Accommodations Review:

I loved how dark and cozy this lodge felt. The smells, and constant music made us feel so far away from the real world. The rooms are a bit small, but not a problem. The bathrooms in the room could definitely have been bigger, but I am now in love with this place.

Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?

We are animal lovers, and wanted to stay at the newest resort. This is now the only place we will stay. LOVE IT!!!!

Room # and Location Description:

3214, Savannah view, lobby level

Room Location Pros & Cons:

Loved being on the lobby level

Check-In / Check-Out Comments:

Very quick check in/out

WDW Transportation Comments:

We never had to wait for a bus more than 3-5 minutes, and CM's were there to hand out maps to whatever park we were visiting that day.

Restaurant / Lounge Review:

The Mara was our mainstay for most of our trip, but we did enjoy a Boma breakfast on our last morning. Terrific food, great service.

Pool Description / Comments:

My 5 yr old loved the pool, and there were always tons of lifeguards so I felt very safe with her being there. It was immaculate, and plenty of room. I loved the fact that there were towels already poolside, and the bathrooms were as nice as the ones in our room, equipped with showers, blow-dryers, shampoo, and beautiful music. Each stall had it's own African sconce lighting!!

What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This Resort?

If you love nature, and a dark cozy atmosphere, you will like this lodge.

Other Comments:

I literally cried when the CM was loading up our truck to leave!! I didn't want to go....
