Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

[gluestickgirl]

Has anyone rented points for a Studio? We are currently booked in a standard room (but I went back and forth on which to book). I had been hoping for Free Dining but Poly not included. I’m now considering renting points as I think that would be considerably cheaper than a possible RO discount. I’m just a little nervous and of course need to decide very soon I’m sure. Today is exactly 7 months. I would use David’s I think.

both lake and standard view DVC at the poly only have random days left through the end of the year.

Thanks. I started looking today and that’s what I’m finding. Looks like it will be RO discount for us. It’s probably going to be $1000 more than FD would have been. Oh well.

I have a theme park view room booked, I requested Tuvalu. Am I correct in that Tuvalu does not have balconies on the 2nd floor as well? Would the views be better from 1st or 3rd floor?

I would doubt that it would be available in the afternoon since 'Ohana doesn't open until dinner, i.e., no lunch service, but that is merely a guess.

Someone posted a photo of the room service menu in this thread a few years back. As of then, it was 4:30-10:00, which makes sense due to the Ohana hours, as @Tess mentioned.

And I know a few people were talking about the 'Ohana in room feast so I took a pic of that page of the Room Service menu

This is from a few months ago, if helpful.

@Tess @pepperandchips @GADisneyDad14

I think I thought someone had it earlier in the day but 'Dinner' is definitely not at 2pm lol.

We will need plan a B

 

[trishadono]

I have a theme park view room booked, I requested Tuvalu. Am I correct in that Tuvalu does not have balconies on the 2nd floor as well? Would the views be better from 1st or 3rd floor?

i had a Std tuvalu in October, no balconies.

I did enjoy the views of lagoon side from the staircases. Also the marina area is just lovely. I am usually in Hawaii and I enjoyed being on this side of the resort for a change of pace.

Of course, who knows if the times on the private dining menu are accurate!

[Dave006]

Correct the Tuvalu longhouse has no balconies on the 2nd floor. Balconies are only on the 3rd floor and the 1st floor rooms have patios.

This menu looks delicious. Is this the Oasis pool bar food menu? Or, is it Kona Cafe? Or, something else?

 

[trishadono]

No balconies on the 2nd floor? Or at all?

No balconies on the 2nd floor for all the hotel rooms . The dvc rooms DO have balconies on the 2nd fyi.

Sorry for confusion

Thanks!

I am not kidding, I memorize building location and room numbers and what on the menu for each resort I am at.

Nothing is worse than arriving tired from an early flight and getting lost or being hungry NOW. It is easy to do too . Just look at the map and get familar with resort and look at menus. Do once a week and it will help.
