Hi ive been reading up and asking alot of questions about The Polynesian and ive seen alot of people give their own views on their fave Longhouse and i now have another question;

When you request to stay at a certain Longhouse at The Poly, how often do you get the longhouse of your choice? Is it random or do you get your choice more often than not?

Also is it just Hawaii that has the club level rooms??

Thanx in advance :wave::wave::wave:

Can we call to put in a request for a particular longhouse if we already have a reservation in the system? Or did the request need to be made at the time of the reservation?

Does anyone fax requests anymore?

We loved Fiji. We requested it beacuse it was close to GCH and boat launch. We had a room the overlooked the marina. And I would absolutely request it again. My kids loved waking up in the morning and looking at the boats. From our room we could see marina, boat launch, and GCH. It was perfect even for my mom who was in desperate need of 2 hip replacements when we went.

I went ahead and called and they added it to the reservation.

Looking forward to Sept!

On our first trip to the Poly we requested Tokelau and got it. The second time we requested Fiji and did not get it. Both times we put in our request when we made our reservations months beforehand. My advice is to have a second and maybe even third choice in mind just in case when you check in they tell you that your requested longhouse is full.

We are staying at The Poly for three weeks from 26 August, different people are recommending different Longhouses. In the past we have spent the first two days ( well not literally ) looking for a nice room and have always been accommodated, at the Swan the front desk gave us about ten room keys for empty rooms and let us take a quick look and choose whichever room we wanted so I think we'll do the same this time.
