Which Longhouse at the Polynesian?

[bethpelk]

We are arriving this Saturday (yeah!) at the Polynesian (standard view) and wanted to request our longhouse. Between my brother's family and mine we have four kids under 8 and will need adjoining rooms. Which longhouse would you recommend? We want non-smoking (however my husband will sneak one on the balcony or patio). Thanks to Tikiman - I think I have it narrowed down to Tokelau, Rapa Nui or Tahiti??? Thanks!!!!

RobMax - Concierge is only in Hawaii.

Bethpelk - Tokelau is most central, but also the most requested longhouse, so your chances of getting in there will probably be the least.

We just stayed in Rapa Nui in December and while I was disappointed at first not to get Tokelau, Rapa Nui is actually a VERY good location. It has it's own parking lot to the right of the main entrance so you can park very close to the building. It also is a short walk to the TTC to catch the Epcot monorail. And while you are not right on the beach, you can walk right around Tahiti and be right there to view the EWP or the fireworks.

We also had requested connecting rooms and got them - we had 3rd floor which was nice and quiet. And the view out the balcony of the lovely grounds was great.

You can't go wrong requesting Rapa Nui.
