"Kidani" is a Swahili word that means "King of all DVC"

Great photos of the Giraffes - they look particularly playful in your pics.

I enjoyed your pictures, and I think Kidani is something special too!

Ditto! One day when we were there the giraffes were running. I could watch the animals all day long.

We did an add-on at akv while vacationing in Feb. & stayed in a savannah view studio at Kidani in May -- & we fell in love with this dvc resort!! The decor, the atmosphere -- wonderful! It is now a favorite of ours. I am staying there in August w/ my mom and I can't wait!!

We completely agree. Just got back from Kidani a couple of weeks ago. We still dream about it. We love that we call it home.

we were at kidani 2 weeks ago my first stay with my dvc points and its my home resort also .I am glad i chose it. We spent hours just talking to the african guides and sitting on the rocking chairs by the fire at night while everybody else in the resort was at the parks.

I think I may have told you this already but when I was at Kidani in March I saw the MEECE Family embroidered on the wall hanging near the fireplace. AWESOME!!!! I too like Kidani and plan to stay there again.

 

[jamie&Greg]

I agree!! We stayed about a month ago and it may be my new fave!

Great pictures!!!

We are staying for in January for 3 nights then going on to the BLT! Does anyone have any preference to which Savannah rooms are better? Or any suggestions on where to request a 1 bedroom? Never stayed here before so any info would be greatly appreciated!!!

ccigliano, thanks. I have to admit I get a real kick out of it, our kids love to go looking for it.

2giddy4wdw, I've never been on the Savannah that has the Okapi and the red river hogs (yet). We usually just ask to be near an elevator.

We're checked out now and in Vero. Here is an album with some more pictures kidani/jambo if anyone wants-
