This value resort offers a less expensive opportunity to be surrounded by the Disney magic and take advantage of all the great amenities like booking dining reservations 180 days plus 10, complimentary bus transportation, free MagicBands with the opportunity to book Fastpass+ 60 days in advance, opportunity to take part in the Disney Dining Plans, as well as resort recreation and themed pools. Think of it as a Disneyfied Motel.
All Star Movies surrounds you with your favorite Disney friends, on a REALLY large scale. Imagine a 4 story tall Pongo the Dalmation or Buzz Lightyear! This is a fun and whimsical resort. The drawbacks are the small rooms, poor sound proofing and the resort often shares buses with the other All Star Resorts.
The resort themes demonstrate enormous statues from classic Disney movies like Fantasia, 101 Dalmations, The Mighty Ducks, Herbie the Love Bug and Toy Story.

All-Star Movies offers only smoke-free rooms. Designated outdoor smoking areas are indicated on the All Star Movies Resort Map.
All Star Movies offers Disney’s Online Check-In program, which allows you to you provide name, address, and credit card information up to 10 days before your resort arrival. Once you arrive at the resort, you’ll be directed to a special queue area for those who checked in online and your room is often ready before guests who haven’t used this free service.
Guests who haven’t registered online will be directed to a separate, and probably longer line. You’ll need to provide proof of ID and a credit or debit card at registration.
Each member of your party will be presented with MagicBands that you ordered online during your reservation. They come in a variety of colors for those booking in advance or grey for those booking with short notice.

The All Star Movies pools vary in depth from around 3′ 6″ to 4 ‘ 9″ deep. The pools are heated during cooler weather and maintain a constant temperature of 82F year around. There are no hottubs or jacuzzis. There are no pool slides, but there are lockers, showers and restrooms at each pool. The pools are typically open from early morning to 9pm to 11pm daily. The Fantasia pool is staffed most of the day with trained lifeguards, but the Duck Pond pool doesn’t offer lifeguards.
Infants and children are allowed to use swim diapers. Water wings, inflatables, and “pool toys” are allowed at all Disney pools, and every pool has free life jackets to borrow.
