Does seem kinda weird. Haven't heard of anything going on, but might be related to the ongoing Poly construction.
Yes, considering every one of those days was available on Monday and all gone on Tuesday. I heard on Disboards that it may be something to do with a soft goods refurb for the rooms and that something similar happened for dates in May and then they were back available a week or so later.
Soft goods replacement would make sense, as that can be done fairly quickly.
Probably because it was much harder to get info this year vs last since people weren't there to livestream.They already announced the soft goods refurb was being brought forward from 2022. That was at the members meeting back in December.
How come so many people seem to have missed it?
I don’t own at Poly just booking a room there so not really up to speed on refurbs there. I also didn‘t know they would just randomly take 6 weeks worth of rooms offline at once for that type of refurb. I thought they would stagger it taking a floor at a time for a week or however long it takes. I got my room booked on Monday and then they took them all off line on Tuesday. I guess I should consider it lucky timing.They already announced the soft goods refurb was being brought forward from 2022. That was at the members meeting back in December.

Initially they took rooms out of service in May & June, but those dates appear to have opened up again. Suggesting the refurb has been pushed back until after the regular rooms are finished.
That all makes sense. We are still just outside the 7 month window for September, and they may have just enough rooms already booked to place people into either a single longhouse or two of them. If it's 6 weeks, they know that the replacements can be done in 2 weeks for each longhouse, so that when they take one longhouse out of service for the refurb, the other one or two are already fully booked, so no availability.
This is more of my assumption. Yes lake view is only Moorea on the north side. My guess is also floor or sections of longhouses at a time. Otherwise you take out 1/3 of the rooms at a time if you did it by longhouse.
