We just got back from the best week of our life staying at the Poly (Tokelau). We've travelled many places around the world and both my husband and I agreed that our week in WDW was the most enjoyable trip yet. Our kids DD4 and DS1 LOVED the Poly and have become just as obsessed as we are. We became completely spoiled and it will be hard to ever stay anywhere else. Actually, there was a bounceback offer in our room so I booked us a week at the end of Sept. Hopefully we won't all melt to death in that weather.
For all those who wonder how fast you can actually get from MK to poly, one evening we made it from the Tea Cups ride to the inside of our room in 15 minutes!!!! Granted we were walking quickly with strollers, but still, 15 minutes!!
What's with the size of the beds at the Poly? All week long we kept saying "are you sure theses aren't king beds?" They were huge and so comfy. So awesome. Prior to arriving we weren't sure where our 22 month old was going to sleep as he's out of a crib at home (he sleeps on a mattress on the floor). When we arrived at the Poly, my husband had the brilliant idea of putting the 2 chairs together to create a long and semi enclosed bed. It was great. WE pushed the "bed" up against our bed and put all of the extra pillows and shams stacked on the floor on the other side of his "bed". The chair cushions were really firm and my DS slept throught the night every night and feel asleep within 5 minutes each night. If only it would be this way at home. I have lots more to add about the poly, but my DD is poking at me to play Disney charades so I'll have to post more later.
