Tim was filming the flower headbands and the cast member told him Auntie Kau’i made them. It’s note worthy because Auntie Kau’i is a native of Hawaii who has worked at the Polynesian since opening day in 1971!
Heidi Walsh May she Rest In Peace now ❤️
the Polynesian is BY FAR the best resort on Disney property. I've stayed there only once, and can't wait till the next time I do stay there
The Polynesian is my Home resort! I love it so much!
lebrontheGOAT in ur opinion
I work at the Poly Resort. I work at Capt Cooks and at Oasis.
Cool! What is your perfect menu?
Toilet 🚽 paper minute with Tim. Lol 😂
Tim is too funny
We are at Disney World this week and actually staying at Polynesian! We walked right by! Didn't want to bother Tim, he was busy! Nice to see that beautiful resort! Even better to stay at! We miss seeing Jen too!! 🌴🍹
My husband and I stayed here for a belated honeymoon in Nov. 1988. It was a dream come true for me to finally go to WDW. Amazingly beautiful resort. I miss the fountain that used to be in the middle of the lobby. We stayed here for $175 a night back then, I think its about $450 now, ouch!!! Thanks for such a great video.
The "hill" with the seats is called sunset pointe and it's not what it used to be, they tore it up quite a bit when they built the bungalows. This however was the spot where fairytale weddings were held,like mine back in 2002. We still visit it when we are there but it's definitely sad to think what it was
Polynesian is a pretty gorgeous resort - super expensive though!
Nicole Woodhall have you tried dvc?!? It makes staying at the Polynesian affordable!!
Tim, I've never not called it the Ticket and Transportation Center; glad I'm not the only one!
Alex Cruz same!! 😂
Poly is one of our favourite resorts - we've been lucky to stay there a few times. If you get the Lapu, Lapu, don't forget your spork to scrape out the awesome pineappley goodness that is left behind when the booze is gone. Tangaroa Terrace was a restaurant at one time.
"About three" cabanas. Makes me and daughter giggle every time. Love you guys!
I really liked the food in Ohana
Stayed at the Poly during out last visit in 2015, we LOVED it! Really loved the drinks and the view of the castle for fireworks!
Hi Tim! I was so excited to see this video! The Polynesian is my favorite hotel on property and I just stayed there in October of 2017 (Courtesy of my best friend who is a DVC member), and it was such a nice thing to cross off of my Disney Wish List! Every time I’m in Disney I like to hotel hop, and I’ve wanted to stay here for such a long time. I’m so used to staying at the All Stars and Pop Century - which I love - but I can see the appeal to the deluxe resorts! The monorail is SO nice and convenient to have RIGHT THERE when you want to head into MK or take it and transfer to Epcot. We were in the Moorea building and it was a little bit of a walk to the main entrance (Like 5-6 minutes), but walking through the resort property I felt like I was really in Hawaii or somewhere really exotic. We had breakfast at Kona Café and LOVED it. It’s highly recommended! For as many times as I’ve been there as a tourist for the afternoon and now a guest of the hotel, I (we) didn’t make it down to the beach. For anyone who wants to plan a “rest” day and not go into the parks, definitely take advantage of the pools and laying out on the beach! I also loved having the option to have Dole Whip any time we wanted, and I honestly lost count at how many we had. We had such a wonderful experience and I hope I can stay there again some day! Thanks for the tour!
Wasn't sure about adding another Disney video blog to the rotation, but your sincerity and genuine delight for Disney has won me over, Tim. Your WDW videos are a genuine delight.
I was at the Polynesian Village in 1989. Lots of changes since then! Back in those days the Tangaroa Terrace was a restaurant. Loved the banana stuffed french toast for breakfast.
Toilet paper minute with Tim should be a thing!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Great walk thru the resort it looks amazing!
The PVR is beautiful!!! It’s definitely my fave ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have been to Disney world 45 times,starting in 1981,this is the only resort I have never stayed at.i have learned so much from your vlogs thank you.i hope to meet you some day and chat.
this is the dream resort for me! whenever i visit disney i stay in a value resort but i always like to spend time here either at a restaurant or sitting in the sand watching the fireworks the themeing here is so lovely
Holy cow, you couldn't ask for a more detailed and extensive tour than THAT ! ( Complete with Tim's toilet paper minute...😂)
The Poly is our home away from home, couldn't imagine staying anywhere else on property.
Another amazing vlog from you, Tim, so glad we found your channel.
You ROCK !!!
I love the resort tours. It's pretty amazing to see all the different types of hotels.
Jared Ronkos checkout my video of the DVC rooms at the poly!!! They are huge and gorgeous! Two bathrooms!
poly is one of our family favs...when we're missing Disney I text a picture of a lapulapu to my husband for a happy memory😄thanks Tim for a great tour...helps us to feel like Dis isn't so far away!
My wife and I honeymooned here in 2006. There has been some changes to the resort since then. We loved it. Ohauna's was fantastic. I remember my shoulders getting sunburned from being in the pool on our first full day there. It hurt so bad. Our first dance as a married couple was at the Luau. Would love to stay there again, but just can't afford it now.
We stay at shades of green and love walking over to the Poly for easy access to the monorail, drinks and entertainment , and exploring the resort!
Tim’s toilet paper research is a shining example as to why all parents should follow this Vlog!
Me and my husband were staying here this week for our anniversary and we loved it! We stayed in the bottom floor of Fiji and walked out to the beach every night to watch the fireworks it was such a beautiful resort!
I stayed there 17 years ago with family and it still looks the same with some new additions! Great place to stay!
Poly is our go to place. Love it there.
Loving the scruff! Great vlog Tim!
Thanks so much Tim. I understand the effort that goes into making these resort walks but they bring back so many memories and make us want to plan another trip. We have been lucky to stay in many of the resorts and we all sit around the TV to watch your tours. The Poly is very busy, we found it more enjoyable to stay at the Grand Floridian DVC building and walk along to visit. But the lobby is simply the best of any resort.
Thanks again from the UK!
We've been vacationing at Shades Of Green military Resort for 10 yrs, its beautiful !!!
Tim, you make my Day! Every day before work I watch a Disney video and I am instantly at my happy place. Definitely makes “paying the price” a whole lot easier. Have a great day! 😊
Hi Tim. Thank you for this video. After years of saving we are booked for 2024. This is the resort I always wanted to take my daughter to. This has given me a great insight into what we can expect. Love you films and keep up the good work.
Ohana has a special place in my heart because my husband and I had a wonderful dinner there during our honeymoon. The service and food was amazing. By far my favorite dinner of the whole trip. ❤️👍🏻
My family and I stayed here and it was such a great resort. The most memorable one in my opinion.
The Shades of Green sign is there because you can use the monorail at the Polonysian and take the walking trail to Shades of Green it's quicker than waiting for the Shades bus. We stay at Shades all the time and walk over to Polonysian all the time.
My absolutely favourite place my grandma took me here about 10 years ago before she caught Ill so many memories ❤️
My favorite tour yet! I’d love to take a trip without tickets and stay at the Poly all day exploring!
Man, that horn couldn’t have been more perfectly timed.
The Polynesian has been one of my favorites since I was a kid. I always feel transported when I visit there. I have never stayed but my wife and I always try and visit to walk around or go to Kona cafe.
My wife and I are staying here for 7 nights in a couple weeks. First time staying at the Poly and this video was perfect timing. Thanks for such a great tour, Tim.
Good thing I watched this. My son loves Stitch and I booked Ohana for dinner during our trip, which I learned is not a character meal. Thanks Tim!!!
The little guy that you see as the "shruggy" statue that shows up in all of the Polynesian-specific merchandise is supposed to be a tikki of Maui. Not, like, movie Maui but ACTUAL Maui.
A thousand hearts and thumbs up! Stayed here for the first time in September. It has ousted the Beach Club as our new favorite resort! Thank you for the tour!
@17:50- Magical umbrellas that catch waterfalls!!! The Polynesian is pure magic!
Bucket list resort. Looks amazing.
Tim, thank you for these resort videos, they're very helpful!
Fab video! I really fancy a dole whip with some rum now... 😍
This is so incredible, guys! Love how in depth you go into detailing all of the incredible things to see at the resorts!
lol toilet paper minute. love it.
loved going here for Ohana breakfast :)
Now that was a great resort tour. Thanks guys. This resort is definitely on my wish list.
This is an incredible resort. Thank you for taking us on a tour.
This makes me miss Disney. I didn't get to use my dvc at the poly for the last 2 years. I miss it so much. Wish I was living near enough to just stop by and relax there even with out park time it is such a relaxing place.
Stayed here for my 16th birthday trip and it was a wonderful experience!!! Would love to stay here again ❤️
We're doing Kona.for breakfast on our way out and can not wait to enjoy the resort for a while and thanks for the pressed penny info. I love those things. And the beach. I use the sand in my travel crafts.
Thank for the tour I'm wanting to go to Disneyworld and it really helps to kind of understand where to stay.
Fun fact, that “Fisherman guy” is actually named Uti, and she’s the tiki goddess of fishing. That’s actually a replica of her when she used to be at the tiki room in Disneyland, before the roof she was on collapsed due to wood rot. Pretty cool to see!
Loved the toilet paper minute.
So much yes!!!! We booked music and they are doung refurbs sooo we wanted to upgrade to poly....this sealed the deal! You guys are awesome.
Love poly, stayed there for the first time in October. ❤️
My family's favorite resort! We stay in the Hawaii long house club level it's so great..last year we were in the lobby waiting for our room to be cleaned and got chosen as the "Ohana" of the day and got to meet the king fire dancer from the Aloha dinner show!
Wonderful video; very informative (and relaxing).
I loved this video! Thank you so much for putting your time to make it!
I ate at Ohana this past New Years and it was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Definitely will be eating there again.
Hi Tim, these are great videos. I love the fact that you go through the entire place. I think you do a MUCH better job than the Disney people in showing off their own resort. It's exactly what a regular person going there would like to see and know about the place before they get here. In addition, you show the food and the prices so everyone knows what's available. You show everyone every thing. If you do anyplace, I really think you should make the video an hour long in each case but no more than that. That would ensure a really thorough job on any venue. In these videos you do are a real service to the public who is considering these venues. THANKS.
Great walkthrough - thank you, Tim!
The tables with the black table cloths on the second floor is where they do the Highway in the Sky progressive dinner portion at the Poly.
So cool to see where Shades of Green is located! Hopefully my family will stay there soon!
Love the hotel/resort tours! We are staying for the 1st time at Poly in August! Thanks for the sneak peek!
OMG Tim! It;s Genius! You must review ALL the TP at all the Resorts and Facilities and Disney and More. The Tracker Toilet Paper Review!! That might go trending!! Wow Thank you for Walking that Tim! Thank you Jenn for going through all that too!!!
Love the poly, AWESOME 😎
Was lucky to stay here for my 40th birthday because my late husband was a Disney cast member and that was only way we could afford it. So expensive but so beautiful. Thanks Tim.
Someday I will stay here! I like the fact they have good TP! 🤣 Love 💕 these resort tours!
yep transportation and ticket center. They do the night time movies on that little green spot outside the ceremonial house also. Can't wait. We are staying at the poly in June.
Yay thank you so much Tim!
Thank you for a wonderful tour. Brought back great memories of when I was fortunate enough to stay there for several vacations. But I'm so aggravated they've since put those ugly Bora Bora bungalows directly in front of the rooms and now block the view of the castle!
Tangaroa Terrace was a restaurant at the Poly when we visited late 80s and early 90s. We had huge Mickey Waffles for breakfast there.
Thanks for the tour! We were looking at staying here, so it was good to have a little look around. :)
We are new DVC owners (from the UK) and the Polynesian is our home resort can't wait to stay there for the first time next year 😁 thought it was beautiful when we went to Ohana in November 😍
I've always wanted to go, thanks for creating such a thorough video.
I absolutely love your resort tour videos. It lets me see places that I will probably never stay at and helps me choose the resort I will stay at on our next trip. Keep up the awesome videos.
your video tours are excellent. your descriptions are clear. Filming isn't shaky. thanks.
I just stayed here for my birthday staycation. I really liked it.
Great video. Last visit to Disneyworld (24 hours on a plane from New Zealand) we had a 'Hotel Day' where we visited as many hotels on the property as we could. Never made it to the Polynesian so your video was an excellent watch.
The interesting highlight of the day was having lunch at the Contemporary and the power went out. We watched all the guests in the Magic Kingdom stream out of the park. Luckily our lunch had already been cooked and delivered so we just ate and watched.
I did laugh (Sorry) at you trying to pronounce 'Aotearoa'. You were not too bad.
It is the Te Reo Maori word for New Zealand and means 'Land of the long white cloud'
It is pronounced ' Ow-tee-ah-ro-ah' as has already bee said. You can use it at the New Zealand stand at EPCOT Food and Wine. You will be a star!
Maori words are pronounced very differently from English.
Try these place names: Petone, Whakatane...
Petone: NOT Pee-tone or Pet- One but 'Pey-toe-nee'
Whakatane: NOT Wok-ah-tane but 'Fha-ka-tar-nee' Sounds rude, but it is not.
I stayed here back in 2010. It poured at our Luau and ended up being canceled :( . I think I would definitely stay here again. You feel like you are in Hawaii. Thank you for the recent walk thru. The comment on the toilet paper, lol. Softer IS better. Great job!
Staying there this weekend...at last. Always wanted to.
Absolutely love this resort! Never had the chance to stay there but we always visit to have drinks or meals there on every trip. One day! 😍
We stayed at the Poly last Sept during hurricane Irma. They took great care of us! 😊
I stayed at the Polynesian the last time I went to Disney and I stayed in the moorea vacation club building. My room was on the third floor over looking seven seas lagoon and we had an absolutely amazing view of the Magic Kingdom fireworks.
So nice to watch, thanks. I'm from So.Cal. and even Disneyland has became so expensive! So glad I can watch, and enjoy your videos!!
I'm actually watching this and freeze framing it on the menus and different reader boards. Your efforts are appreciated. People probably look at you like you're a weirdo when you do this but they don't understand that there's folks like me who watch what YOU'RE filming with more interest than an official Disney resort planning video. You're showing a lot of us the info we need to make a decision. Thank you. ( ...but I'm totally not staying in room 1601 now. )
I stayed here probably right when they opened because they were still finishing the landscaping around Space Mountain.. I remember playing on the beach and riding the monorail through the Contemporary to go to the park.
Loved this review! You and your wife are becoming favorites of mine!
Staying at the Poly in a couple weeks. Can't wait!
Reggae Small World!! Thats such a cool version!!
Ahhh love the Polynesian!!! Also the abrupt "alohas" throughout the vid -- so good 😂
Aotearoa is New Zealand :)
I have a friend who's a DVC member. We stayed at the Polynesian last year and we stayed on the second floor about where you pointed at 34:30 and we could watch the fireworks. Those rooms do cost a little more than the other rooms in Moorea. And it was quicker to walk to the TTC from there then to walk all the way to the main building.
Thanks for sharing these!
