Jambo, Elizabeth! I'm so happy to welcome you to planDisney!
You're getting SO close to your Walt Disney World vacation! Princess Tiana would say, "You're almost there!" And to make things even more amazing, you'll be staying at the breathtaking
Animal Kingdom Lodge. What an incredible experience that will be! From the moment you step into the grand lobby and catch a glimpse of the stunning savanna views, you'll know you're in for something truly special!
I totally get your curiosity about all things coffee – it's an important part of any magical morning! One of my personal favorite things I love when staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge is brewing a fresh cup right in my room and heading out to the balcony. There's something so peaceful about sipping coffee while watching the animals wander across the savanna.
In your room, you'll be treated to Joffrey's coffee packets – and let me tell you, they're absolutely divine! If you find yourself running low during your stay, don't worry – just stop by the front desk. In my experience, Cast Members are always happy to provide more upon request.
When it comes to the coffee maker itself, standard rooms at Animal Kingdom Lodge come equipped with a Cuisinart single-serve brewer. However, if you happen to be staying in a Villa, you'll receive a full-size coffee pot.
Since you're staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge, I'd highly recommend making time to enjoy at least one (or both!) of the resort's amazing dining experiences. For breakfast,
Boma is a fantastic choice. It offers a vibrant buffet filled with an assortment of African-inspired dishes and classic breakfast favorites. It's a great way to fuel up before a fun-filled day in the parks.
For dinner, consider reserving a table at
Sanaa, located in
Kidani Village. This hidden gem serves up mouthwatering African and Indian-inspired cuisine, and one of the highlights is the Indian-style Bread Service – it's a must-try! Plus, you'll get to dine with a view of the savanna, where you might spot giraffes, zebras, and other animals roaming just outside the windows. It's a dining experience that combines unique flavors with unforgettable scenery, making it truly special.
Elizabeth, before I go, I have one last tip for you – be sure to grab some Zebra Domes from
The Mara. I personally love picking up a few to bring back to my room for a late-night treat! Trust me, they're worth it! Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney!
Have a WILD time!
