Jambo, Robert!
Asante Sana (that means "thank you very much" in Swahili) for trekking by planDisney with your question. Our family loves the
Disney Vacation Club Deluxe Studios and Villas at Disney's Animal Kingdom Resort - Kidani Village and at Jambo House. It reminds us so much of a safari our family took to Kenya and Tanzania many years ago. The immersive Disney Resorts transport us to a whole new world, each time we visit.
Robert, I double-checked with Disney Vacation Club. At this time, there has not been an official announcement regarding refurbishments at
Animal Kingdom Lodge for any of the Disney Vacation Club rooms. Typically, there will be information posted on the Resort page on the Walt Disney World website or on the Disney Vacation Club website on the Resort search page alerting Guests that work is underway. Also, the
Disney Parks Blog is another source for anything new taking place at the Disney Resorts.
I do suggest checking back on each website periodically to check for updates if this is a concern of yours when booking your next stay. We have stayed at different Resorts during refurbishments. And, while Guests may hear or see some construction during daytime hours, it has never been disruptive, and the Resorts do a great job to ensure Guests are not inconvenienced by any refurbishment work.
I hope this helps you, Robert. If you have any further Disney vacation questions, trek back here and I'll be so happy to help you!
Magically Yours,
Keri
