The Walt Disney World Resort has announced that a new deluxe level hotel will be built in the area between Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground.
The as-yet-unnamed resort will be a deluxe resort with 900 rooms and proposed Disney Vacation Club Villas, making it the 16th DVC resort on property.
The hotel will be “themed to complement its natural surroundings”
“This resort experience will be a celebration of Walt Disney’s lifelong love and respect for nature, with some fun and even surprising accommodation types that families will find irresistible,” said Terri Schultz, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Vacation Club. “It will give our members and guests yet another opportunity to stay in close proximity to all the newest attractions and experiences in our theme parks, and with the flexibility, value and world-class service families expect from Disney.”
The resort is slated to start welcoming guests in 2022.
Other hotels coming to Disney World soon include an updated Coronado Springs which will soon be home to a 15-story tower; Disney Riviera Hotel which will be the 15th DVC Resort and is located near Caribbean Beach Resort; and the immersive Star Wars Hotel which will be located adjacent to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
