Resort Thread Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT

I wouldn’t be surprised if they stop doing this.

I actually hope they do! Would be a good idea. Owners and guests need the spaces, it was always close to a full lot whenever we went to park, and that was before the PIT opened. And their lot is small so I imagine there is overflow into the regular Poly lot. And guests arriving to go to O'hana who need to park... Not sure why they even started to do that, it's a potential internet/vlogger "hack" to get free MK or even Epcot parking in the afternoon.

Thanks for the update! Parking is what concerns me, especially now that they allow parking for non-guests after 2pm to go to Wailulu. Be there in September, will be interesting to see where they are with construction by then.

Where did you see the information that Guests going to Wailulu Bar & Grill would be able to park? Is there an official source that we can confirm?

If this is nuts if confirmed since the obvious hack is to say you are going to Wailulu Bar & Grill, park, and enjoy MK or any of the other parks.

A lot of the vloggers and bloggers reported it, it may have even been on Disney's site. I remember Disney Food Blog posting. Let me look and see if I can find a link!

Edit: Here is a link to an article from All Ears, from May 2nd.

Thanks for the quick response. I don't count either of those source as official statement but just a data point of a rumor from some CM at the Poly. This is not going to end well now that they have starting clearing the parking lot in front of the GCH, and valet moved over to grab other general guest parking spaces.

So they go from welcome 1-and-all to park for Waiilulu Bar and Grill, Tambu Lounge, or Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto on May 2nd, that parking will be allowed starting at 2 PM until closing! And on June 12th, Oh we are reducing parking spaces. this is nuts.

Does anyone know where the Mears bus picks up guests going to the airport? We've never used Mears, but I've got my daughter scheduled for a pick during our trip as she needs to fly home early.
