Welcome Home Mary!
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with such an excellent question! It sounds like you have discovered the “pixie-dusted” way to experience the Walt Disney World Resorts, and I love that you are already planning your next Club Level stay. I have had the pleasure of staying Club Level at both
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and
Disney’s Beach Club Resort, and they were both fantastic stays! I think either one would be perfect for your next stop on the Club Level Express!
The Kilimanjaro Lounge is on the sixth floor of Jambo House at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. Your MagicBand gives you exclusive access to the level which offers sweeping views of the hotel lobby out to the savanna. You'll have a birds-eye view of the magnificent hoofed animals that call the Resort home. The pleasure of the wildlife along with some of the most delicious food (think the kitchens of
Sanaa and Boma!) of any of the Club Lounges on property make this one of my top choices for your next stay.
Since you are staying at a Monorail Resort this Fall, it might be fun to stay at an Epcot Resort next time around! Stone Harbor Club at Disney’s Beach Club Resort is tops in terms of customer service, delicious food, and perfect location. I cannot say enough good things about the wonderful Cast Members who staff the Club! When we stayed, we took full advantage of the light meals available in the Lounge and then would head by boat to Disney’s Hollywood Studios or walk to Epcot. Super convenient!
Mary, I do not doubt that you will have a delightful stay at either. Please come back and let us know which one you choose!
