Need help - Jambo or kidani

[rie'smom]

Hi, right now we have reservations at BCV for April 24-30. I'm thinking about changing out 2 nights to AKV if a villa is available. My friend is coming with her 9yo son. We do not have to worry about buses because we'll use taxis. Also, the 2 parks we'd be visiting on the 2 days would be MK and AK. Is Jambo attached to AKL and do some of the units have a savannah view? Also, is the concierge worth it if I can get that?
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!

Both Kidani and Jambo have savannah view rooms. Personally, I prefer AKV. The lobby isn't as impressive but the rooms are amazing.

Getting DVC Club Level at this short of notice would be next to impossible.

I was able to book Jambo 1 bd savannah view for the first two nights of our trip which is exactly what I wanted!
When you say AKV does that mean Kidani? I ended up with Jambo because I liked being in the main building with the awesome lobby. Hoping I made the right choice.

AKV would be the DVC portion of the resorts. So the top 2 floors of Jambo House and all of Kidani Village.

Thanks so much! I wasn't sure if like BWV and the other resorts all of AKV was separate from the resort area.

we prefer Jambo house. I like to have the quick service food option a short walk away and prefer the lobby.

For a studio I like Jambo because of the convenience.

For a one or two bedroom or longer trips I like Kidani because of the extra bathroom and the quiet feel. Wait...I don't think Jambo villas have the extra bathroom, right?

That's right. No extra bathroom at Jambo House. And all two bedroom villas are lock offs. Plus no stand alone shower in the master bathroom. It's combined with the jetted tub.
