Dinner at Ohana, leave car at Poly?

[sheila <3 WDW]

Our arrival night dinner is hopefully going to be Ohana. We want to get an ADR for 6 pm, then head to MK for Wishes/MSEP (assuming times will be 9 and 10:15 pm like 2014). Would we be able to leave our car at Poly or would we have to park at TTC? We will be staying at POFQ hopefully (haven't booked yet but will definitely be on site) so we aren't just trying to avoid paying for parking.

Your supposed to only have 3 hours, but if it is a low season i doubt you will have problems especially as a disney resort guest

You're not supposed to park at a resort for more than 3 hours.

I would just park at the TTC and walk to the Poly

Thanks! I couldn't remember what the time limit was. We are going Christmas week, so definitely not low season. First day 12/20.

Agreed. Once you get to the front of the TTC via tram or walking, it's about a 5-minute walk along a very easily found walking path to the Poly.

On this date last year we were enjoying our last night and wanted to eat at Captain Cook's at Poly and check out the newly renovated lobby. We were turned away at the parking lot so we parked at the TTC and walked the path. It was quick and easy. So I would definitely count on them holding to the 3 hour parking allowance.

I wouldn't even try. Christmas week, they may not let you park at the Polly, even with an ADR.

If you are getting there in the evening, they usually have the villains side open. I would go to the left like you were exiting and then turn into the hero's side. Often people who got there early are leaving/gone and plenty of parking is open up near the front so you don't have to take the tram. There is a path on that side that goes to the polly so you don't even need to cut through the TTC. Of course that week could be different. It is a lot busier.

If they do let you park, you can also just stay at the polly to watch the fireworks but then miss the parade and still be out in 3 hours.

If they have valet parking, you're allowed to do that....
