Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas at Kidani Village
Resort Amenities
About this place
In early 2009, the new Kidani Village brought Vacation Homes where most of the rooms offer more spacious floor plans than those found in other Disney Vacation Club Resorts and all one-bedrooms will sleep up to five people. A brand-new full-service restaurant where you can enjoy savory meals. An additional savanna that you can view from your room. A feature pool and water play area — fun for children, tots and teens.
What Makes This Stay Unique
A stay at Animal Kingdom Villas at Kidani Village brings a unique magic to your Disney vacation. Over 30 species of African wildlife fill the 21-acre savanna that surrounds the resort, and you can learn more during your visit from your in-room field guide or by animal programs run by Animal Specialists.
Samawati Springs at Kidani Village is a lush water wonderland with zero-entry and a 128-foot water slide. It also includes Uwanja Camp, the largest dedicated splash and play area at Walt Disney World. You can play and work out at the basketball, tennis, or pickleball courts or hit the Survival of the Fittest Fitness Center.
Make sure to sample the iconic bread service at Sanaa, where delicious east african cuisine can be enjoyed with views over the Sunset Savanna for breakfast, lunch or dinner, or enjoy an adult beverage at the Sanaa Lounge. The Maji Pool Bar is a perfect open-air spot for a quick bite and refreshing drink beside the pool. Guests staying at Kidani can also enjoy all the restaurants and amenities at Jambo House too!
