I wish they would. I guess it’s because they don’t really care.
World of difference (at least understanding that they are next door to each other with similar themeing). The 1BRs and 2BRs at Kidani have an 'extra' bathroom and the parking is more or less directly under your villa. Jambo is home to the Grand Hall and all the dining except for Sanaa and there is a parking lot. I find the pools to be more or less equal but there are those who prefer the ones at Jambo...particularly for small children.
Great info. Thanks.
I am sure the DVC, and other timeshare companies, can detect bot type traffic and send cease and desist letters. These are usually violations of the website terms of use. If someone continues to abuse the use of the site with bots then they can make the account call in only.
I mean DVC rental store is as egregious about it as you can possibly be. They advertise everywhere. They buy contracts, strip them by renting all the points on spec rentals, likely using bots,at extreme markups, and then resell them. So far, Disney doesn’t seem to care.
Do they buy contracts? I thought they only acted as a broker for sellers and also rent points that other owners own. I didn't think they bought and stripped contracts. One would think if something is stripped, they should be reimbursing maintenance fees for use years that aren't available.
They have an instant sale feature where they will buy your contract (at below market rates). There were also a few times where disboards posters figured out that they were the undisclosed seller via an LLC (I can't find the thread now) in a transaction where they were also acting as the buyer's agent, which itself seems somewhat icky even if it doesn't technically violate the law. Then there's just the anecdotal evidence of the sheer number of stripped contracts they were selling at one point relative to other resellers (I think this has calmed down a bit).
I agree about World of DVC. They strip all the points they can, rent, and resell. You just have to look at their listings to see evidence. Also pretty well documented on DISboard, but in round about ways because they are big advertisers on that forum and the DISmods use the ban hammer at will on perceived transgressions. I don't go on as much as I used to because the heavy censorship bothers me.
Don't they own the Dis?
No. I don't know the ownership now, but DisBoards was owned by some aspect under Pete Werner. He was also a part owner of Dreams Unlimited Travel. World of DVC owns DVC Resale Market and sponsored the Dis DVC content such as DVC Fan podcast and YouTube videos. At the time DVC Fan was part of Dis. When all the sheite when down with Pete, World of DVC bought DVC Fan.
No the travel agency Dreams Unlimited owns DIS forums. One of the travel agency owners got in trouble and just try to mention this public info there.
I was going to mention the same think. No good view from the 6th floor. You book that for the access to the lounge.
I agree. I won’t even try to book Jambo because of that bathroom setup. Fortunately, Kidani always seems to have availability when we want it. And DH loves taking the second bathroom in the Kidani 1BR as his own!
Cool! Jambo is a lot of fun and better for that Animal Kingdom Lodge experience. I’m sure that you will have a wonderful time!
I should have listened. Wife hated that bathtub setup (you literally need to climb over) and the lack of a second bath (we have to compete for one bath) and she said she will never come back!
Yes, you have a better choice at Kidani! The 1BR has two full baths, the primary bath is huge and has a walk in shower as well as a tub, and the 2nd bath has a tub/shower. Given how easy it is to travel from Kidani to Jambo (via shuttle from front of resort or via park and DS buses, not to mention walking), there’s no contest for us between Kidani and Jambo when we want to stay at AKV in a 1BR or larger!I should have listened. Wife hated that bathtub setup (you literally need to climb over) and the lack of a second bath (we have to compete for one bath) and she said she will never come back!
I think it’s a bit unfair but sure we have better choices elsewhere!
For the second half of the trip we are staying at Marriott Grande Vista. Everyone is super happy! The cost for 2-bed is about 1/4 of 1-bed at AKV. The Disney premium is too steep and Marriott beats! Lol.
