So, no waterfalls at all now at the Poly. Sheesh, Disney!
Hopefully the gardens with a water feature make it back at the end of construction!So, no waterfalls at all now at the Poly. Sheesh, Disney!
I wouldn’t count on it. Since the opening is Summer 2021, in Disney speak that very rarely means so early in the season. I would think more July or August.Just hoping its done by the first week of June ...
Summer literally means anywhere from May-September for Disney. They have given that timeframe for many things and have opened things all over the spectrumI wouldn’t count on it.

True. I forgot they include May in their summer. I was thinking it was more June-August so I was going more law of averages it wouldn’t be the first week of that. But I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I can’t wait to step back into the GCH lobby. Always been my all time favorite lobby.Summer literally means anywhere from May-September for Disney.

Honestly though, with no guests to work around they can work at their preferred pace. That could mean an early opening considering they have fewer obstacles than normal. But with the virus, there’s also less motivation to open yet another resort. Although the poly is a sought-after resort for sure.True. I forgot they include May in their summer.

The DVC portion is still open, so there are guests at the resort.Honestly though, with no guests to work around they can work at their preferred pace.

Yes, but the portions they are working on don’t have guests in them. The areas of the GCH they are working on are closed to guests and the guest rooms are all closed to guests as well.The DVC portion is still open, so there are guests at the resort.
Exactly. They are able to rehab ALL of the cash rooms right now at their own pace instead of having to fit a quick rehab between guests.Yes, but the portions they are working on don’t have guests in them.

I am just worried about the GCH - that's the thing even with "Summer" ...ok, things will be "done" by "summer" ... but since we are DVC members, really I am just hoping the GCH is open by first week of June.
The question is really will the GCH BE The GCH or will it be 'Decor by Ikea with Moana decorations' Like the transition from 'Notes from Civilization' to 'Moana's Merchandise'. The first was charming and fun, the second looked like the Hudson/Paradies airport shops at any airport worldwide.
Hopefully someone has the brains to leave the Tambu bar alone, Yes it's 70's kitsch but that's what makes it unique and fun.
We went to Disney for the uniqueness and over the top attention to detail that made staying in a Disney resort fun. After endless nights in Marriott's and Hilton's for business the last place I want to stay is at a pale imitation of a Marriott at 6x the price with none of the amenities which come with a stay at a Marriott.
I fear that yet again Disney will 'Pave Paradise to put up a parking lot'
I have been mixed on some of the changes. I mean, I LOVE the DVC rooms at the Poly for instance. I LOVE the POP rooms (and I guess the all star now, since they are done) ... those ARE quite IKEA as you say, but I still prefer them so much to what was there. The SSR rooms look fantastic ! But, Coronado for instance, I think again looks like an Ikea room, but for Coronado I DON'T think that's an upgrade, quite the opposite. I fear what they are going to do at our beloved POR, where we love the charm and character of everything, incl,ding the rooms.
