AprilJust booked our 2020 trip and we're excited to be returning to Jambo House! We'll be there 4/14/20-4/25/20. Looking forward to our savanna view, breakfast at Boma, the Star Wars races, my nephew's high school band performing at DS - it's gonna be a great trip!
Done...Brandi ~
Can you change our date? I added a day [July 1] at AKL....
Am I the only one who really prefers the look of the old rooms? I know Disney has been slowly ditching all its theming but Animal Kingdom's theming was so iconic. This is just such an incredible shame. It looks like a random hotel room with a couple of Lion King prints tacked onto the walls. I'm really tempted to request a non-refurbished room, but I don't want to be woken by loud construction in the next room either

I'm really going to miss the ceiling fan!I think I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with the refurbed rooms, but won't know for sure until I get to stay in one. I liked how dark the old rooms were, I like having carpeted floors, I liked having a fan and I even liked the netting above the beds that pulled the theme together. But I also understand why they made the changes and the bathroom upgrade and other little changes to theming and accessibility are all probably for the better. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

JulyI like the "dark" look of the original rooms. They seemed plusher, more exotic.
BTW, you can add us to the list:

This thread from a couple of months ago has a link showing where the standard views in Jambo are https://www.disboards.com/threads/akv-jambo-standard-view.3748119/#post-60576209Excited for my first stay at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Got a Priceline deal back in January for Sept 6-15 in a Jambo Deluxe Studio Standard View. Not a whole lot of rooms are Deluxe Studio when looking at the room guides for AKL Jambo, and pictures seem out of date (ones I've found). Anyone stay in this room group recently and had a good view (of pool since that's main view of this group)? Seeing if there's one I should try to request.
Oh, and the pool has been great so far for our young kids. The slide is fun enough for my 7yo but tame enough for my 4yo - this is the first time he’s done a pool slide on his own and he’s obsessed.
We haven’t visited the Kidani pool yet, but looking forward to it!
