Magic Kingdom by 8:40. We amazingly got to the Magic Kingdom by 9:00. It was another beautiful day at the park where we spent over 12 hours there that day. Despite some rain showers, it really was a perfect two days at the parks. We left the park right after Happily Ever After and made it back to resort to unfortunately begin packing for our early flight in the morning. 

Overall, Pop Century is much like Art of Animation with its layout. It was a very nice resort for a quick stay and as always Disney theming is on point. One thing I do wish was that we received one of the newer rooms that have just been finished. They add a nice modern touch to the resort. I can't wait for my next trip out there, it just may be at Pop Century. To close out here are some photos I took with my phone as were leaving the resort. 

Stay tuned for my trip report on Pandora: The World of Avatar, the Caring for Giants Tour, plus seeing Happily Ever After live for the first time.
