AKL Jambo Grand Villa vs Kidani Grand Villa

[BensMom]

Yes, 5284 is closest to lobby. We had a choice of that or the one just north of that. We chose that because the CM talked us into it because it was farther away distance-wise from construction noise. The other one, totally on the opposite side, was occupied, and clearly not affected by the construction. The one we turned down was closest to the animals' pens. The smell can get a bit funky.

Here is a map with the GVs marked in orange. GV #5284 is at the end of the first spur off the left side of the horseshoe, the closest one to the lobby on that side of the horseshoe:

That's the one that I thought had the best view of a savanna from looking at satellite pics.

We just checked out of AKL Grand Villa No. 5284 after a week. Very impressive. Very comfortable...I have pictures. We spent most of the week "supervising" the construction of Kidani Village, as well as the care of Kidani, the young zebra. If anyone is interested, I will load the pics of Jambo Grand Villa and share...let me know.

I had a chance to stay in the GV at SSR last summer. I suspect the Kidani two-stories will be much the same, only with the wonderful African twist for decor.

Hi, BensMom. I've been reading through the old Jambo thread, and you used to post their all the time. You had such great info. As you probably know, the thread is closed now. There is a new thread, though, under the community boards. It is called "Take that shocked look off you face". I would post the link, but I don't know how. Come on over a visit us. You are most welcome. We'll partake in zebra domes and victoria falls mists. Come on over.

Well, thank you so much for remembering me! NOOO, I did not know that long thread was closed! Shows you how long it's been since I have been on. Anyway, yes, I shall check out new thread. In the meantime, I have added (finally) my pics from the Grand Villa. I hope you guys enjoy...

Okay, hold on...I think I just posted my entire Flickr account for all to see! Oops! Hold on...it's not like Flickr makes it easy to create a URL for one to post! Does anyone know how to do this?! Arrrgghh. I'm not that inept that I am computer illiterate! I'm just missing something.
