Well thanks to our Canadian Pooh Friends the Friday night offerings were all the same except no chicken, it was a crab ... I forget the name but it was it was in crispy shell and very tasty.

The lounge had no crowds , place was clean , people friendly. I did see bathing suits in the afternoon, but they grabbed and ran so wasn't bothersome. It may be me tomorrow since sun is finally coming out:)

Turndown service was nice. Dd had taken a nap and they remade bed and left chocolates on both beds, yum!

So far a 10+ , everything has been wonderful, worth every penny.

Really love the lounge space. So pretty and new to water. The decor is so poly!

Wanna be Ariel the Longboard Beer is still here! I got one and dd and I took a sip, ( or 2)yum!

Oh ya, I left our toothbrushes at CSR and called for some at concierge.i swear,I told dd to listen for door because I was going to sit in lounge while she finished her hair and I passed the person delivering them! Must have been 2 minutes from when I called. :goodvibes

For those of you planning, enjoy the waiting, soon you will be here too:)

Thanks for the info. We are getting so close to our stay now. Just need to get through some really tough weeks ahead. (My MIL is having a heart valve replacement and bypass surgery this morning). We are really going to need that club level stay!

Sending positive thoughts your way - We'll be there in 3 weeks too - Can't wait
 
Dd and I always do rope drops when traveling alone but we slept til 8am, hit the CsR business club lounge, bussed it to MK and took monorail to poly at 1130 to check in. We got our 3rd floor room request. Our Concierge Sam ( swear he said "Sam your super awesome man) was friendly and efficient so soon in our room.

First we checked out lounge area. WOW WOW WOW!! The view and the furnishings makes you want to stay forever!

We checked our room and the green is NOT too green , very cheerful. The bath looks crisp and clean.

Went to Kona Cafe for lunch then back to lounge to check it out.

I asked for a glass of wine and chatted with a family from the UK. The CM's cleaned up after them and brought more drinks like we were in a bar. I did not get the same service. I asked where to put my glass when done and was pointed to the appropriate area. Some people just don't get it.

Anyways I asked for water for dd and was given one for our room. While I was there the floor got vacuumed with one of those little quick broom things. Place was immaculate and just so pretty. I just had coffee and our luggage fom CSR arrived at 245. I am going to change and get a drink and sit in the lounge while lazy head still sleeps:rotfl2:. Is she sleeping beauty, or princess and the pea??? Why old mom not tired an a 18 is exhausted:confused3

Love the poly, glad I splurged with my dd 18 . I see moms with kids on laps and think "where did the time go???" I will try to check in tomorrow.

Thanks for the report.....sounds like you're having a great time :goodvibes. I'm with you on "where did the time go". We have 2 DSs that are 18 and (going to be) 20 and it seems like they just 6 & 8, at which time we took our first Disney trip......time really does fly :(.

56 more days until we hear "Aloha!"

You will be in tropical paradise before you know it :cloud9:.

Thank you! That's good to hear.

You're welcome....you will have a great time :goodvibes.

Glad to hear great things about the cleaniness of the lounge :thumbsup2. Getting more excited every day for our upcoming stay in December :goodvibes.

Sending good thoughts for your MIL's surgery. Enjoy your CL stay :wizard:.

We'll be there in 3 weeks too - Can't wait

Three weeks will go fast.....have a great trip :cool1:.
 
Woo hoo! 60 days out! Just completed online check in! :banana:

Funny thing, I wasn't even thinking about our trip for weeks, too much going on. In fact, I suffered a concussion and can't really think clearly at all. I'm a bit derpy. (Think Dory.) I just randomly thought, hum..........wonder if we are 60 days out yet? And it just happened to be! :woohoo:

Can't wait!!!! :cloud9:

Hope I have my brain back by then.

So dh is running the TOT 10 miler and when I called to get rates they were able to give me a great deal for the Poly, so we are booked from 10/3-10/8. The Poly was never on my radar, but now the more I think about it, the more I get excited.


Just had to share my excitement. I can't wait.
 
I can't believe how fast the time flew by...only 3 more weeks til our 1st stay at POLY. Sooo excited now :goodvibes Keep telling DH he is going to love, love, love the POLY ! Right now he's still kind of disappointed I switched from POR to POLY LV...cannot wait until he sees that I didn't make a mistake :thumbsup2
 
Really am surprised how uncrowned lounge is. We slept in again and did breakfast at 845am. There were at least 6 tables and all of upstairs still available.

The water is now in a dispenser like the juice and milk comes in. They give you a carafe of water from the back room to take with you if needed.

Think last nights offering was crab Ragoon?

Breakfast looked similar to past. Choice of croissant or cinnamon roll or bagels.

If you like the special punch I did merlot with pog juice on ice and took to beach:cool1:

At 3pm our room not cleaned:(. Tracked down someone in hall for towels and posting this and now nap time.

Irv in the lounge is part time but so nice. Elderly gentle man with silver hair. Loves his job:thumbsup2

Last requests in now, I depart at 3am on Monday.

Club level is just so nice.. Watched wishes and had wine and desserts. Comfy chairs too.

If you are nice and sincere they love you at the lounge. Dd18 was not happy when I called her to the food area :confused3 then CM told us of new universal studios Harry Potter ride . That will be like gringotts! A roller coaster awesome!

Tonight was chicken skewers, spring rolls and edamame salad ( that was so good I had 2)

1109'pm in bed and happy, so.... What are you waiting for???


You will love the poly :)
 
Just popping in to join the fun. We've just booked our first trip to Poly. We're very excited. We've stay CR, AKL, WL and BWI, but we've yet to venture of to Poly except for dinners.
 
135 days until we enter the world of paradise --- the Poly! I love hearing all the wonderful stories and live reports. This is our first Poly stay. It seems so far away, but will be here before we know it! Can't wait! :yay:
 
We are getting so excited about our first Poly stay, next milestone is our 60 day check-in in a couple of weeks. Love seeing all the updates on the board as it makes it even more thrilling!
