AKV Kidani Pool-Spoke to MS

[Luv2trav]

I had the most helpful MS lady on the phone today. I was so blown away from her customer service. I asked her about Kadani pool being open in June. She called over to someone(not sure who) and confirmed it will definately be open for our trip in June..

Sorry this doesn't take the place of pictures but I am relieved to know it will be open.

That is great news but I sure hope it's open May 1 as originally planned?!

I am sure it is too... I just wanted to confirm for my dates for peace of mind.

Unless there are construction delays, I'm sure that it's DVC plan to have the pool, restaurant and all other basic services operating when Kidani Village opens on 5/1.

That's awesome I can not wait to see it

Wait, why is a pig symbolic of BLT? If anything, it's more representative of the amazing and lovable Red River Hogs at AKV!

Thanks. The few times I have called they have been very helpful. MS also told me that the pool would be open for opening day. Woo Hoooooooo can't wait for June.

Always nice to follow up good service with a little email to MS. They have returned my call each time I have emailed an aTTaboy or attagirl depending on the CM

Thanks for posting. We will be there late-June and I've had my fingers crossed.

The few pictures that have been posted don't seem to show a lot of progress lately. Maybe a lot of interior work. And there are no pictures of the pool, probably due to its location -- beyond where the casual observer has access.

Does anyone know if there will actually be a pool there? I see in the mock-up that there will be waterpark type attractions but I'm hoping there will also be a pool for swimming . . . ideally one with zero entry and sand! Or at least a baby pool.

I hope it's really, really great - that would be such an asset to the resort!

The member website says that it will have a zero-entry feature:

"Samawati Springs Pool
Cool off in this zero-entry pool that features a 128-ft. long water slide. Take relaxation to a whole new level in one of the two whirlpool spas near the main pool, or refresh at Maji Pool Bar."

we were told a couple of weeks ago by MS,that pool and resturant will be open may.it was in long thread about rooms think lisas
to be honest they will have to have the pool open as origanal pool at AK is way to small for the extra guests at the DVC part,dont forget there was no pool hoping for this reason

This is one pool that I am very excited to see!

Our reservations are not 'til end of August. I am looking forwrad to trying a new DVC resort and definitely it's pool.

 

[Brave teacher]

We have our first DVC trip in 25 days, but our first trip to our home resort at the end of May is the one we are looking forward to the most. My boys cannot wait for this pool!

 

[Crisgw]

We totally cannot wait to use the new pool in September when we go!
