AKL LITE unofficial FAQ thread#10 - I believe that's known as a 'Jambo Dozen'

[dgbg100106]

We have moved our trip too Brandi. Not sure if I posted or not.

We were going in June, now we are going July 29- August 5 @ AKL.

I will make the change when I get back to my computer...

Hey there, we are AKL, Jambo May 2 - 16 !!!! Can't Fricken wait. 14 nights, 15 days, this is our Trial DVC run ... and trial FP+ run to be fair. But still, very excited. For like half a month, the real world is going to cease to exist and we will be in the heart of the world of magic.

I will add you when I get back to my computer...

I know this probably has been covered, but there is a lot of pages to read. I am hoping to get a three bedroom villa at Kidani at the seven month mark in a few weeks. I will request Savanna view. If I want to be near the pool, what do I request? Is the Rafiki elevator the first or second from the lobby? Is there anything else I should request? There will be almost 20 of us in a grand villa and two bedroom villas ranging in ages from 2-62. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Do they have regular coffee makers in the DVC Studios or the pod coffee makers?

The DVC studios all have the 12 cup basket filter drip coffee makers.

(The non-DVC rooms have the pods.)

Thanks. Will be bringing Dunkin Coffee with us then.

This is a good plan. I'm going to bring my own for our trip, which begins in three weeks.

katema52, I think the Rafiki elevator is closest to the pool. I need to check, though, because I can't remember off the top of my head.

DH will need to start his day with a good cup (or 12) of coffee. Brought Dunkin coffee with us when we went to Saint Maarten a few months ago.

Is there a map anywhere of what the layout is for Kidani? The only one I can seem to find is for Jambo.

Question regarding drinks in the club level lounge. What are the non-soda options? My kids don't drink soda at all.

 

[hill6]

Thanks so much.

Hi - we are first time Disney and AKL visitors. We have reservations for Jan 17-25 Savannah view. Any suggestions on any requests we should make regarding rooms? My 8 year old is very excited to see the animals from our room but my 70+ mother will also be with us so I don't want to add a lot of extra walking. Thanks!
