They appear to be included in the surveyors' drawings that show the outline of AKV. But other than thatIs this area where they are located only going to be DVC?

As Lisa S said, they are include in the area leased by DVD on the 5th floor. Although, I supose they could just continue to give them to CRO to rent out.
Hi all of you AKV fans! We just returned a couple of weeks ago from a trip to SSR. My wife and I had seen the on line pictures of the AKV models and were really not that impressed. We felt that the leopard skin carpeting and funky beadspread made the place look more lika a Pimps apartment than a DVC unit. However, when we saw the models in person, we were blown away. The on line photos really do not do it justice. Add our first ever trip to AKL, and we are hooked. We are looking forward to trying out the resort in a couple of years. I think it will be a great "Fully theamed" addition to DVC. (Unlike the untheamed Miami condo style Contemporary DVC on the horizon)
I thought the models were very impressive, too. Loved those tiles and the whole master bathroom for that matter.
However, I do think the woven material on the couch in the LR is going to be one big headache for mousekeeping if that is the final choice. I can just imagine pb&j, cereal, etc getting caught in the weave. It is very attractive though.
Well, I tried to watch the DVD and it kept skipping. Ugh. We didn't inquire about Animal Kingdom. It must be a mailer that everyone will get eventually.
I think I saw a few pages back that other people had received the mailing. The new interactive water play area in the literature looks interesting.
Maybe I'll give the DVD another try.
Take a look at this thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1531425I was looking at the point values for different views at the AKV and there are several. can someone tell me the difference between standard and value view? Many thanks!
I agree with you on both points! We too thought the units were MUCH more impressive in person than any pictures we have ever seen of them. The sunrise tiles in the bathroom were incredible! I too have no interest in the CRV either. BTW, did you see the hidden Mickey's in the carpet? DH liked that!
Anyone know what the models hours are? Can we just go into take a look or do we have to go through a big discussion about buying? (we already bought it at 200 points but it would be nice to see it when we go down this October.
We were at Downtown Disney walking around one afternoon while my husband was down there for a conference, and we took a stroll over to SSR and asked if we could see the models and within 15 minutes someone gave us a tour (we already owned at SSR, but were intested in seeing AKV). We did not meet with our guide. The tour guide was a very nice intern. The models are beautiful! We fell in love and added on 50 AKV points (wish we could have done more, but don't really need them!). Probably isn't a bad idea to give DVC a call, but they were so accomodating with us.
