We own at AKL, we have only stayed at Jambo in 1 bedroom or studio. Looking ahead we are considering Kidani for a stay next year. Is it a long walk to Jambo? I thought I head Kidani does not have a quick service. What are some downfalls and positives to Kidani, we are looking for a bigger family trip in a two bedroom.

I’ve walked it before and didn’t remember being too bad. I just googled it and apparently it’s around a 10 minute walk. I think there was a shuttle in between the two.

While Kidani doesn't have a QS, at breakfast time Sanaa acts like a QS. Delicious breakfast that you can dine in and see some of the animals out the window or take back to your room.

Kidani just reburbished all their rooms and their are stunning. Yes, the walk is about 10 minutes, I did it last September during the morning heat. It's not too bad, just know it's not next door. I've never had any trouble jumping on the shuttle from Jambo to Kidani seems always right there when I need it.

Kidani is quieter than Jambo in my opinion and I like the pool better. Both savanna views are spectacular, not sure I could choose from one to the other.

We prefer kidani due to better savanna views, more relaxed lobby, and the pool is our favorite. QS at sanaa is one of our favorites and the walk isn't terrible.
