Idk why animal kingdom lodge wasn’t high on my list, but it is now. One of the most immersive hotels on disney property

It is one of our favorites for sure! You 10000% need to come back in club level, it is amazing

We stayed here in 2019 for 15nights for Halloween and it was the most incredible place to stay. Waking up every morning to giraffes...heaven. they had just finished half of the refurbishment so we got new rooms. The resort put on trick or treating around the resort on Halloween night and we got loads of halloween rubber ducks, beads and sweets. This resort made me not want to stay anywhere else. We had 2 connecting rooms one being a magical moment for our family. Such amazing cast members they go above and beyond. Wish we could come back here. We're from the UK so we just need about £12,000 or more😅 I have a wooden giraffe on display to remind me of this amazing place🦒

Wow its so crazy. My husband and I used to go every year before we had kids in early 2000's. It used to cost us about £2,500. We had kids and came back in 2011 and was £4,000 for 3 of us. Then 2019 £8,300 for 4 of us. What's crazy is we used to be able to do Universal seaworld discovery cove etc aswell in early 2000's. They have took so much away from us now, no fast passes and they have messed with the dining plans. Should we go back? Probably 😂 ill start playing the lotto!

Our flight back to Toronto was canceled due to a snow storm March 3, 23 - so Disney put us at AKL for free!!!!!! (until we could re-book our flight - which was the next day :( ) they gave us park hopper + passes and food credit too - we LOVE AKL!!!!

The lodge is beautiful!! The food looked delicious. Venison when it’s prepared properly is not gamey and the meat is super lean. Buffalo is similar in taste and also very lean. Your room is in an awesome spot. So relaxing watching the animals.

Wow, what an awesome place Animal Kingdom Lodge is. So much to love! That bridge inside so cool. The animals outside was like something you only see when vacationing in Africa. Loved seeing Casey. Your vlogs are always better when you include other people. Casey and Lora are always appreciated. Watching Jojo on your vlog yesterday was cool too. Watching you eat is low on the cool side but your reviews on everything from food to gas prices to resorts are high on the cool side.

We love the Animal Kingdom Lodge - best theming for sure! Just wish they had better transportation to the parks. You have to rely on the buses and sometimes it's a long wait for one. Everything else though is awesome - Boma is the best breakfast buffet at WDW, Jiko is amazing, the pool... the list goes on and on. You did a great job covering it all!

Love AKL! We'll be there for Christmas this year, cannot wait! Also agree about the lower floors, this is the only resort we request a low floor, we're usually on the second floor and it feels SO close to the animals. Would love if you did a club level video from there, we're staying club level there for the Christmas trip and have never stayed club level there before so definitely would be cool to see your take on it.

It’s one of my favourite resorts , we are there in September for 4 nights in a one bedroom! Laura barmaid at the pool is really lovely , jiko is amazing , they did wine tasting on Wednesday pre covid that was really good ! The pool is fabulous! They’ve changed the menu at the Mara so I’m gutted ! Not a buffet person so don’t bother with boma , tried it once for breakfast and once for dinner ! Prefer saana in kidani! But springs is only a bus away ! Have fun

Having withdrawl symptoms watching this. Stayed at Kidani for a couple nights a little over a week ago and ate at Jiko last week on our recent trip. Jiko was the best meal I've had a Disney in a long time. Have to try the duck confit flat bread and the grouper. Top notch! And you're right about the giraffe bread, underrated and needs to get talked up a bit more.

@RaeHale-vm5vl 11 ай бұрын

We have stayed at Kidani more because we have DVC. Stayed at Jambo House once in a DVC value studio and could definitely feel the difference. Jiko only once but Boma many times for dinner.

I’m not sure if you know this, but there used to be a van shuttle that goes constantly between Kidani and Jambo House for free! I’m not sure if they still do this. You can also take any bus that stops at Jambo House before Kidani if you don’t want to walk. Jiko has neve been one I’ve liked, even as a kid. But BOMA. Boma has the best breakfast buffet on property and is one of my favorite dining experiences. If yinz book one dining experience, book Boma for either breakfast or dinner. You won’t regret it! Another must-do is getting the pina colava from the pool bar. It’s a pina colada with raspberry puree in it. You can also get it virgin and both are amazing.

I absolutely love Animal Kingdom Lodge but have serious bad luck when I stay there. The first time I stayed there, I found out my grandmother was dying and was worried I wouldn't make it home in time. The last time I stayed there, we ended up needing to call 911 because my mother-in-law got covid pneumonia so that was a super scary experience. I should also mention that the covid trip was when we came there to be in Magic Kingdom on October 1, 2021...needless to say, that didn't happen and we ended up quarantined in a cabin at Fort Wilderness while my MIL was hospitalized. What an experience! Disney was awesome through it all though. Anyways, our family also stayed at Jambo house club level one time for NYE one year. Their club level is fantastic! The smell when you walk into Jambo house is also amazing. :)

We stayed there back in 2005. What a great hotel! We were way out on the far arms of the hotel too, but opposite of where y'all were. Not sure why they dialed back on the lobby smell, but the smell back then was glorious! Wish I could find it in a room deodorizer. :)

AKL has the best food on property! We go there every trip for one meal or another no matter where we are staying. Sometimes even just for the Mara quick service. I just wish they had some other form of transportation besides the buses. Every other deluxe has this….even just a walkway to Animal Kingdom would be fine. Hard to justify that cost with just buses. But man, the food, the animals, the theming….just amazing!
