I posted this in the Poly Winter Thread but, no response. Anyone have any insights as I have never stayed at the Poly before?

Staying at the Poly for one night prior to moving off site and closer to Give Kids the World Village- where my 18 yr old niece and I will be volunteering. The purpose of the trip was solely for volunteer time however, I just had to sneak in a little side trip to the Poly theme park view CL for one night to celebrate her graduation from high school!! So far, IPO has been wonderful about helping with my planning needs although, I handled my ADR's at Ohana and Kona on my own- and on-line. Curious is anyone has stayed CL at the Poly as of late and how the food offerings have been? Also, I was going to request a patio, 1st floor room. Having never stayed at the Poly before- about how close is the beach from the Hawaii first floor rooms and should I try to get near the CL lounge or further down the hall for the best theme park view?

Oh and one more question. Thinking about ordering a specialty cake. Would you have it delivered to one of our restaurants say- Kona at lunch- or Ohana at dinner- or utilize private dining and have it brought to the room? Anyone utilize private dining for surprises like choc covered strawberries or choc monorail?

Thinking bout using Disney Florist for a small graduation welcome gift in the room too...So many options!! LOL!

Hmmm.. You have soo many questions.. Maybe I can help with some and others here can help with the ones I don't know..

We spoke to the IPO and they made arrangements for something(can't be specific dd16 comes on) for private dining to deliver and set up at our cabana. Never really done it before so.. We are in the same boat there!

Trust me when I say.. If you have a TPV CL room you will get a beautiful view of the castle no matter what room you are assigned! The beach is about 25 yards from your room.. There is a grass area then walkway.. Then the beach! Try sitiing on the patio with a nice bottle of white around 9pm!! Everything will just smack you in the face!! As the electric water parade floats by..and the castle changes colors.. Your thoughts and emotions take control.. Then wishes!!
Cannot wait till we are there!

Last years stay we never really cared what was in the CL lounge as far as food goes. We did like the snacks and breakfast..( Think continental breakfast at holiday inn.) whatever we did nibble on was great! Don't forget the poly punch/sangria.. Really tasty and potent!

This is the most generous thing I have seen in a very long time! Taking your niece and doing all these thing for her! And give kids the world on top of that!
