Aloha- My Tropical Stay At Disney’s Polynesian Deluxe Villas and Bungalows

Ever wanted to combine paradise with Walt Disney World? Look no further because when you book a stay in Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, the newest addition to the Disney Polynesian Resort which was one of the two original Walt Disney Resort hotels that opened October 1, 1971 you get the best of both worlds.

This little slice of paradise combines the spirit of the South Pacific coupled with fun Disney touches to create a resort that only Disney can provide.  Near the picturesque white-sand shore of Seven Seas Lagoon, these new accommodations are located a quick monorail ride to the enchanting Magic Kingdom Park, and steps away from the various world-class amenities available at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.

Staying at the Polynesian Resort is the best in South Pacific ambience combined with all the magic that vacationers have come to expect from Disney. Transporting guests to a tropical haven, Disney’s Polynesian Deluxe Villas & Bungalows reflects the classic features and atmosphere of its sister resort hotel with authentic South Pacific styling and whimsical details. Disney's Polynesian Village ResortThe Polynesian theming and detailed architecture of this resort are visible from the minute guests step into the Great Ceremonial House, the resort’s re-imagined lobby. A large Tiki statue welcomes guests with outstretched arms as it sits on a lava rock water feature. A charming chandelier inspired by Polynesian native navigational instruments, including bamboo finishes and glass globes gives the lobby an even more authentic feel.

I had the chance to stay in the new resort Deluxe Villas which features accommodations that sleep anywhere from five to eight guests, providing enhanced flexibility with deluxe studios that sleep up to 5 guests, or for larger parties, there’s the bungalows that are designed to sleep up to 8 guests.

These rooms feature a split bath design, with one bathroom area housing a walk-in shower and sink, and the other bathroom area providing a tub/shower combination, toilet and sink. This innovative design allows for multiple members of a party to get ready at the same time.
