Getting from Epcot to Polynesian

[UGAFan0829]

I know this may sound like a dumb question to some of you, but is it possible to take the Monorail from Epcot to the Poly? (To get to dinner at 'Ohana of course!)
Also, how long should I allow ourselves to get there. We have a 5:20 ADR, so if we leave Epcot by 4:30, would that give us enough time?
TIA!

Yes, you can take the Epcot monorail to the Transportation & Ticket Center (TTC).

Once at TTC, you can transfer to the "Resort Line" which takes guests to the Polynesian and Contemporary resorts, as well as the Grand Floridian.

Based on your schedule (barring extraordinary circumstances), you should make it to dinner on time...

Poly is the first stop once you take the Resort Monorail at the TTC. I allowed at least 30 minutes from Epcot the Poly on the Monorail. 4:30 should be fine for your 5:20 reservation. But you will not be too early. You should not be late, but you won't be all that early either.

We stayed at the Poly for a week and found that it was quicker to walk from the TTC to the main house than to wait for the monorail to come around the resort loop again. It's a really pretty walk. Try it!

walking from TTC to the Polyn is great - but less you know where you are going - you can get lost.

so either take a map

you want the Great Ceremonial house - GCH - 'ohana is on the 2nd floor -

if you transfer to the resort monrail - it lets you off on the 2nd floor.

Normally I would say walking to the Polynesian is faster because there is always the chance you could be waiting for the Resort Monorail to arrive. However since the OP has an ADR for Ohana taking the Monorail is not a bad idea because as it was mentioned before Ohana is located on the 2nd floor of the Great Ceremonial house, which is also where Ohana is located.
