Tiki Man with 5 Reasons to Stay at Disney's Polynesian Villas
Read on to learn five reasons to stay at Disney’s Polynesian  Villas and Bungalows.

Unless you are a Disney Vacation Club member, you may have never stayed in a Disney Vacation Club resort before. So, let’s take a look at some of the reasons you might want to consider booking a stay in a Disney Vacation Club resort on your next trip to Walt Disney World.

If you love the idea of a Hawaiian vacation, then you would love a stay at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. When you arrive, you are surrounded by lush greenery, greeted with a Hawaiian lei and made to feel like family. Similar to most Disney Vacation Club resorts, part of this resort houses hotel rooms, while the villas and over-water bungalows are designated as the Disney Vacation Club portion of the resort. So, what is there to love about Disney’s Polynesian Villas? Here are five reasons to stay at Disney’s Polynesian Resort, including the Villas and Bungalows!

1. Location, location, location. Disney’s Polynesian Resort is located on the monorail line, connecting guests right to the iconic Magic Kingdom park. It is also a short walk to the Ticket and Transportation Center. This is where guests can catch the monorail to Epcot. If you would prefer water transportation, guests can also take the water taxi to Magic Kingdom.

2. The Lava Pool is one of the best pools on Walt Disney World property. Take a ride down a water slide through a volcano, or enjoy the splash play zone nearby. If you’d like a quieter place to swim, Disney’s Polynesian Resort also offers a quiet pool.

From Tonga Toast at Kona Cafe for breakfast to dinner at ‘Ohana while overlooking Magic Kingdom, families can’t go wrong! Guests can also enjoy Captain Cook’s, the quick-service dining location, among other options, like Trader Sam’s.
