Every time I see photos or hear about Volcano Bay I internally cringe. It just seems like they just made a rip-off of the important Polynesian cultures (I'm not saying Disney does cultural appropriation any better, this is just talking about Volcano Bay). Especially the photos from the media and opening day, with actors having painted on face tattoos. And talking about visiting "villages" and such, just seems icky to me.
Does anyone else feel the same way or am I just being too sensitive (fyi-I definitely don't have any Polynesian ancestry)?
