Anyone ever stay in the Jambo House villas at AKL?

[sleepybear]

We're non-DVC members but were able to book a studio villa at Jambo House with a savannah view. Could anyone here tell me what's different about staying in a villa vs. staying in a regular room? I know there's slightly more room because it's a queen bed and daybed instead of two queen beds. But I was wondering what floors, views. etc. are the standard for the villas.

We spent 7 nights in a DVC savanna view studio last month, then tacked on 2 nights in a regular room. (we're not DVC members, either) All of the DVC units are on the 5th floor of Jambo House, so you know what floor you will be on. We were on the Kudu Trail with a view of the Arusha savanna. It was awesome. The studio was quite a bit bigger than the regular room we spent the last 2 nights in. It also had a kitchenette, which was great. There was a sink, counter area, microwave, toaster, coffee pot and fridge. All the regular room had was a fridge, and no extra counter space. The decor was basically the same, but the villa was in much better condition and had tile in the bathroom area, as opposed to carpet in the regular room. You'll love it!
