Select Disney World resorts have reopened this week. And recently, Disney shared the reopening dates of a few more Disney hotels that will open at a later date.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
But we noticed one of the resorts that had been previously listed has now mysteriously vanished!
Disney World shared with us its grand reopening schedule for most of the resorts over the weekend (note: some resorts’ reopenings have not been announced yet). On July 10th, Jambo House at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge was set to reopen along with Disney’s Pop Century Resort and Disney’s Contemporary Resort — right before Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom reopening on July 11th.

But as you can see, Disney World’s website has been updated today, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge is no longer listed under July 10th!

Does this mean Disney World changed its mind about reopening Jambo House on July 10th? We’ll have to wait and see since Disney hasn’t made an official announcement on the matter and they could just as easily add Jambo House right back to the list! But for now, it looks like Jambo House will not be reopening on July 10th. We’ll continue to monitor this situation and let you know what develops!

I’m to be staying at Jamba House Aug 7. I received a confirm your vacation email last night at 8:00PM- maybe they are waiting to see responses? The confirmation stated someone would be in contact with me regarding availability.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Elizabeth.
I couldn’t book a room at Jambo House for my January 2021 trip 🙁 No matter how I changed my dates around it kept saying “no availability “. I thought that was strange since I booked the day reservations were made available for 2021. I thought maybe it had something to do with them being uncertain as to when they’d be opening AKL… although Kidani Village had availability. So who knows.
IS there a quick service food option for people staying at Kidani at the end of July if Jambo is not opening?
Yley, Animal Kingdom Lodge wasn’t released when the 2021 vacation packages went on sale, unfortunately.
Just got off the phone with Disney since I have an existing reservation for September at AKL Jambo – the rep said that the Major League Soccer is using Jambo as their “bubble” until further notice. So that’s why they don’t have a definitive date that they will allow rescheduling. He said people who are there are being moved but there are zero incoming reservations allowed.
