Another member of the "family" checking in. DH and I are the proud owners of 230 points at AKV. My parents purchased at AKV at the same time... since we all go together we generally function as one "unit". (Not a bad way to get to play with more points! Of course it only works if you get along really well with your parents! ) We'll be "home" for the first time over Memorial Day weekend... then we're doing a big family trip (both my family and DH's family) in early December. I've LOVED the photos I've seen of Kidani... I can't wait to see it in person. We're staying in Jambo in May... but I'll be popping into Kidani to check out the new digs! And we're DYING to eat at Sanaa!

A 200 point family. Acquired while DS was doing the college program in 2007. First trip to AKV in July/August 2010. Any body know where I can get the AKV entrance picture for my signature?

Which picture in particular? If your see one that you like, look at its properties and copy the location into your signature.

Got it. Thanks!

Greetings AKV owners, had a quick question that I was hoping you could answer for an "outsider." Can someone please confirm that the 1BRs at Kidani have the sleeper chair ?

99% sure I've seen it posted on other threads on AKV but for some reason (I'll blame it on being a Monday) I can't seem to find anything to confirm.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Yes Kidani does have a sleeper chair. I do not think Jambo house one though.

 

[LisaS]

The Value 1BR/2BRs (which are only in Jambo House) do not have a sleeper chair. The rest of the 1BR/2BRs in Jambo and all of the 1BR/2BRs in Kidani have a sleeper chair. The lack of the sleeper chair is why the Values accommodate fewer people (4/4/8 for studio/1BR/2BR) instead of 4/5/9.

Thanks to AKVTiger and LisaS for the quick replies.

Was pretty sure of the answer but figured I'd go to the experts to make sure.

Thanks,

Chris

The combination of the different booking levels (Value, Standard View, Savanna View, Concierge) plus the differences in the room layouts between Jambo and Kidani plus the sleeper chair issue makes it hard to keep things straight when it comes to AKV!

My sons and I just got home tonight from a quick trip (actually a long weekend), staying at OKW, but while there we were sure to go by and check out Kidani. It was beautiful. I can't wait to stay there n January. I love how Sanaa looks out over the savannah, and the little sitting areas on either side of the lobby looking out over it as well.

The approach was pretty bland, but once the landscaping fills in it will be much better. Definitely more intimate lobby than Jambo House, but both are quite nice in their own ways. Loved that quick visit.

Only 26 more days until our first official "Welcome Home" at Kidani, our home resort. All of the posts and pictures have really added to the usual excitement of getting back to WDW. So much to do, so little time.

We are new owners and bought the 100 point package. We live in Florida so just a 6 hour trip for us. I work Baylor at the hopsital here so it is rare that we would stay on the weekend friday or Saturday. Our first stay will be in Oct at Kidani in a studio There is just 2 of us. We will spend 4 nights and then go on the Disney Magic and then come back in Jan and stay 3 nights before coming back to Port Caneveral for the new Dream cruise. I hope the studios are ok, It will be a nice change from Pop.

Can anyone tell me what the price is if I buy 25 AKV points now? I might have to do a little add on to save my 200 VGC developers points -- long story, got sick had to cancel DL at last minute this week. TIA!

Never mind, it's $112 a point for 25 points. There were some incentives for 50 points or higher but I didn't pay a lot of attention because 25 was more than what I needed since I have Dec UY so got 50 points right away. Now I have Jambo and Kidani points!
