I'm so glad I could be of some help, if even it was to get other
people to write in!
I wanted to respond to people who asked me specific questions...
Mapletree: I must have just checked in your room(5313)
after you on the 20th! Yes it was a bunkbed room! Is that
Hilarious??? What a small world! We didn't get water bottles,
but the concierge person(Tanya) did send me an African
Music CD earlier in the week with a list of other CD's available!
I couldn't believe she did that! I had just asked her what music
played at the lodge and she did some checking...next thing I
know she sends a cute bag with the CD to our room!
The Latte machine was fixed on Monday, so we buzzed for
only 2 days!!
Hedily: Tikiman just posted 1st floor views for every room
on the first floor on this forum labeled POLY Room Requests.
It's awesome...however I don't agree that my room (1504)
had a blocked view, but maybe 1505 is just so much better!
I really like the 1st floor, for the quick access to beach!
HockeyMom: You are going to love AKL and the safari!
My kids went to the lounge early, so that they could get
a snack before the safari! There wasn't much food at 6: 30
but at 7:00 when it regularly opened they brought out the
pastries and such. We don't usually eat much of that because
I don't feel good later...and I'm glad we waited because the
breakfast at Tuskers was to die for!! You'll have a blast!
crzy4WDW: We never put our kids on Neverland, but they were
much older(8,12,14) so we got to go eat Breakfast at Grand
Floridian without them one morning! I had called concierge
to make some arrangements and you're right they do call back
promptly! Also , just a tip, I asked for extra robes for the kids
(they didn't have them there when we arrived, but I asked again)
so they felt very special too! They are great for trips to the pool!
Just don't leave them or they'll charge you for them!
Have a great time!!!
