Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

[Tikiman]

I so hope that's true! Anyone there now that can confirm?

Yes they allowed people to go on the beach during the show but beaches will remain closed after dark other than during fireworks it seems.

They have been showing on the turf right outside the back of the GCH for a while now and continue to be there.

I just found out about these bags last night. My credit card wished I hadn't! I am excited for the ones I ordered to come next week.

All checked in and got our request of Samoa! We are in love with the quiet pool; it's gorgeous!

Are kids allowed to bring pool toys to the resort pools? Just little things like squirt toys?

That's great news. We will be there in a couple of weeks and were very disappointed to hear that they were not allowing people on the beaches for Wishes. Thanks for the update Steve

can anyone give information about Lilo's clubhouse? How old do the kids have to be? How much is it? Anyone use it? My husband and I were thinking about doing it for one night when we want to go to Epcot

We've booked it for our upcoming trip next month, but have never used it in the past. From what I found out in my research, some kids mentioned that it was their favorite part of their trip. I know the kids must be between 3 and 12, it is a flat fee of $55/child, drop off time begins at 4:30, and they will provide dinner to the kids if they are there by 5:30. We made reservations as I heard that it can book up. One other thing to mention is that the children must be independent in the potty.

Has anyone that has checked in recently been offered or asked for an upgrade (not for free)?

Do rooms in Samoa have balconies? I'm assuming if they do, it would be on he 3rd floor. We stayed on the 2nd floor in May and I didn't see any, but was wondering if 3rd floor had them.

Hi all! Just back last night. Had a great 6 day trip. Beaches were closed until yesterday (of course right as we were checking out). They had CMs patrolling the beach night and day to keep people of the sand. They completed covering the rope "fence" with mesh yesterday and then opened the beach for lounging during the day. We watched the movies on the grassy area behind the Great Ceremonail House and next to Captain Cooks, it was actually quite nice. The quiet pool is amazing. So well done and the Oasis pool bar had awesome food(fish tacos were amazing).
Overall, it was a wonderful trip. We did have one day with limited water outages and power outages yesterday(they left signs in our room the night prior), it really did not impact us at all though. Security moved quite quickly at all four parks and wasn't too bad. The Poly is beautiful and relaxing and we are sad to be home

Here now and we love it!! Didn't get Fiji...ended up in Tuvalu but still got 3rd floor.
Here's a random pic...

Glad you're loving the Poly! Hope you continue to have a great time .

Awesome! Glad i am not the only one who wants that personable check-in experience! I think we will definitely skip the online check-in then. Thanks for all the responses!

Have a great trip .

Thanks for the offer. I'd say - anything and everything! Your room, room view, lobby, grounds, pools, monorail, beach, any work going on, etc.
Most importantly, HAVE FUN!

I agree!

What a great pic .

How cute! Thanks for sharing .

Glad your request for Samoa was met! Have a great time and enjoy the Poly .

My guess is they are not allowed, but I don't know for sure. Hopefully someone else will be able to give a definite answer .

Thanks for the info! Are they still roasting marshmallows or is that on hold? Thank you!!!

We have always brought squirt toys, diving rings, soft pool balls and pool noodles and it has never been an issue at any pool.

Does anyone know if Lilos has an open house time during the day? Kids say no but I'll bet if they saw it and looked around a bit, they'd change their minds.

 

[Sunnyside]

Does the bigger pool have shady areas? We'll be there in 2 weeks! Cannot wait!!
