Can you still bring like a portable DVD player, games systems....etc to hook up?
Cuase I looked at some of you guys photos and I didn't see a plug in. Maybe it was just me.
I just looked at the picture of the tv and I don't see the plugs either, but I'm thinking that there may be a small panel on the bottom that opens to reveal the plugs. I'm just not sure! I *thought* there were input jacks, but now I just don't know. lol Hopefully someone who knows for sure will come along and give you a positive answer.
Good Morning,
So in your opinion do you think the dining plan is too much if you are staying Club Level? I am still going back and forth whether to book the quick service plan as I believe the Club Level Lounge offers so much!
We did the regular dining plan while staying club level, a couple of years ago. We enjoy sit-down restaurants, but between the appetizers, entree, dessert, etc, PLUS the food in the lounge, it really was a bit too much. Now, with the new quick service dining plan, it wouldn't be as much food, although it's still a LOT of food, in my opinion.
Look at it this way; in club level, you can count on having a continental breakfast each morning, then I think the new quick service plan includes 2 meals a day, right? You'd have lunch and dinner covered. So you'd have to decide whether you'd ALSO want to have the hot food offerings that the club level provides each evening, and whether that'd be too much or not. Of course, you don't have to partake of the food in the lounge, but it's there and is part of club level (and it always tastes fanstastic!). lol
Again, a tough decision, and a lot of it depends on your dining/eating style, and whether you think you'd want the 2 quick service meals each day or not.
So was the Luau that bad? My husband and kids are so looking forward to it - I really would rather save the money and not do it. Part of me wants to put my foot down and say we aren't going - but then the childish part of me wants to go so I can say "I told you so" when they don't like it!!!

I'm so bad.
Are you doing dinner at 'Ohana? With the ages that your kids are, I think they'd really enjoy that. I've never done the Luau; I just could never make myself book it, after reading so many so-so reviews about it, even though I really want to try it some day. I guess I'm as bad as you, regarding indecision about it.

LOL
HI Everyone!!!
It's very late (or early???). We just got back from one week at the POLY - club level. Amazing!!!! We were in the Hawaii building. I don't even know where to start.....the CMs in our building were awesome! Actually, we booked lagoon view for next August!!!
We had a few meals at Kona. Very good. Breakfast at Ohana's. Great character interaction. Did the Spirit of Aloha show....eh....I could take it or leave it. It was very hot at the 5:15. I would definitely recommend the later show when the temps are hot.
We got lucky weather wise....thank goodness. It was raining a lot today, the day we were leaving. We got caught in MK in a downpour, trying to get back to the resort. Resort monorail was not running. Of course, our clothes was soaked and our bags were already checked. But once again, the concierge staff took such good care of us once we got there. All was fine as soon as we were sitting in the club!!
We did not get to see Michael Phelps. We were in MK that day (night). We were shocked to hear he had been there.
Oh, this was our first time using Magical Express. It was good.
Anyway, thanks again for this great thread. Now I can offer some advice, too, and answer any questions you have - or at least try. LOL....
I'm going to go back and read some old posts from here, since I now know exactly what everyone is talking about.
The POLY is a great place!!!! Club level is so great! It's a totally amazing experience.
Welcome back!!! I'm glad that you had such a great time
Well just wanted to say hi and that this has been one of my favorite threads. I don't post often but I lurk quite a bit. We will be heading for the Poly in 9 more days. We will be staying for 13 days in a garden view room. Can't say enough about the Poly. It is by far, my favorite resort. This will be our second stay there. We stayed for 9 days last Sept. and my DH and I have found our home. We knew we were home from the moment we walked into the lobby. You see, my DH and I fell in love many years ago at a resort with a Tahitian atmosphere. Romance among the palms you might say.

Anyhow, I have learned quite a few things just reading all the posts. Absolutely love all the pictures too.

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone of you for all the advise I've gleaned by just lurking. Would absolutely love to stay in July for a few days for DH and I's 15th wedding anniversary. Wonder if we could book concierge level on an airline discount? Anybody know? It really is a nice perk. The only way I could even possibly stay at the Poly. Sure would love to stay club level lagoon view just once. Only 9 more days till I can sit and enjoy my Lapu Lapu by the lagoon---pure heaven! I thought about asking for a certain longhouse but I decided to throw caution to the wind and let fate decide where we get placed. I'm just gonna be glad to be there. Once again, thanks to all of you for such a wonderful thread!
Woo hoo! Enjoy your lapu-lapu!!
