Disney's Polynesian Village

Walt Disney World, Orlando

Star rating

The hotel

Tropical gardens, lavish luaus and calm waves characterise Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. Gentle people, laughter and good cheer help every member of the family to capture that laid-back South Pacific mood in no time at all. Rooms are airy and have a tropical feel with bamboo and wood décor. When exploring the resort, tell the kids to look out for the unique Kukai Nut tree. The only one of its kind in the state of Florida, the tree was brought to the Walt Disney World Resort from its native Hawaii. The hotel is on the monorail system that will whizz you to the Magic Kingdom Park.

This is based on a short visit to the resort; I didn't stay here. The grounds are beautiful, such lush vegetation, made me feel as if I were on an island. I stopped at the coffee shop located on the 2nd for a puchase. It was nice speaking to Kyle, as he was preparing my drink. I loved my tropical drink!

The theming at this resort is superb and the shopping is awesome. Can’t beat the monorail and proximity to magic kingdom. Rooms are gorgeous. Pools are very lovely but they are small for a resort this size. Fireworks from the beach. Easy dining options. Staff and managers here are superb. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

We recently stayed at the Polynesian and enjoyed our time yet again! It’s been along time since we visited here, but it did not disappoint. It’s been through some room remodels and they upgrades are good. The bathrooms are much smaller than some of the others and not as functional with location of the sinks and showers. At this price point they should look to remedy that. The transportation options and close proximity to amenities are priceless, and Disney knows it. This will cost a pretty penny to stay at for Disney, with only the Grand Floridian costing more than this place. Still, I cannot say enough good things about the Polynesian. Forever one of my favorite resorts. The location, the vibe, food, drinks, pool, transportation, just stunning. If you can swing it, stay here! Read less

We were three families with 5 grandchildren visiting here this week , it’s highly over priced hotel with terrible room service / terrible housekeeping. Despite multiple reminders no housekeeping/ cleaning was done in rooms 2318 and 2319 on 30 th May . It appears Disney quality has declined to pathetic services over last few years . Rooms are mediocre and appear stale . The phones had static and it was inaudible , so you could not even lodge any complaints. Having stayed in some spectacular hotels in similar price range across Asia / India / Japan recently , you realize how pathetic and inferior services are in some of these US hotels speaks a lot about deterioration of hospitality to its worst . Taking advantage of its location is its only redeemable feature. Read less
