We spent a week in Orlando, half of which at the AKL. This is my first time at Disney and I didn't know what to expect. But, I ended up really enjoying the AKL. If you do stay here, I recommend having a car. Since this property is further away, it makes getting around a lot easier. What I really... More

This Hotel is great if you are traveling with children. I was surprised at how new it felt compared to some of the other Disney Hotels that I have visited. There is a heated pool, playground, arcade, multiple restaurants, etc. They also have various activities for kids throughout the week. Our kids got to decorate cookies one afternoon which they...

my wife and i decided to stay here after we got back from a cruise. it was soooo awesome. Giraffes feet away, Zebras grazing. We ate at Jiko and just amazing food...I highly recommend the duck entree. We had great weather, saw tons of wildlife and everyone was so helpful explaining facts about each creature. We loved it.

Just returned from a week at the AKL. Very nice resort and great amenities. Great to have a room with a view to see the animals. View / no view depends what you are looking for when choosing a resort and how much time you anticipate spending in your room. Many places to sit and view the animals all over... More

Just got back from a lovely stay at Jambo House. We took advantage to the low season discount offers and stayed Club Level king on the zebra trail with great savannah view. Our room was not immediately ready, but check in was a breeze with excellent service delivered by Cast Member Chris. I was surprised they are not allowed to... More

Just spent a short time at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. I think they expect that every visitor is a potential member of Al-Qaeda. Check-in was a full 20 minutes. Then buying tickets for the park, another 20 minutes. And they did it wrong, marking a child's ticket as an adult. What's the big deal? When you get to the park... More

The Animal Kingdom Lodge at Disney is our most favorite place to stay on Disney property. Although you do have to take a bus to get to any parks, the resort makes up for all of that. Our most recent stay at this resort was in January of 2012 for Disney's Marathon weekend. The decor in the Lodge is warm... More

My wife and I (24 and 25 years old) stayed there a week from 1/25/12-2/1/12. First, let me mention that we are Florida Residents and Annual Passholders, so we did get a discounted rate for the hotel (especially it being value season!). We originally requested a king bed, savanna view on the 2nd floor. Check-in was fine, however they couldn't... More

Checked-in here for a 2 night break following 2 nights at the Wilderness Lodge. Theming here is excellent and broadly designed in the same style as Wilderness Lodge (same architect apparently)! After having had such an overwhelmingly friendly greeting at Wilderness, I was a little underwhelmed here. Nevertheless, the Lodge is beautiful and interestingly laid out over a number of... More
