***The Official AKV Owners And Lovers Thread***. Come And Chat

[BigDogHU75]

We just arrived at AKV last night.
We are staying in a 1 BR SV. Room 5319 which faces the Arusha Savanna and is HA. I am amazed at how much you can hear coming from AK. You can hear people screaming (I am assuming as they are plunging down Expedition Everest). We could hear the primates from asia early this morning. We can hear what sounds like a train whistle every once in a while.

Loving the resort so far.

How was your trip? We will be leaving for our first visit home in 32 days. I cannot wait.

Just 13 days before we get back to AKV. No CL this time though. We'll be in a 2 bedroom Savanna view. WE requested Arusha rock.

We bought back in Sept. at AKV and just wondering how did you all add those pictures at bottom of your threads. Everyday I'm learning how to do different things. Thanks

In the villa's that do have a washer and dryer you still need to bring
detergent, dryer sheets, etc.... correct?

It depends upon how many loads of laundry you do. There should be a box of tide for 1 load and a dryer sheet for 1 load.

We were just there 1/1-1/4 and there was a 1-load box of tide, but I don't remember seeing a dryer sheet. We always take laundry detergent, dryer sheets/fabric softener to wash enough loads to reduce the amount of stuff we have to pack. We also take extra dishwasher detergent so we don't run out. There is plenty of dishwashing liquid to get you through.

Hmmm, now you have me second guessing myself. I have laundry detergent and dryer sheets in my owners locker so I used that. Thinking it over, I stayed at 3 resorts during my December trip and I think that one of the resorts may have only had detergent but no dryer sheets. The other ones I think had a dryer sheet.

I guess I am going to have to pay more attention.

Housekeeping will give you more dishwasher detergent, we always ask for more.

Does anyone know whether or not Kidani Village will have concierge. I know at Jambo House there is but not sure about Kidani.

Unfortunately, Kidani will not have concierge level rooms.

We bought 160 points back in October of '08. So far, our only DVC trip (using developer points) was to the Grand Californian this Christmas. I can't wait until we finally head to WDW and see the AKV for ourselves!
