Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

[tarak]

Anybody.

I plan to check out Trader Sam's at least once during our stay, and we'll be at the WL. The potential view from the garden side of Hawaii just had me too spooked for August. But I still want to see the resort and try a few of the specialty drinks.

With the mess outside garden view Hawaii right now, do we think a garden view club level in November will be ok?

So excited! I arrive in 20 days!!!!! Haven't been a guest of the poly for awhile due to construction, but I am looking forward to staying in a studio for 2 nights and then a bungalow for 2 nights!!!

I was bummed when I heard about this year's meet but I did make it to last year's meet which was great and a hoot...prepare yourself for some laughs! Really a great bunch!

Looking forward to it. I did get to meet ninja & Janet last time at GF, after the big meet (which I was in Univ during).

Awwww No Poly bunch??

Awwww No Poly bunch??

I would love to have a meet at the Poly, if it works out. We had a huge dismeet at the BC/YC last August and it was really wonderful to meet in person those folks we'd only met on the boards here.

There are bathrooms in the pool area.

Can you leave your luggage somewhere before the bus picks you up for the airport?

If you use the Resort Airline Check-in for checked bags, they will take those.

For carry-on bags, you can leave them with bell services. They'll give you a ticket which you'll use to collect them before your MDE pickup time. Be sure to allow for 30 minutes to collect your carry-on bags from bell services to be safe.

There's bathrooms by the pool. I stayed during January my first time, and there was a cold snap :-( so didn't use pool much. I can't remember what type of facility they have. But GF & AKL have a change room with showers by pool. Maybe someone will know if Poly does too!

I'll be available for a meet up 8/22-8/28. Then my schedule gets a bit crazy! Maybe a drink at Trader Sams or by pool! We usually take a mid day break back at pool.

Just sharing some excitement...

The kids don't know yet but I plan on telling them around June 20th or so. About 67 days out.

They think I'm taking them next year and they are a bit sad since they've been asking since last year to go but looking forward to 2016!

I'm going to be ordering this:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/157527172/disney-countdown-blocks?ref=favs_view_1

I'm going to wrap it and have them open and create the numbers "367." They'll be so happy and say "yay we are going in August next year!" Then I'll tell them to remove the 3...I had it wrong....it's really 67 days. Maybe corny but I know they'll love it!

Aloha! I just moved our Oct res from GF to Poly, and I'm really excited!!!

Can I please get some assistance with a room request? We want Aotearoa, 1st or 3td floor, and any view will due as long as its not a parking lot. Anything else I should note for that building?

The Lava/Volcano pool was closed in January. So that would have been the East (quiet) pool, which does not have a bathroom.

That building faces either the monorail or Fiji/marina.

Im not sure it would be my pick for theme park view, but standard view would be nice. No parking lot views there. One of the furthest from TTC but close to marina, pool and GCH.

Thank you!
