A Truly Magical Place to Stay

I cannot say enough excellent things about this resort. We have stayed at many Disney resorts, but this one blew us away! We ended up spending almost 2 full days just enjoying what the resort has to offer from the amazing pools and water slides to the fantastic dining choices. Many of the activities that we took part in were even free such as cookie decorating and cultural experiences. Our studio villa room was very spacious and we absolutely loved the balcony overlooking the savanna where we could view many animals such as giraffes and zebras. The cast members were so kind and attentive, like we have come to expect at Disney, but there were a few that just went above and beyond to make our stay magical. We will definitely be staying here again during future trips to Disney World.

Animals great, food average

It was a very good stay generally. The animals being visible from the bedroom window was a real highlight for my daughter who loves giraffes. Everything regarding the theme parks is run as you would expect from Disney. The only two gripes would be that it was very random when the room was cleaned. This is not ideal when you have young children who need to sleep in the afternoon. The other thing would be the on site dining. It is incredibly average and expensive for what it is. You are much better off going a short distance down the road to places like Outback and Texas Roadhouse It is half the price and better food.

Clean hotel. Staff not that friendly. Check in took longer than other hotels. Constant issues with magic band access to room. Needed to switch three sets over three nights in my room, once at midnight as my kids laid down in the hallway since we couldn't get into the room and it took nearly 30 minutes to solve the issue . Artificial apologies with no true explanation except that our name spelling wrong. We had a group of 16 in 5 rooms, 3 of the rooms had room access issues due to magic band. Pool is being renovated, second pool you need to take a shuttle bus to get to. We took a 1 year break from Disney and stayed in Universal resorts instead, universal totally outclasses Disney in my experience.

Glad we went, but 2 nights plenty of time

Something on our bucket list so we made the 2 night stay to overlook the animals. While it was cool, after about ten minutes, it lost our interest. We paid extra to be in a one bedroom so lots of room and large balcony, and it had both, but a lot of money spent for extra room we didnt use or need. A little dated too, especially the bathroom for that kind of money. Pool super crowded and on the small side. On the positives, the bus to the parks worked great, the BOMA buffet was terrific, loved the carrot ginger soup. The market had plenty of fresh and surprisingly priced appropriate food; we picked up bagels and cream cheese that fed us for both mornings. And the interior atmosphere of the lodge was beautiful. But 2 nights max here, you would be bored more than that, and go for the least expensive room possible. The view from the room isn't even necessary because viewing areas on every floor. But it was cool to look out at midnight and see Zebras walking by...not a site we will soon forget...so worth the visit, once.

パークからホテルへ帰るバスは、キダニとジャンボが同じバス。先にキダニに着くよ。

オールスタームービーに泊まったあとに、ジャンボに泊まった。オールスタームービーと比べると、建物も作り込まれていて良い雰囲気だった。部屋には、電子レンジ、コーヒーメーカー、アイロン、ドライヤー、冷蔵庫（中はカラ）などあった。バスローブはなかった。ベランダにはテーブルと、椅子があった。ベランダから動物が見えるようになっていて、くつろいでいるとたまにシマウマやキリンが姿を見せた。レストランはブュッフェスタイルと、普通のレストランがあった。普通の方は、ドレスコードがあった（水着と、サンダルがだめだったような）。フードコートもある。フードコートは飲み物のおかわりが自由になる、リフィルマグが使える。お土産やに、日本人の店員さんがいた。
