AKV Kidani Village Feature Pool Refurbishment - Jan 2022-April 2022

[GADisneyDad14]

Hadn’t seen this discussed much, so noting some important pool refurbishment info for AKV-Kidani guests in early 2022:

From January 2022 through April 2022, the Samawati Springs Pool at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village will be closed for refurbishment. During this time, Guests staying at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village may enjoy the Uzima Springs Pool at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Jambo House. You may see and hear construction noise while this refurbishment is underway, but you should not hear noise from Guest rooms between dusk and 9:00 AM. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Didn’t they just refurb that pool like last year?

The Uzima Springs Pool (the feature pool at Jambo House) was closed for refurb for several months not too long ago, sometime in 2019 if I’m not mistaken.

Good to know for next year.
We go toward the end of April, so they might be done before we arrive.

The refurb is next year, 2022, so probably not!

When they say April, does that really mean April? I'm planning a big family trip for May and would love Kidani, but would really want the pool open. I know there's no guarantee, but is Disney pretty good about sticking to the closure timelines?
