Never been to AKL but I know that the QS is located in Jambo house and house can either walk or take the shuttle. How long exactly is the walk? We stayed at AoA last time in the LM rooms and I know people complain about that walk but we had no problem with it. We've had similar walks at POR. It is comparable to the walk from the main building to the LM rooms? Farther? With three kids we often grab food at the resort, even if it's just a snack in the evening, trying to decide how much of a pain it really is.
