You will love it! DH and I had a 3 night stay last year (preceded and followed by other resorts). We had savanna view and we loved having coffee and snacks on the balcony watching the animals! There are also verandas with rockers to watch the animals. The pools at both Kidani and Jambo are beautiful! The one at Jambo is near the quick service restaurant, The Mara, and we enjoyed dining by the pool. We also enjoyed watching swimmers (it was too cold for us) at the Kidani pool and they have a snack bar there. That pool is zero entry and both are heated. There are fire pits to sit around. The CM's who are around the fire pits and look out points are very interesting to talk to - discussing the animals and themselves. There is a work out room if you are into that. We enjoyed walking from Kidani to Jambo to get exercise. There are tennis courts. At night, you can get night vision goggles to try to find animals. We dined at Sanaa, which was wonderful. If you dine there before dark, you might get a table by the window to view animals. When you check in, they will give you an itinerary of events. I'm pretty sure there's some sort of event with the chef of Sanaa. You can be sure to be at certain locations to watch animals eating and learn about them.
I'm sure there are more experts than I am on these boards who will respond.
You definitely did your vacation correctly - planning to relax at AKV after your BWV stay! You will love it! Enjoy![/
Your personal anecdotes of your stay only provide my wife and I with more excitement for our trip, which is unfortunately still 7 months away, but I appreciate hearing about your trip and how much fun you and your husband had!! I absolutely can't wait to just spend time peeking out over he savannah and enjoying all that the resort has to offer especially after learning that AKL has so many great dining options and an amazing wine list! Thank you for sharing!
