Where can I find the monorail schedule? Thanks
Hello Poly People!
I am getting ready to book an amazing magical deal at Poly for August 23-30, 2017. We were booked with this deal for last August but my poor father had a heart attack the day before we were supposed to leave so we had to cancel those plans. Luckily he has recovered quite well and we were even able to sneak in a short trip to Beach Club after having to cancel our longer stay at Poly so we did not end up missing our WDW trip of 2016 altogether. However, we cannot wait to finally stay at the Poly for the first time.
I will be traveling with my 8 year old son and my mother. DH has not decided if he wants to join us or not yet (he usually stays home every other trip or so especially if it's in the heat of the summer). I am considering surprising my daughter and booking a room for her and her BF for a few nights as well. She will be turning 21 in August so I thought where better to celebrate?!?
I look forward to reading through everyone's posts and to get started on the planning again!
Hi all! I am so excited--I just made the final payment on our October trip when we will be staying at the Poly for the first time! This is our family's second trip to WDW but our first at the Poly. It will be me (36), DH (39), DD1 (8), DD2 (6), and DD3 (2)(her first visit!) My mom will be joining us as well for a few days. I am thrilled to be staying at this resort and I have found this thread to be a wealth of information! Are there any tips or tricks for staying at the Poly that you would recommend for first time visitors with three little girls? Thanks so much!
Hi, We have a reservation at the poly (renting DVC points) July 4-9th, yay! I've been wanting to stay here since I was a kid.
I reserved 'Ohana for 8:30 on the evening of July 4th. Was hoping for more like 6 or 7 pm but it was either 8:30 or 4 (and we will be at Universal that day, so 4 is too early). Wondering how this will work since fireworks are supposed to start at 9? Will they let us leave the table to go watch the fireworks? I don't want to miss them!! Thanks
Is the car care center in walking distance to Poly?
Thank you!While it isn't that far away, walking would be difficult with the highway traffic--no sidewalks. Far better to call and arrange a pick-up time--it is free and they are prompt.
Best way to get from the Polynesian to the Swan early in the morning? We need to be at the Swan by 7:30 am. How should we go about getting there?
I'll have my first stay at the Poly in October. I'm taking my mom for her first ever visit, and told her to look at the resorts online and pick which she liked the most. She picked the Polynesian I told her she has good taste.
I am familiar with the resort, and I have followed along with the thread casually, but decided to go ahead and post now that I'm official!
I booked standard for now, with plans to request 3rd floor Fiji, but I'm crossing my fingers for a pin code or a good AP discount in the coming months. Depending on that, I may switch us to a club level room.
Looking forward to planning this trip and experiencing the Poly while actually staying there vs. just visiting to eat or look at holiday decorations!
Thanks. That was what I was thinking but didn't know if there was a way to use the bus or monorail. I think that may be to early for them?Taxi/Uber. Pretty much your only practical option unless I'm just not thinking of something.
Oasis will take DDP, but has limited service hours for food. The hours are shorter than the bar hours.Which quick service restaurants (other than Captain Cook's) will take the dining plan for QS meals or snacks? I'm wondering about the Oasis, Barefoot lounge, etc. Based on what I could find, it's just CC's for meals and Pineapple lanai for snacks. Still on the fence about buying DDP...
