The walks feel longer than what they actually are. It's just that you're in a long hall the entire time. While the rooms near the lobby on the Savannah side are definitely preferable, it's really only about 5 minutes from the lobby to the end, and the walk from the bus into the lobby is pretty short. It absolutely does feel long at the end of the day. Fantastic , helpful video.

For me, those rooms toward the end of the hall look idyllic. 😄We usually drive and no longer do a lot of park time. I also love my peace and quiet. They may not be the first rooms I request. I would probably want a room somewhere in the middle but I wouldn't be upset if I ended up with one of them.

We were in room 7737 very recently and it was definitely a good bang for the buck 😀

Wow Awesome Video..... I was waiting for it Keep it up... Just amazing..

Thanks so much for this video! The detail is wonderful. I have a split stay booked in May. It's my first time renting DVC points. I had no idea where to begin with room requests so your video has been a huge help! ❤️

I'm currently staying in room 7659 and it wonderful. We've seen a variety of animals and the view is relaxing. Also parking is underground and we were right next to a elevator so we were able to get in and out quickly. My kid loves the room and said it was amazing!

I just want to thank you again for this video. I got the exact room I requested. 7653. Partial savanna view. I would sit on the balcony in the mornings on our off days and eat breakfast while reading my book.

Thank you so much!! This will be a great help in March when my grandmother and toddler come with us and we need to be closer to the elevator!

Thank you, this is a great help! 👍🏼👏🏼

SO VERY HELPFUL- THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO

This is very informative. I am currently saving money to buy DCV and my preferred home resort is AKV. I will make great use of a second and beyond use of these videos when I book.

Thank you. I will try and request those rooms for the deluxe studio standard view. At least I have something to go off of

Thank You, Thank You for this!!!

love this one/ thank you/ going in September

Thanks for your video. My husband and I recently stayed at Kidani Village and we were honestly quite disappointed by this resort. We scheduled way in advance and were excited to pay the premium for the "savanna view". However, most of the rooms with a "savanna view" are facing a bunch of trees with limited/distant visibility to the animals... Our first room assignment was to a smaller "savanna" that only included a subset of Okapi, birds, and deer -- it did not include giraffe, zebra, etc. Just not what was expected. The rooms at Kidani are quite dated, the beds are small and uncomfortable. We explored Jambo House also, and it seems the better building of the two at AKL as it is more lively and has a better angle to the savanna. I've stayed in 5+ Disney resorts, some much less expensive than Animal Kingdom Lodge, and this was by far the worst. The price and prestige doesn't match the quality and value. For anyone considering AKL, skip it, just plan to have breakfast or dinner at one of the resort restaurants and you'll get to see all of the animals. It's not a "bad" place by any means, but I really disagree with how Disney markets and prices this resort as a premium option. If you think you'll be sipping coffee on your patio while a giraffe is standing outside, this is not it.

I recently had my first stay as a DVC member. I was in 7237 on the South Trail. It was convenient to the lobby and to Jambo House, but the view wasn't very nice. You seem to prefer the North Trail.

Great video! Is a higher floor better for savnnah view? Or is it best to stay on the low floor?

I’m more confused than ever, but I’ll figure it out. Two quick questions: 1) Can you park near the main lobby…take your car from your building and not have to do the walk if you’re far away? (Still plan to use WDW buses to everywhere.) 2) If you’ve already booked, do you have to phone to make a room request? I don’t see an online option.

We just booked a dvc rental and I requested any of the partial savanna view rooms

Are these supposed to be better than the regular animal kingdom lodge hotel rooms?

I love your channel! I take so much inspiration from you when it comes to my own channel. I can see that you love what you're doing!! ❤️:) We share the same passion, I love filming videos too :) I'd love if you could check out some of them! 🥰
