Grand Villa Experts?

[Chic]

We are planning to reserve a Grand Villa in the future and needed some advice from all the experts. It seems like I've seen photos and read posts regarding Grand Villas which have a pool table in the room. Does anyone know which DVC resorts have Grand Villas with pool tables inside the room?

I thought it was just the Jambo House GV at AKV.

I'm not an expert on Grand Villas, but we stay in one every year at OKW, and there is not a pool table there.

Correct, you will only find a pool table at the Animal Kingdom Grand Villas. And, not all Grand Villas at AK have a pool table.

That is correct. The GVs in Jambo House have them, the GVs in Kidani Village do not.

The Jambo House GVs are located at each end of the horseshoe and the ends of each spur off of the horseshoe. Formerly, there were 6 AKL hotel room at each of those locations. When converted to a GV, those six hotel room bays became a master bedroom, a 2nd and 3rd bedroom, a living area and a kitchen/dining room but that only took five bays so they still had one bay left over. So they added a game room and furnished it with a pool table.

Here is a floor plan for one of the Jambo House GVs. The second bay from the left is labeled "BEDROOM" but it is actually the pool table room. As you can see it is a walk through space in between the living area and the master bedroom, definitely not a bedroom!
