News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

[BrianLo]

Next time you're there spend a night at the Four Seasons and a night at Aulani. They're often about the same price point. The difference in level of service and quality is astounding.

Unfortunately, I’m not on cash rates there! Though I’d eat at the four seasons for sure.

I don't really see a problem with the rooms themselves at the new Poly tower. It's the rest of it that's an issue.

Haven’t seen this reported.

A fitness centre has been confirmed. Also outdoor viewing platforms with views to MK.

Also units on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th & 9th (penthouse level) have been declared. No info yet on sales.

Important to note that the Halekulani also has a fitness center so this expansion will be amazing..

It appears what looks like Moana's outrigger has arrived on site near the pool area - photos from today.

This looks like a really cool apartment complex that services students at FGCU

Thank you for the update.

Yeah, it’s where the “water play area” is specified in the plans.

Moana sure has a way with water. What a journey.

Probably. It’s an insanely popular IP, showcasing a culture and locale many seem to love and want to experience / recreate.

Also nice affirmation for an indoor/outdoor main level TS restaurant, with a bar probably also serving the pool.

I like Aulani a lot, but the rooms are starting to stand out. As earlier 2000’s. These are still the original design, though they’ve seen a soft refurb, they are clearly out of style. (Which is not an indictment, just a notation).

Now, the building exterior itself is far superior. But the bathrooms use a lot of black and brass and that’s really starting to date them. I assume there will be much more of a Poly Tower convergence when these have their hard goods refurb in a few years.

It’s also silly with the insistence of how these new rooms are ‘economic/cheap’. They don’t look cheap… just muted style choices.

The problem I have with the new rooms is that they’re cool and muted colors. Although the aulani rooms do start to look dated I like that they are warm and saturated.

I dislike the muted colors and semi matte flat finishes. Personally I enjoy being in a warm palette room than cool

I don’t think there’s been confirmation that it’s a TS restaurant. It could be QS like Primo Platto at Riviera. Or Geyser Point.

I actually don’t understand Disney’s definitions I must admit! I ordered food from a menu at a table at Geyser point. But I see it is indeed a quick service. I thought quick services required walking up to a kiosk or service window.

I actually hope this restaraunt at Poly is like geyser point.

Geyser Point is more like a hybrid. But it doesn’t take reservations so it’s counted as a QS.

The restrooms are labeled “TSR RR MEN” and “TSR RR WOMEN” indicating that it is a table service restaurant.
