You are going to love
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village. The Resort hotel is breathtaking. Be sure to spend some time outside of the lobby looking at the savanna. As you enjoy the beauty of the amazing animals, you may also get to meet Animal Specialists who will be able to tell you more about the animals around you.
Sanaa is a wonderful restaurant and the pool at Kidani Village is great. It's surrounded by an oasis of trees and is so relaxing. Make sure you make your way over to Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Jambo House as well. You will find more great dining and the Zawadi Marketplace, which is one of my favorite Resort hotel shops at Walt Disney World Resort.
Thanks so much for your question and enjoy every magical moment of your vacation!
