What do I need to know about AKL??

[emilymad]

I decided on a last minute trip and the only hotel that is available is the AKL. I know nothing about this hotel. Help!! What do I need to know?? How much are refillable mugs? Are there towels by the pool? How are the buses? I am sure I will have a million more questions once I process the fact that I am going. Any reviews? Thanks!!

And if you do a search on this board you'll find lots of thread on AKL. There is another FAQ just a few threads away:

Yes there are towels by the pool. Buses are great. All you need to know is that this is the most wonderful deluxe resort and you are going to love it!!!

We love AKL!

The mugs are $11.99 -- just like other resorts.

The only thing -- and I mention this because it does bother others -- is that some perceive the resort as being dark -- and by dark, I mean the lobby is dark -- dark wood paneling and all. And some consider the rooms to be a little dark than what they are used to, but we love that. When it's really hot outside, it's nice to come back some place a little dark and cool.

One thing I would like to mention is that there are a lot of activities that go on at the Resort during the day -- if you could take the time to participate in some of them -- you will love it! In all reality, I think you could come to the AKL and take advantage of the activities and the great places to dine and not set a foot into the Parks and still go home having had a great vacation.
