Anyone ever stay there? Thoughts?

AKV is a beautiful resort - its truly amazing to go outside the resort building and see animals (or even see them from your balcony). Jiko is also a great dining location and many people rave about Boma as well but the foot there seemed a little more adventurous than we're used to.
There were two drawbacks to the resort though. One is that the way the buildings are setup (think like a giant horseshoe shape) you could potentially have a very long walk from the elevator to the room. The second is that its a long bus ride to things - AKV is one of the least expensive of the vacation club villas because its far away from the parks.
edit to add - Kidani Village is its own separate hotel building at the resort - you'll need to take an internal bus (unless you have a car) to get to the main resort building with the restaurants.
Those things aside though the resort itself is incredible. The theming is top notch and the animal viewing is really cool.
