FROG FAMILY REVIEW
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village*
What we love
- One of the most fun resorts, with savanna-view studios and villas; and plenty of opportunities to see the animals on the grounds
- One of the best restaurants on property in Sanaa, which serves traditional Indian and African dishes (plus American favorites)
- More terrific dining options, including the best buffet on property in Boma, at nearby Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge
- Zero-entry Samawati Springs Pool has one of the best slides and splash area that includes water cannons; grownups will love the bar
- One of the nicest gyms on property
- 1-Bedrooms can sleep 5
- Free parking!
Keep in Mind
- Hotel charges $33 per night (sales tax included) for valet parking
- Furthest deluxe resort from Magic Kingdom® Park
- Not on monorail or accessible to parks by boat; requires bus or car
- About half the rooms offer views of the savanna and animals
- Main feature pool isn't as close to rooms as most other resorts and can be quite a distance from furthest rooms
- Furthest studios and villas are quite far from the lobby and pool
- Room decor is beautiful but quite dark
- No water recreational activities
- No on-site quick-service dining; closest location is the Lodge, which is a long walk (shuttle buses are available)
Notable Facts
- Villas are home to 2 savannas, Pembe and Sunset
- Zebras are the only animal that are found on both savannas
- The first phase of the Kidani Village Villas opened in July 2007
- Kidani Village Villas are larger than the Jambo House Villas
Frog Family Tips
- Pick up an animal viewing guide from the front desk if you don't find one in your room
- Request a room on the higher floors for more expansive views; request a room on the 2nd floor to be closer to the animals; the 3rd floor is likely the sweet spot
- Sweet spots are savanna view rooms 7X01-7X93; these are closes to the pool, lobby and dining areas
- Try the bread service at Sanaa with its choice of nine dipping sauces
Best For
- Animal-loving families who want deluxe amenities, including casual and upscale dining, at a lower price point than the monorail resorts

Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village Information

With stunning scenery that celebrates the wonders of Africa, architecture that captures the spirit of safari and stellar Disney service, this is a magical place in the heart of the wilderness.

Guests may park and check-in at the building at which they are staying.
Planning to visit a theme park? To enter a park, both a park reservation and valid theme park ticket, for the same park on the same date, are required for Guests ages 3 and up. Keep in mind: a hotel reservation does not guarantee theme park access (though Disney Hotel Guests do have access to a separate pool), and you’ll need a Disney account to make a separate theme park reservation. Prior to booking, be sure to view theme park reservation availability as park reservations are limited in availability and not guaranteed. You can check the reservation availability here.
