Yes it does, that is what "identical" means--exact same buildings as POP which has connecting rooms.

Meh. Even if the original plans included connecting doors, it doesn't mean they included them during the build. Building a solid wall over a door opening is such an easy change. The ASMu family suites are in "identical" buildings but are very different internal layouts.
They probably have them, but there is no guarantee they are there OR you will get them if they are there.
The LM buildings have been sitting there for years. They are not new construction. They have connecting rooms. They are IDENTICAL to the POP buildings because up until 2010, they WERE the POP buildings.
To quote a PP, I am aware of that.
But the FINISH work wasn't done on them. They were unfinished shells. It might not be very likely, but there is always a possibility the doorway areas were simply covered over/filled in during the finish out. Two doors and frames are more expensive than a solid wall. That's all we are trying to say. Absent actually seeing the finish out on the rooms you just can't tell.
Again, look at the ASMu suites. They certainly changed the original connecting wall structure/doorway openings with those.
And you know this how? That section of the resort hasn't even opened yet. I mean, I expect they will, but they may not...and connecting rooms are NOT guaranteed.
The Little Mermaid rooms were completely built as the "40's" section. They were the ONLY section that was completely done. Here is the info...

Not trying to argue at all, just trying to provide everyone with the correct info. They WILL have connecting rooms, but just because they have them, doesn't mean you will get one.
I know it's speculation at this point, but is there any chance someone who booked a LM room would be "upgraded" to a suite? I think most people would consider it an upgrade since it's more space and more "features", but I could see where someone really might want the LM room.
In other resorts, an upgrade usually means a better location or view and no so much a completely different type of room. Just curious to see what everyone thinks...
Look at this thread.

The pictures clearly show the insides of the building as not finished. They were not completely done.
ETA-I'm not trying to argue either, and I do think they will have connecting doors. I just don't think we can come on here and say with certainty they are there without actually seeing them, KWIM?
Not for free. The suites are WAY more expensive. They would probably ask you to move to POP (if for some reason they overbooked) before offering you a suite.
Actually they are guaranteed if you are 2 parents traveling with 3 or more kids under the age of 18. That is the only way.
Also I was on the phone with guest services for 45 minutes while they double and triple checked to make sure that the LM rooms would indeed have connecting rooms.
But it is true that not all resorts are built with connecting room options. I was surprised to hear that. I have no idea which resorts are like that, but that's what they said.

I'm so antsy waiting until Thursday because if I can get a Nemo Suite for the 29th, we're switching our air and whatnot to go 2 days earlier (from Dec 1 since it will be excluded).
I don't think they will include AoA in free dining, it's a new resort and they don't usually include those in most of the discounts. The only one I know you can get there is the military discount, which I have booked for our Aug/Sept trip.
That is sooooooooo sweet. What a wonderful gesture.
I am almost 52 and my mom and I will be going on our fifth cruise soon to Bermuda. The week after Thanksgiving, we are staying in Williamsburg right on-site in a suite for an entire week. We still love traveling together and she is a spry 75 year old.
I hope you all have years of wonderful mom and daughter trips together.
