Does AKL have alot of repeat vistors? Thinking about going back for the 3rd time.

Every time I think about staying somewhere else on our next trip in early 09, I keep wanting to see the animals at AKL again. Never have stayed anywhere but AKL but love the atmosphere and animals. Are we crazy?

You are not alone. We have lots of Members (who are not DVC) who go to the Animal Kingdom Lodge ALL the time. I'm not surprised...it gorgeous.

We feel the same way. We stayed once and fell in love and returned often to look around, relax in a viewing area and eat at Boma. We have DVC ownership at BWV and SSR but, now that we own points at AKLV, it's our #1 choice for every vacation.

My AAA TA told me that AKL was the second most popular Disney resort based on repeat bookings.

We do this too. In fact, we've never stayed anywhere else (but I'd like to try the other resorts at some point which is a good excuse to keep going back!) We just can't tear ourselves away from the great atmosphere!

I think the WL is #1 for repeat bookings. That is another beautiful resort!

My family has stayed at the WL during our last three visits, and we are returning in July. I love it there, I asked my DH if he would like to try another resort and his reply was, "Are you crazy?" I think lots of people probably feel the same way about AKL. It's hard to switch when you really fall for a place!!!

We take turns between WL and AKL. We love them both, and usually the price is the same.

I find this interesting...I have recently decided that the WL is my favorite, and I can't think of staying anyplace else either. However, I would have thought, based on all the "fan mail" here, that the Poly ranked #1!

Poly is great for location but it needs pool heating and a hot tub. Last september it was freezing.

We have tried other places and always come back to AKL. I want to go to BCV next trip (2009) and my DH is already pouting. I am addicted to the animals and the "smell" of the lodge. If you have stayed there you know what I mean. I think everyone has their favorite and AKL is one of ours.

We loved the AKL and would probably repeat every 2 years or so or split it with a stay at the Poly. We love the rich colors, meeting the CMs from African countries, and the smell of Boma.

We did a split stay between AKL and BWI on our last trip several years ago. We are planning a big trip this August and decided to do AKL then DisCruise then Poly! What a way to celebrate turning 40!
