Which DVC did you decide on again? Was it Jambo house?
Which DVC did you decide on again? Was it Jambo house?
Well see here is the dilema i'm facingFrom what i've read on the resorts board.... Kidani's rooms are bigger which would be great for getting ready ect. But from looking at pictures and my own experience staying in Jambo house last year... i think Jambo house's lobby is amazing for pictures. Which doesn't mean anything.. Kidani's lobby could be just as awesome and pictures just dont do it justice... i know pictures of Jambo's didn't. So i was going to wait and make a quick last second decision
What do you girls think?!![]()
I just emailed the people i'm renting DVC points from because i should be giving them our information soon! WOOHOO! And it got me thinking about where we should make ADR's... i know its early but one of DF and I's favorite things to do is make our ADR's! I'm looking to do different places than we haven't done so we can experience new places!
so far here are some places we were thinking about going to.. i want to know your opinions if you've eaten at these places and if you have other suggestions for us...
sci-fi (wanted to do this last year but couldn't get an ADR)
San Angel Inn (we always say we should do it but forget for some reason)
teppan Edo (always wanted to go and see how they cook!)
Whispering Canyon Cafe
So far thats all i've been able to come up with.... lol any other suggestions?

Ohh good ADR's!! Eric and I are going over ours later. He LOVED Whispering Canyon...all you can eat skillet haha. Tell Adam not to eat at all that day!
We stayed at Jambo house but my boss just stayed at Kidani Village. She said the water park/pool thing they have is amazing!
I went through the same dilemma. Df and I loved the look of Kidani, and the reviews on it all seem to say that it is more relaxed (probably because of less people) and the pool looks awesome. However, we choose Jambo in the end. Here are our reasons, if it helps you:
1. The amenities. Lounge, counter service, restaurants, etc.
2. The view. I didn't want to pay to upgrade for a decent view...I'll wall to a look out to see the animals. However, at Kidani, if you have a standard view, you look over the parking lot. At Jambo, DVC rooms are guaranteed a pool or Savannah view.
3. The lobby does look quite a lot bigger, and at the time I was planning on doing a photoshoot, and I thought jambo's lobby was much nicer.

Sci-fi is reeeeeeaaally fun! and the food is very good. we looooved it.
Me and DF hated San Angel....so many people like it...while it was pretty...we got crappy seats and the food was blah! it had no kick...we were extremely disappointed especially *** we LOVE mexican. so I would say no to this...if you ask me. I'm a vegetarian and DF is a huge meat eater and we were both unimpressed
I haven't eatten at the others. but I plan on eating at Whispering.
LOVE Sci Fi, it was so fun! The burgers are tasty too. The shakes are really really thick though, so order them with your meal, so they melt a little and you can actually drink them!
Haven't been to Teppen Edo, but it's on our list. We have similar restaurants here, so that one usually gets bypassed if there's somewhere else we want to try or go back to.
Tutto Italia is really good, we went for lunch and loved it. Other favorites, Tusker House (breakfast), Jiko, Liberty Tree Tavern (lunch), Hollywood Brown Derby, and the Yachtsman.
We've stayed in the Jambo DVC before Kidani opened and really liked it. It felt more part of the action since there's always people around. I also like the restaurant options there. I think the Lobby in Kidani is more subdued (from pics). Either way, if you really wanted to, I'm sure you could get pics in both and the extra space would probably come in handy.
I did hear that the fast food mexican thats out side San Angel is way better! We have plans to get lunch here one day so maybe that would be a better. I still love the building where San Angel is and the ride and market place.
Wow, this is an educational journal, lol! I wanna do deluxe too now!! Except I don't think I can afford it!
