Onsite now Swan, CR, AKV
First off let me say we started off our week with a weekend at the Swan gotta save those weekend points! I let the kids pick and they wanted to try the Swan/ what a great complex, lots to offer a quick pop over the bridge to epcot. we went to movie night at the pool where they threw out inner tubes for the kids to float and watch. that was a very nice touch. We would definately stay there again.
Next to Bay Lake, where we tried one night. We absolutely loved, adored, enjoyed our experience there. the room was very beautiful and quite large. i didn't think I cared much either way about the 2nd bathroom now offerred in the newer properties, But I take that back it was great to have the big boy's have their own bathroom. I said i was not picky about our view just wanted room ready at 11am. we got first floor right at the areas. and in addition we were 3 doors away from the elevator to the sky bridge. entrance to the boat area. wow great location. We popped in and out of the room to the pool area. now the sort of negative. while the glass block waterslide was beautiful I thought the complex for this building was sort of on the small side. we hopped over to the main building and used the pools over there. Again wonderful!!!!! will say here again in a heartbeat. my 15 yr old says its now his fave. Ok our last hop. over to AKV Jambo club level. love it paradise to me! checked in no issues room ready at 1 pm. hopped over to check out Kidani. just little boy's and I. they were using the waterslide. I was sitting on the ledge of the pool taking photos. Couldn t catch them coming down. So got up toput my camera away at my seats. at most 4 minutes. I look up to see my 8 year old covered in white lotion crying. I walk over. It seems he had exited the slide and gone over to the water play area. ( his brother still on slide) slipped going up the ramp to the water cannons. when he went to grab the rail as he fell his arm went between the 2 railings. honestly this is a very large 8 year old he is the size of most 5th graders. Again I ddin't see it happen. Brother didn't see it. 2 very nice families greased him up and got his arm out. How it wasn't broken I am not sure! But other than a few bruises he is perfectly fine. A lovely little boy came over to me and said. He had fallen twice himself on that ramp/ hopefully the guards take heed and put something there so they are not slipping. so that was our Kidani experience we left soon after and they have zero desire to return. we are here 3 more days and staying at jambos facilities. in short we will return to Jambo again and again. BW, and Cr resort. the kids new list is apparently been altered. to!!! 1st choice Bay lake 2nd Jambo 3rd Boardwalk 4th beach club 5th saratoga |
