I agree; I wouldn't stay at AKV without savanna viewIMO the savannah view is the reason to stay at the AKV.
I took my DD 19 and her cousin 11 last March. We stayed in a studio non-savannah but our balcony looked out on animals.....just not giraffes and zebras. For the small amount of time we spent looking outside, I was fine with those animals. We don't spend a ton of time at our resort on trips. We spent the extra money saved from non-savannah on dining.I just booked our first stay at AKV for June. I booked a studio savannah room at Jambo House. Any thoughts on Jambo vs. Kidani? Also, is it worth the extra points to reserve the savannah view or is the standard view ok? Thanks!
There are plenty of great public viewing areas
We just returned from 9 days at Kidani. I think the longest we ever waited for a bus was maybe 10 minutes and the longest bus ride was maybe 15. We were very pleased with the transportation. I also highly recommend a savanna view. I don't think I would stay at akl without one. I ended up getting sick and spending more time in the room than planed. The animals kept me company! I just laid in bed with the curtains open.Thanks so much everyone! It will just be my 14 yr old DD and myself. I am sure she will love the savannah view. How are the wait times to get to the parks? AKV is our home resort but my hesitation about staying there has always been that it is always a bus ride to the parks (unlike many of the others with the monorail, boat service, or walking)
