FROG FAMILY REVIEW
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort*
What we love
- Most kid-friendly of the Monorail Resort Hotels
- One of the most popular hotels, with more repeat guests
- Beautiful Polynesian theming is a hit with families
- Boat and monorail transportation to Magic Kingdom® Park
- Some of the largest standard rooms on property; most rooms sleep up to five with a daybed
- Terrific on-site dining, including the very popular Kona Grill
- On-site character breakfast with Lilo, Stitch and other friends at 'Ohana
- Popular Trader Sam's Grog Grotto offers tropical drinks and an interactive atmosphere
- One of the best-themed pools on property, recently renovated to add a fabulous water play area for tadpoles and hot tubs for adults
- Monorail or boat transportation to Magic Kingdom® Park; 5-15 minute walk to Transportation and Ticket Center for monorail transport to Epcot®
- Few parking lot views; most rooms offer views of the grounds, many, the lagoon, and some, a view of Magic Kingdom® Park
- Free parking!
Keep in Mind
- Hotel charges $39 per night (sales tax included) for valet parking
- Among the most expensive Deluxe Resort Hotels
- What room you book largely depends on what's important to you, but as a smaller resort, there is less walking
- Bus services is shared to Disney's Hollywood Studios® and Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park
Notable Facts
- Underwent recent renovation on the Great Ceremonial House lobby and Lava Pool, and to add deluxe studios and the over-the-water Bora Bora bungalows
- Disney's Polynesian Village Resort and Disney's Contemporary Resort share the distinction of being the first Disney hotels to open on Oct. 1, 1971
- Each of the longhouses are named for Polynesian islands
- John Lennon signed papers to officially break up the Beatles at the Polynesian on Dec. 29, 1974
- Disney's Polynesian Village Resort is currently rated as a AAA 4-Diamond resort
Frog Family Tips
- Take the boat to Magic Kingdom® Park — it's often faster than the monorail, especially during less busy times
- Try the Tonga Toast at Kona Cafe — it's banana-stuffed sourdough French toast rolled in cinnamon sugar and served with a strawberry compote
- For a friendly and fun night away from the kids, head over to Trader Sam's Grog Grotto; most drinks are big enough for sharing!
- Get your Dole Whip fix outside of the park at Pineapple Lanai
- For standard rooms, request a second floor on Samoa (closest to the pool and the beach) (not all requests are guaranteed)
- If you want to be closest to Transportation and Ticket Center, select Moorea (resort-view side has standard rooms) (not all requests are guaranteed)
Best For
- Families, especially larger families, who love the relaxed, island vibe, being close to Magic Kingdom® Park and Epcot®, plenty of dining options and amenities, and don't mind paying for the convenience
