Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

We stayed in a Studio Villa for 5 nights, and loved it! I love the location of this resort since it has access to the monorail. The inside and theming are very nice, too. I love the food options here as well, and you can get dole whip on site. The room was very clean and was equipped with everything we need. The resort is huge so there can be a lot of walking depending on where your room is located. The pool is beautiful and has a really cool water slide.

So beautiful, such a magical experience. I think overpriced for the room but you pay for proximity to the park. Able to watch fireworks from our lagoon view room which made it all worth it. The restaurants were always packed. Food was okay. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Vibe was great. 4.5 stars

At approximately $1,000 per night, this hotel falls dramatically short of expectations. The room was cramped, featuring what appeared to be a full-size bed—not even a queen—along with a pull-out couch. This is unacceptable at this price point. The bathroom design was equally frustrating. Guests must step fully into the shower just to turn it on, guaranteeing an unnecessary cold soak before the water warms up—an amateur design flaw that has no place in a “luxury” property. Service was another major letdown. Much of the staff seemed disconnected from the premium rates guests are paying to stay and dine at the hotel, often coming across as short and abrupt instead of attentive and welcoming. Combined with an excessive number of rules, the atmosphere felt rigid and inhospitable. Even ordering a drink was unnecessarily inconvenient, as guests were not permitted to stand at or near the bar. In short, this stay delivered Ritz-Carlton prices with budget-hotel comfort and service. For the money, there are far better options—both domestically and abroad. I couldn’t be less impressed and legitimately feel like I got bamboozled.

We were so excited! But This is Not a 4 Star Hotel. Food access is very limited and everything rolls up at 11pm. Trader Sams is a joke here. No room service (which is a requirement to be rated a 4 Star Hotel btw Disney) Main building has dirty worn flooring. The Kona Cafe & Ohana both serve Crap food, from the exact same kitchen. Powder3d eggs that are like cottage cheese. The Character meals at Ohana Rock but other wise nah, eat elsewhere. Premium guests are not prioritized for transportation on the water, the parking ferries run more consistently. We waited over an hour during a christmas party event they should have planned for. Boats are dirty and have spiders all over them. Busses are ridic full and serve Poly & Grand F. The property of The Poly over all is aging and it shows. But its like our bell hop said, most people come to D World once, drop 15k plus and dont come back and Disney dont care to improve. He said the trouble was from Disney leadership that wormed their way to top during the pandemic. Having been the D World and Land I can tell you the difference and I much prefer D Land. The Poly is a Poor value for 800-1000 a night. We were in 1313 and the hall stunk like shampoo'd carpet. Tons of tiny ants in our room and mold in shower. Room was big but again no room service?! You are Better off at the Grand Floridian, or Contemporary if you wish to be near Magic King. Otherwise stay at All Star. Peace.

I cannot say enough amazing things about the Polynesian. It felt so perfect; the rooms, ambiance, dining, pools, location. The service was top-tier, people were so warm and helpful. The tiki torches, outdoor children’s activities, movies, etc. made it so fun and welcoming to be outside with everyone. The dining was delicious. Hawaii is my favorite place, and this really made us feel like we were there, including the dole whip station. The location was also along the monorail, making it very easy to get to magic kingdom, Epcot, and the neighboring resorts to try other dining options. We could also view the Magic Kingdom fireworks from the tower. We really enjoyed our week-long stay!!
