Just purchased a small contract for AKL. Looking for the best side to stay (and why) for a SV Studio. 2 adults, 1 is in a wheelchair.

Thank you!
 
You'll want to stay at both eventually as it is entirely personal preference, and it's a short walk/shuttle ride between the two and you can take advantage of both resort's amenities when staying at either.

For a first stay I'd do Jambo House just because it is "the" animal kingdom lodge.

Both resorts are stellar and a jewel in the DVC portfolio, you really can't go wrong.
 
When staying in a studio I’d select Jambo any day. I like the resort, the shops and restaurants. The lobby is awesome and i like the pool.

If I wanted to stay in a 1br I might go with Kidani due to the extra bathroom.
 

If you’re doing a SV kidani is best. Not so great views at jambo. Like previous poster said, DVC rooms on the 5th floor.
 
Just be aware that the hallways at Kidani are truly long - 1/3 mile from lobby to end of each. It makes for a very long walk home at the end of the day, if you’re near the end.
