Unfortunately the room types listed for Jambo house in the first post of this thread haven't been accurate since 2007, when the former rooms on the 5th and 6th floors were converted to DVC villas. With a standard view deluxe villa you will be on the 5th floor on Zebra or Kudu trail and will have a view of the pool or a limited/partial savanna view.Hey everyone! I've searched around and haven't been able to locate the answers to to my questions. I've booked my first stay to AKL Jambo house using rented DVC points we got a "standard view deluxe studio villa". I'm a bit confused by all of the room types listed in the very first post.. where are these rooms located? How long of a walk is it to the lobby ftom the rooms farthest away? I also wanted to ask how the bus service is to AKL, the most recent thread I found was 5 years old... I'm a little nervous about it being so far away from the parks. Thanks in advance everyone!
The walk to the lobby can be a hike if you are at the furthest end of either Zebra or Kudu trail, if that concerns you during online check in request near lobby or near elevator.
I'm ok with the buses, I just add extra time if I have a specific time I have to be somewhere (like an ADR.) But I do that where ever I stay on property. The good news is that the buses are for AKL/AKV only, so no sharing with other resorts like other Deluxes and only 2 stops (Kidani then Jambo for all park buses, Jambo then Kidani for DTD.)
