Ever wondered what it’s like to wake up to the sight of giraffes right outside your window? Our latest episode takes you on an enchanting journey through Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge at Walt Disney World in Orlando. We share our unforgettable experiences staying at Kidani Village, the exclusive haven for Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members, and why booking a Savannah view room is a game-changer. From the lush African-themed decor to the refreshing pool in 37-degree weather, we compare Kidani Village to other Disney resorts, including our home resort, the Riviera. Plus, we tackle the logistics of relying on bus transportation for park visits, ensuring you’re fully prepared for your magical stay.

Join us as we recount our stay in a deluxe studio using DVC points, making it both luxurious and affordable. We delve into the room’s features, address common concerns about animal smells and noise, and give you the lowdown on dining options like Sanaa, Boma, and Jiko. And of course, we couldn’t forget Gerald the giraffe, who made our visit truly special. Wrapping up, we reflect on our five-night adventure, share future plans, and emphasize the importance of your support and engagement. Don’t miss this chance to discover why Animal Kingdom Lodge is the perfect retreat for animal lovers and Disney enthusiasts alike!
