Animal Kingdom Villas- Jambo House

[dolewhipandpixiedust]

So I was able to book a value studio at JH through Disney (crazy I know) for a very good deal. I have looked but I can’t seem to find a lot of info about them. Any stories, pictures, or tips are appreciated

Well, 1st off I take it you're talking about the DVC villas....Not in Kidani but over at Jambo..
These are located on the 5th & 6th floor....But for values they are scattered only on the 5th I believe. The locations of these vary, but there is a chance that you can get a parking lot view , to a pull, view, or even a savannah view as well.

We were lucky, when we stayed. We got on on the 1st pod of rooms to the right on the Giraffe Trail...So close/convenient for everything tbh...And our view (albeit partly obstructed) was facing the pool...Sorta right above JIKO.
This will give you an idea of what to expect..

You’ll be on Giraffe or Ostrich trail - the 2 shorter hallways at the front of the resort - on the 5th floor. As mentioned the views are mixed and there aren’t many value villas to begin with so I wouldn’t expect a view request to be met. The value studios are slightly smaller than the standard & savanna view studios at Jambo. You will have a queen bed and a sleeper sofa.

just a heads up, you can't make any requests to a value room.

For the price I got I could care less about which view lol plus it’s only 2 of us for our honeymoon so space isn’t really a concern

I’ve read that other places too but it doesn’t really matter because I was going to request close to lobby anyway

In a value you are never really far from the elevator to the lobby. Maybe if you are lucky you will a room with a savanna view.

I think the studios are a wonderful set up for a couple as you never have to use the sofa as a bed and the room feels so much more spacious w/ just the one bed and a sofa.

That’s what I thought too! The couch will be nice because I won’t feel weird having 2 beds

CONGRATS in advance! Good for you, by 10 months the pool refurbishment should be complete!

Thank you!! I’m glad they’re doing the pool now instead of next year! What exactly are they doing to the pool?
