Checking in January 29th, 2014-Feb 2nd. We haven't booked yet, but we know we will be staying there after our cruise!

Will put in for rented points for a value soon!

Hi There! I have done online check-in and now I am wondering where do I request 2 queen beds instead of 1 king. I just saw the first page (very nice!) and didn't realize all of the bed options. We will be in a Jambo Deluxe studio, we rented points. Do I have to call and add it to the reservation? 4 weeks from today!!!

If you have a studio, you will have one queen bed and a sleeper sofa. No choice of beds available, so no need to request anything.

Do you want me to put this on the list or wait?

We can wait... I'm 85% sure it will happen (we just don't know how long my husband's strike will be so I need to find out if I should go ahead and book since you have to pay it 100% in advance or wait until it is over).

One Week till Kidani! We'd do the Mickey Dance, except the family is down with a tummy bug. Up side, it's not flu or strep. It seems to be a 24 hour thing that is passing through our neighborhood.

Makes me want to give everyone a bleach bath and burn all our clothes to start new...~laugh~. Can't wait for some Florida sunshine! Just have to survive the Autotrain with three kids, first,

Cuddlemama · 01-18-2013, 01:11 PM

I should add that we're 1/26-2/9 at Kidani. Half in two studios, and the second half in a 2bd standard view.

AquaDame · 01-18-2013, 01:14 PM

For those that have done both, why do you prefer Kidani over Jambo? We stayed in Jambo last time and loved it! We are just two adults so we don't need another bathroom or even more room, and when we went over and visited we were underwhelmed by the entrance compared to Jambo. Wondering which we should request for next time since I'm wondering what we are missing. Thanks!

My husband and I are big Jambo fans. We looked at kidani/dvc. Weren't too impressed. But, we don't cook, and have no kids.
