Building location for Poly concierge?

[cstrong]

We are considering staying at the Poly and upgrading to concierage. We are more likely to stay there, however, if the concierage rooms are in a central location because we have two little ones. Right now we have reservations at the WL which we like because the resort isn't that big so it isn't too long of a hike to go anywhere.

I would appreciate hearing about anyone's experiences!

There are two buildings which house concierge at the Polynesian. The concierge lounge and desk are in the Hawaii building, as well as most of the concierge rooms. There are suites in the Tonga building which also get concierge services. But unless you book a suite, you'll be in the Hawaii building.

Although not the closest to the main building, Hawaii offers wonderful views and is the closest to both pools. It is no more than a two or three minute walk from there to the main building, the laundry, or Captain Cooks.

There are no rooms in the main building at the Polynesian.

With two little ones I highly recommend Polynesian Concierge. It's very convenient and there's NO guessing at to where your room will be located. You are assured a room in Hawaii ... which is very close to the pool, beach and only a short distance to the main bldg where you will get the monorail. Also, the staff at the concierge lounge is very good with children's likes/dislikes. There's always something for them to enjoy. Also, you can use the strollers provided at the building. You will also have a small refrigerator in your room at no extra charge.

If you get a lagoon view the view from your room is the Best at Disney ... a direct view of the castle ... along with the Grand Floridian and the Contemporary. Very enjoyable.

Hope that helps.

Thanks so much for the advice! Now I just have to convince my husband that it is worth the extra cost!
