It was still being offered last night. I guess I waited too long. Dang! There was a thread about it last month:
We stayed at the Polynesian once in '04, had a few issues with the stay but the manager did take care of us to make up for them. Was really trying to get back in at GF again since the BFF has never been to "the World" and we are trying to make the trip, although short due to school committments, memorable. Well, I went on the WDW site yesterday and lo and behold they were showing Poly availability. I called and was able to apply my PIN code and move to a larger room on the monorail for <$4 more! We're all excited now. I'm hoping for a good location,(we were in Samoa thanks to Tikiman last time). The best part was after I booked and paid my deposit I contacted Sue Ellen, my Dreams Unlimited TA and she was actually able to have my old BC reservation moved over, so I was able to call and request the cancellation of my new deposit, 
: ) One thing that I like about this resort is I feel better about allowing the girls a little freedom, more so than I was feeling about the BC/Boardwalk area.
Ok, so we had a lagoon view booked as part of our land/sea pkg for 12/20-12/23. Had asked about a club level upgrade and was waitlisted. Just got an email from our DU agent that our upgrade came though! Course she didn't say if it was lagoon view, or garden view. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about the upgrade, but can't help but wonder,will we be dissapointed if we traded a lagoon view for a garden view? Are the little extras that come with club level worth the trade? I haven't heard back from her yet, it could be lagoon view,just curious is all.
There is really only 1 building that would give you a parking lot view, all of t he other garden views are wonderful, you could even get a view of the Volcano pool...check out the map of the longhouse locations on page 1, and you can see the layout. uI'd choose your 2 favorite buildings and put that inyour request...if being close to GCH is important to you, then I'd say Garden view is the way to go.....BUT if you got a Lagoon view in Tahiti which is the farthest from GCH, you'd still only have about a 5 min. walk to GCH, so unless you have mobility issues, I'd go for the view that you want.OK, so I've looked at all the pages on this thread as well as Tiki-Man's website (very cool) but still hope you all can help.
We booked a Lagoon View (as we do not want to look at the parking lot) but really like the buildings listed as "garden view" (well most of them). Mainly we want to be as close to the GCH as possible and with a good view; basically anything besides parking lot.
Would you please let me know what rooms to request? We prefer to be on the ground floor and would like to see the pool or lagoon. I"m wondering if it would be better to cancel the Lagoon view (save us about $300) and hope for a decent garden view room or keep the Lagoon view and be further away from GCH.
Please help my Poly expert!
I'd go with Poly, but then I'd love the casual, tropical background for my photos. I also think it would be more convenient since you are staying there.Ooooh, ADRs are driving me CRAZY.
I'm thinking also about booking a photo session for this trip, but I can't decide between the Poly and GF. I'm thinking maybe the Poly because that's where we're staying, but the GF looks more formal for pictures. Hmmm...
Has anyone rented watercrafts from the marina before? My dad really wants to rent a sailboat, but I don't know how much experience is necessary, etc. Does anyone know anything about the motorized/non motorized boats?
Thanks!
Got an email from our DU agent and our upgrade is confirmed club level/lagoon view
Now,one of those 3rd floor balconys would be perfect. Come on pixidust, work you magic 
Okay, now, I remember reading something about the Volcano pool having a heated sitting area, or something like that. Similar to a hot tub.
(Forgive me for sounding like an idiot. We've never stayed at Poly, or a deluxe at all)
I was reading (I think it was in my passporter from our past trip) something that was saying Poly guests are welcome to use the GF's hot tub or something like that? I didn't think much of it, since we weren't staying at the Poly, but I misplaced my passporter, and I googled it and couldn't find anything, and now that we're staying at Poly, I'm curious. So, anyways, ignoring my weird babbling... is this true?
