For the Poly experts out there...

It is our 1st stay at the Poly and I have a few questions about it and was hoping someone could help:

1. For Dinner at Ohanna's... when are the coconut races? We have a 5:00p.m. ressie... will we still see it?

2. How much is internet access?

3. How do you suggest traveling to/from the Poly to Hollywood Studios, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon... we will have our car... should we take it or use the buses? (at times, we'll have smaller children with us/stroller)

As always... thanks so much for your help!

Ahem...I consider myself a Polynesian connoisseur

1. Coconut races are throughout the dinner, we had 3 last trip (during the same meal).

2. Internet access is 9.99/day

3. Use your car....trust me on this. Bus service is HORRIBLE b/c it is shared with GF/Contemporary and Polynesian....or at least it used to be. We started using our car about 5 years ago b/c of this and never looked back.

The coconut races are throughout the whole dinner. As stated earlier you may see it more then once depending on ressie's. We never use the internet while at the resort so I could'nt tell you. But as far as the buses go they deffinately can be hit and miss. Just depends on what time of the year your going. We have never really had a problem with them, and we stay at the Poly often. Although our kids are older and no strollers are needed. They deffinately get pretty full though during peak seasons and makes it tough for those needing the extra room.

ITA! We always stay at the Poly and do NOT like the bus service.
We fly down and use a towncar service to get to the resort so we don't have a car during the week so when we go to BB, TL, DHS or DTD we always take a cab.
