How & when do you put in your room request?

[csmommy]

We will be checking in at the Kidani village on 8/13 & we would like to request our Savannah View studio be near the lobby & not be a HR. When & how do you suggest we do this?

Thanks!

We're supposed to make requests when making the reservation. If you didn't do that for some reason, call member services today to add the request to your reservation.

Our resorts don't do that ridiculous fax-your-requests nonsense I've seen other people swear by. My understanding is our requests are met based on who made them first. So, a request at 11 months has more weight than a request at 1 month, which makes sense to me.

I have always made my room request when making my ressie.

Thanks for everyones answers. We have not stayed at AKV or BC before so we were unsure of what to request. Hopefully it will work out OK for us.

I have never stayed at Kidani either. When I made my ressie today, I found the resort map off the allears website. We have a 2 bedroom SV. I knew I wanted to be near pool, elevator and lobby. Therefore, I requested a room in either the 2nd or 3rd bead to the left of (or north of) the lobby. Although not as important as the location, I also noted I would prefer to be either on the 2nd or 3rd floor.

Maybe you might want to want to get that Kidani resort map then call MS.
