Animal Kingdom Lodge is an experience like no other. When else do you get to wake up to giraffes outside your balcony? Small kids love this and it provides lots of entertain at the Resort.

I also love the food here. Sanaa is Indian-inspired - love the bread and sauces. Jiko is the upscale option and excellent. I usually avoid the buffet at Boma but the casual Mara is a great option.

Kidani has recently been refurbished so I recommend that building if possible. There are different animals in the different savannas so check that if a certain furry critter is important.

The pool is great and comes accompanied by a slide and pool bar.
