We just returned home from a split stay at the Polynesian and Caribbean Beach Resort... of my 25+ trips to WDW - this may be my favorite.
Awesomeness:
- Tons of resort time --- the Poly is my favorite vibe
- We were lucky enough to view Happily Ever After fireworks from our balcony, even though it was a DVC standard view studio
- Renting an Oasis pool cabana/patio is an absolute delight
- The Tiki deck/veranda is awesome
- Walking to the Grand Floridian and MK is super cool
- Catching the monorail to/from Food & Wine is magical
Not so awesome:
- It was friggin' hot! (hence all the pool time) ;-)
- Lines for E-ticket attractions are very long - even at rope drop... but we are lucky enough to have experienced everything many times, so this trip was much more easy going.
TLDR: An absolutely magical trip, if you can focus on relaxation and adult beverages
