Which would you choose?
A friend of mine whose a single mom to two little girls is planning a trip with these two hotels as her options. I showed her the hotels online and she loved them both, but I was think that transporation may be easier at WL.
Which would you recommend?

AKL I think the girls would love seeing the animals. Having stayed there I didn't mind the ride to parks. In the morning it gives you time to settke down after a rushing to get ready and in the evening time to wind down.

They're both gorgeous and my kids would have loved both when they were little, but I'd think AKL for the overall atmosphere. I remember hearing from someone on here- I think it was Bobbi- about all the kids activities there too. And the travel distance isn't bad either.

I have stayed at both, but never with little kids. Personally I prefer WL and with the proximity to MK, it might be the better option, if the girls are small and she thinks she will spend more time there. Two options (bus or boat) to MK make it convenient.
That said, the animals at the AKL are awesome to see! And, the feel of the resort is great too. You are a bit farther from everything but the AK, so the bus rides will all be longer. AKL shares the bus now with the AKL villas, so that adds 2 stops to the trip before you leave the AKL property, but you don't share with another resort - which is the case when riding a bus from the WL. You either share with FW or another MK resort.
Hard choice, but either one will be great!

I personally love AKL above all, but we really enjoyed our stay at WL and the boat ride to MK (though it wasn't super fast). We've found AKL has excellent bus service. She can't go wrong with either one.

We've not stayed at either one. WL doesn't interest us although it is a lovely resort. We are staying in a one-bedroom villa at Kidani at the AKL in September and we can't wait; it's been a dream of ours since the resort opened.

Especially if her kids love animals than AKL is the way to go. The bus rides can be a little longer, but they are super easy to use and come fairly regularly.
