We have never tried Ohana. Going there in may for dinner at 6:50pm. Just read we can watch fireworks from Poly. If we did this, what's the best way to get back to Coronado Springs after Wishes??
Thanks;-)
 
We went to All Star Movies after O'Hana and wishes. It is very close to Coronado Springs. We just took the Monorail over to Magic Kingdom and took the bus back to the resort.
 
I would hop on either the monorail or the small boat back to the MK. Take your time and wait for the bigger crowds to exit MK. Get on a bus back to your resort.
 
Get a cab. We started doing this when eating at AKL following a day at AK. The fare isn't bad and you save a ton of time and hassle. We also got a cab back from the Beach Club following dinner at CMC last year. Much easier than going back to HS and getting a bus.
 

At that time of night, I'd definitely take the boat to MK from Poly. The boat will be packed coming FROM MK to the Poly, but you should have an uncrowded trip TO MK on the boat. Most people will get on the monorail. The monorail tends to have its worst slowdowns, etc. at around park closing. Also, the boat docks at MK are slightly closer to the resort buses than the monorail, and the Poly boat dock will be closer to where you watch Wishes from than the monorail stop at the Poly.
 
Poly -> MK boat is best since you will be close to the dock - but - if the Water Pageant is going in Seven Seas Lagoon those boats will not be running. So walk back to the Monorail if that is the case and join the exit crowds from MK for your bus.

If the crowds sound annoying, another option is this:
Get on a Downtown Disney bus from Poly, change for your CS bus when you get there. Plus there are are still 2 or 3 good hours of shopping left at DTD...
