Poly-last minute longhouse change help!

[peaches0313]

We check into the Poly soon and I have had balcony and Fiji as my online check-in requests for quite some time and after much research. One reason was to be far away from the Oasis pool construction, which is now complete. Now I am wondering if I should modify my requests to balcony and Samoa? My concern is we arrive late to the resort--likely close to 7:30/ 8 pm. I know Samoa is highly sought after, so if I switch my request to Samoa, and we get there so late and its filled they will just place us wherever?! We have standard view booked and Yes, we know requests are not guaranteed-- thanks for any insight

Everyone asks for Samoa.

It's not so much a thing of "get there late," but that by default not every request will be met when more people request something. You might get Samoa second floor, you might get a patio elsewhere, you might get 2nd floor elsewhere. Rooms are scheduled days in advance, and not when you arrive.

I'd stick with what's absolutely most important. Is it building, or having a balcony?

It's probably more important that we have a balcony (or patio). Just don't want 2nd floor with either. I think I will just leave my request alone and hope for the best! Since everyone asks for Samoa..

i would never choose Samoa over Fiji

A patio is Niue might be a good choice, too!
