Sunday Showcase: Disney’s All-Star Music Resort
“Let the rhythm move you at this Resort hotel that pays homage to some of the world’s most popular music genres, including country, jazz, rock ‘n’ roll, calypso and Broadway- style show tunes. Large-sized, music-inspired icons outside and subtle song-and dance surprises inside provide a harmonious setting for music lovers of all ages.”
Brief History
Disney’s All-Star Music Resort is one of 3 All-Star resorts in the Value Category. This resort opened to the public on November 22, 1994, with its final building opening just 4 months later. All-Star Music similarly to All-Stars Movies, was recently refurbished which transformed 2 double bed rooms into two queen beds, with one being a Murphy table. Additionally the carpet was replaced with hard surface floors.
All-Star Music was also Walt Disney World’s first attempt at Family Suites.
The room decor while becoming more clean and sleek still provide the Disney flair. One great piece here is the Huey, Dewey and Louie headboard in the Murphy bed.
