Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

We stayed for a week in a family room which was well apportioned and had good space. On arrival it was quite hectic and we were offered bell services drop-off our cases. We accepted thinking they'd follow shortly but in the end we had to track them down. Two double beds and a single sofa bed, storage space, wardrobes, fridge, and a bathroom where the toilet had a separate sliding door for privacy. We didn't spend a huge amount of time in the room but was very comfortable. Small balcony area. Various restaurant options on site. Grabbed coffee and some fruit one morning at the coffee bar on the first floor and was astonished to learn a single banana was $2.50! We also had takeaway in the Kona cafe once, and booked sushi dinner another night - the restaurant was busy and service a bit slow but the food was delicious. Pool area is stunning. There is a children's area with slides, and another pool which was quieter with more loungers and a cafe. The fish tacos were fab, but you needed to watch out for the birds stealing your chips! You can also order takeaway from the pool bar which we did one evening when the weather was bad. Poolside cocktails lovely too! Car park is big, so sometimes you had to park quite far from the entrance but spaces were always available. Easy access to monorail and therefore other hotels and the parks. Staff around the resort were friendly and it always looked clean and welcoming. We hoped to be able to organise a late checkout and put in a request but sadly it wasn't available the day we left. They can store your cases so you can grab a last few hours in the parks before heading to the airport. Was a lovely stay and we would return if in the area.

Wonderful resort, clean spacious luxurious and absolutely gorgeous views and grounds. Food was amazing. Transportation is great. Staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was awesome plenty of seating. Would recommend. One downside is that the elevators are small though.

We had a great family stay at Disney’s Polynesian Resort in one of their suites. The room was gorgeous—spacious, comfortable, and had such a relaxing tropical vibe. The whole resort is beautiful, and we loved the atmosphere. The only downside was the slow bell service—it took over an hour to get our luggage, and we almost missed our breakfast reservation because of it. Aside from that, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.

O Hotel é muito bem localizado para quem vai fazer os passeios nos parques! É um Hotel com a excelência da Disney! Possui acesso ao Magic Kingdom tanto por trem, como por barco ou ônibus! O que é um diferencial no fim da noite, pois habitualmente os trens estão muito cheios, e o barco é bem mais vazio, pois atende apenas mais dois hotéis do complexo!

Construction starts right outside your room slightly before 7am. The shaking, rattling, saw cutting, and worker conversation is a great feature! The best feature was management's apathetic attitude towards hard working families paying $1k/night. Especially after spending $1k to go to the Halloween party the night before. We returned from the party at 11pm only to have my young children startled by smashing, rattling, and cutting as the saw horse was 10' from our window. Dealing with cranky kids, who weren't able to get enough sleep, at Disney is a blast! Nice or the management to offer us $300 off of our $8k vacation at a "deluxe resort." I would have rather slept in our rental car in the parking lot. We've spent well over $100,000 at Disney over the past decade and we get a "sorry, they need to get the tower done to stay on schedule." Our travel agent was told that construction was to start after 9:00am by TWO separate Disney reps on the phone. The hotel denied it and said Florida state law allows them to start at 7:00am. Great way to treat guests. Disney has lost its appreciation for customers and only cares about the bottom line. They take their customers for granted. It shows in their actions. Dump.

We stayed at this hotel for one-night only because we were traveling to Daytona to stay the long weekend with friends. Our goal was to have a little Disney fun without a theme park experience and it was accomplished! We got there on a Thursday morning around 11:30am and our room was available for check-in (which was great to dump off our bags and freshen up after a long flight). Our kids (ages 5 & 8) thoroughly enjoyed the pool areas - both the water playground and the slide... it kept them busy the entire afternoon. My only wish was that there were better food options. However, we are pretty traditional eaters and don't branch out much, so some of the themed food was not appealing to my family. We ordered Flipper's Pizza for delivery that evening which was very yummy! The best part of the stay was that you have a tremendous view of the Magic Kingdom nightly fireworks over the lagoon!
