We returned from the Polynesian on Friday, 3/8 We stayed for 7 days/6 nights, Tokelau Room # 1914(Corner room by the the beach, Ground Floor, Facing GF) The Volcano Pool was open the entire time, though it wasn't until Tuesday that I actually saw it crowded due to the cold weather. Thoughts: The construction around the resort was a bit of a hassle, though it didn't stop us from enjoying our stay. To get to Tokelau, we either had to walk down to the pathway by the beach or go to the front of the GCH to get to our room. Certain days though, we were able to cut through by Samoa, but not once during our stay could you cut through where Hawaii starts. The noise did not bother us at all. I was able to see the construction at Hawaii & Samoa. Hawaii was coming along nicely! The decor did change. The top half of the walls looked like a mint green. The Bedding and Furniture looked almost Cream Colored with a green "Leaves" imprint on it. I did see them bringing in new beds and also new toilets to be installed. As many of you are...I am (Im)patiently waiting for the pictures!!! I found it bizarre one night walking back to my room that all of Hawaii's 2nd floor TVs were on around 11pm I can say that I am glad to see the longhouses being redone. I stayed in Hawaii last year and Samoa the year prior and I thought our room was great. Tokelau,however, was definitely worn. Our toilet paper roll holder was falling off the wall from one of the screws being rusted, their were marks and scuffs on the walls and the back of the door to leave. The view was very nice and I also enjoyed being able to walk out of the patio with or without my double stroller for my son's. We had some tiki torches out front of our room which looked beautiful at night while sitting on the patio while the kiddies slept. I just wish their was also a speaker there to hear the hawaiian music playing. We ate at both "Ohana dinner and Kona Cafe Dinner along with 2 late night sushi meals at Kona Island. ALL WERE AMAZING!!!! I am so saddened that we are back for the fact that those days flew by!!! Now if only I can convince my husband for us to go back for the end of the F&W and the beginning of MVMCP
