Jambo from Kidani Village in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge!
This week we headed to Walt Disney World’s wildest resort to see what’s new and what’s happening. We decided to visit Kidani Village, the DVC resort area, to check out the pool and take in the savanna view!
Animal Kingdom Lodge – Kidani Village Food Update
Johari Treasures
The gift shop is home to all sorts of resort keepsakes. We definitely had our eye on a particular goodie that’s only sold at Animal Kingdom Lodge. We had to make sure that Zebra Domes were still available to pick up. To our delight, the gift shop is still selling one of our favorite sweet snacks!
Maji Pool Bar
The pool bar at Kidani Village reopened with the rest of the resort in June. We noticed the bar was trying out a few new menu items. The Cast Member told us the Roast Turkey Sandwich and Tuna Salad Pita Platter are available on a trial basis. If all goes well, the two entrees will become permanent residents of the pool bar!
Animal Kingdom Lodge – Kidani Village Merchandise Update
Johari Treasures
We spotted a few items that are worth noting for future visitors of Kidani Village! The fur-ociously awesome Animal Kingdom Lodge mug comes decorated in several animal prints.
The mug is $19.99 and we think it compliments the new Animal Print Dooney & Bourke collection nicely. Also, did you notice the giraffe handle??
We also spotted the new Oliver and Company pin here. We’ve seen this pin in various other gift shops around Disney World and we’re digging the throwback vibes!
In need of hand sanitizer? We spotted a ton at the gift shop…
…and some reusable masks for sale!
P.S. We didn’t spot any giraffes, zebras, or any other animals on the savanna today. Hopefully, they were just taken inside for some lunch and relaxation!
That’s all for Animal Kingdom Lodge today! We’ll be back real soon for more food, fun, and frolicking in the savanna!

Kate Harris says
Is there any chance that Boma will open soon?
DFB Sarah says
Kate, no word on this, as far as I’ve heard.
Cindy says
What food choices (besides Sanaa) are available at Kidani Village? Without Boma or the Mara at Jambo House, I’m not sure if there are quick / counter service options.
DFB Sarah says
Cindy, Sanaa is offering a Quick Service breakfast, and the Lounge is open at Sanaa as well. (Don’t forget, you can do Table Service to Go there, too!) Maji Pool Bar is the only other spot serving up food at Kidani Village.
