Located just across the Seven Seas Lagoon, the South Seas come to Florida at the Polynesian Resort. Each of the eleven buildings in this resort are named for a different island in the South Pacific. The guest areas complete the experience with tiki torches, waterfalls, a beach with castle view and lots of lush, tropical landscaping. Amenities abound at this resort and the restaurants are a destination in themselves. Guests can even attend a luau at this resort and cap the evening off by viewing the fireworks from the beach or a dip in the volcano themed feature pool.
The Polynesian Resort, like all Disney resorts, is smoke-free. Designated outdoor smoking areas are indicated on the Resort Map.

From Our MouseForLess Members:
MouseForLess Interesting Facts about the resort:
The lobby is beautiful with plants and waterfalls.- Allyson
MouseForLess Room Request Tips:
Either by the front (Great Ceremonial House) or Tahiti in the back. Tahiti is close to the Ticket and Transportation Center (within walking distance) and the monorails to Epcot. - Allyson
If you have small children and are planning on coming back to the resort for an afternoon nap ask for a room on the ground floor. It's a lot easier and quieter to take turns sitting outside the sliding door on the patio and then the parents can take turns exploring without having to keep opening the main room door. - Steve Carter
MouseForLess Hidden Treasures:
Take a trip to the Tambu lounge and grab a Lapu Lapu and go see the torch lighting ceremony. Nothing like seeing a Polynesian ceremony with a pineapple drink in your hand. - Steve Carter
The Electric Water parade passes by every night around 9pm. - Allyson
MouseForLess Tips for Romance:
The beaches at the Polynesian have spectacular views of Wishes. Either grab a hammock or walk out to the point for a quieter more romantic view. - Steve Carter
MouseForLess Tips for Families:
Sometimes the quickest way to MK isn't through the monorail station in the Main lodge. Sometimes it's faster to make the short walk to the TTC along the nicely themed paths. Especially if you are there during a busy period and are trying to get a ride in the front seat. - Steve Carter
MouseForLess Tips for Large Travel Groups:
The luau is a fun time for all groups, large and small. Be sure to ask for special buttons when you check in - first visit, honeymoon, birthday, etc - Allyson
MouseForLess Tips for Guests with Special needs:
All buildings were handicapped accessible and I noticed Disney as a whole was very open to people with special needs. - Allyson
MouseForLess Tips for WDW Newbies:
Use the monorail system to hop back to your room in the hottest part of the day. We stayed at the park from opening until around 1-2pm, came back to the room to swim and nap and went back to the park after it cooed off around 5-6pm. - Allyson
Got an annoying itch you can't reach? Run to the Tambu lounge and kick back with the best drink in the "world" the Backscratcher it comes with a free bamboo backscratcher. - Steve Carter
MouseForLess Tips for Budget Travelers:
This is not really a budget resort but we found that the dining plan saved our family of 3 over $300! - Allyson
Don't forget to check out the activities in the Big house for the kiddo's, plenty of beads and fun stuff especially on a rainy afternoon. - Steve Carter
MouseForLess Tips for Luxury Travelers:
Ohana is fun, the luau is great, skip on over one monorail stop to the GF for dinner at Victoria and Albert's for REAL luxury!! - Allyson
