What is the difference between AKV Kilimanjaro Club Concierge and Savanna View?

We are thinking about staying in a 2 BR and was wondering what the difference was. Thanks!!!

Of the five total 2BR lockoffs (thus maximum possible ten rooms, five studios and five 1BR) that are club level, two are pool view and three are savanna view and the savanna view cannot be requested, nor is it very good. If you want savanna view get a savanna view room. If, instead, you want concierge services, including a lounge, daily cleaning and turn down service, and the ready assistance of concierge employees for anything, then do concierge.

Be aware that you need to reserve concierge rooms exactly 11 months out to have real chance of getting them and even then they can be difficult to get.

There are only a few concierge rooms and the views are either partial savanna or pool. The benefits are mainly for the use of the lounge which has food/beverage offerings throughout the day and the ability to book special events like the Sunrise Safari. That experience is fantastic! We have done it twice and considering it again for our upcoming trip in Sept.
I actually got lucky with the waitlist for concierge and got 2 additional nights!

One of the Club Level 2BR lockoffs has a roll-in shower instead of a whirlpool tub in the master bathroom. When we splurge on a 1BR, one of the reasons is because we want the whirlpool tub but if you book a 1BR or 2BR Concierge room, you have a 20% chance of ending up in the room without one.

Thanks, everyone! We are more interested in the views for the kids, so I think we'll try to book a savanna view.
