Accommodations Review:
|
We loved this resort. The theme was wonderfully carried out, the
staff attentive and we had absolutely no problems with any aspect
of our stay. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
We did not want to rent a car. The Poly seemed to have the most
transportation options. The pool looked fun to my eight year old cousin
who went with us, and the theme seemed very vacationy. |
Room # and Location Description:
|
Tahiti, Room # 2009. Very close to the Transportation and Ticket
Center. The building was also close to a beach I never saw anyone
on. We walked all over the resort and never felt that anything was
too far away. Our room was lovely, clean and we saw no signs of wear. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
Close to TTC, a nice beach, and the quiet pool. A longer walk to
the themed pool, but not to bad. It was really too far to walk just
to refill our mugs though, the soda machine was closer. |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
We didn't check in until 9:00pm, there was no line. We didn't use
a credit card, so we didn't have to check out. |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
Wonderful!! We never waited more then ten minutes for anything.
Being next to the TTC was nice also. For example after the Hoopo De
Doo everyone else had to take a bus to Downtown Disney and than transfer
to a resort bus. We just hopped on the bus to the TTC and walked to
our room. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
'Ohana was nice. It could have been more fun but we ate there
on September 11, and everyone was trying to be upbeat, but it was
hard in light of what had just happened. The food was good though.
Kona Cafe was fine, the desserts were out of this world. We went back
before we left just for more dessert. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
We pool was fun and never seems too busy. Christa always found a
little girl too play with so we didn't mind the crowd. The quiet pool
was always that, quiet. |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
Be sure you try to slow down and enjoy all the hotel has to offer.
We had as much fun at the resort as we had in the parks. |

Christa loved the Neverland Club. I was nervous leaving her because
she was the only child there. It turned out she was one of three for
the evening and the other two kids were babies. She still had fun
the staff kept her busy and it was a highlight of her trip. |
