Animal Kingdom Savannah view

[autismgoesdisney]

I am totally unfamiliar with the buildings of Animal Kingdom (if there are any). We are only staying one night, but prefer to have a savannah view that is close to the pool and restaurants if possible, namely the pool. Anyone know which section I should ask for?

Thanks in advance!

I would put in a request for the Zebra Trail

If you're only staying for one night and the pool is key then I recommend you pay for a pool room (cheaper than the savanna view) and take advantage of the many, many viewing areas of the savannas. Having a savanna view room isn't a guarantee of seeing the animals (although when we've stayed we have been lucky to get a room near a watering hold that attracted the animals) so why pay the extra for just the one night.

Just a thought.

Not to hijack thread, but we are staying for the first time at AKL and have already booked pool view. What would be a good building/area to request?
Thanks!

For pool view, request 3rd floor near mid elevators. You will be level w/the lobby & be right near the elevator to take you to pool & Mara. We loved that location & there was a savannah viewing spot across the hall.

agree with nemofans! One year we were on the 4th floor but right near the elevators that took a straight shot down to first floor near laundry, and round corner from Mara. It was not bad to take the elevator down one floor to 3rd to the lobby either! There was also a stairwell from the 4th where we just went down 1 flight and were at lobby level too. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pool view for the lush views and the convenience to the pool mara and lobby areas! This year we will be on the 5th floor because we are staying DVC. Have fun everyone!
