    Magic Bands Questions

    We have a trip to WDW coming up in June of this year. We had all already picked out our MB's through MDE, but now those choices are wiped out. And the pool of available MB's to choose from is much smaller. The only avilable solid color right now is raspberry! 🙄I was wondering about just waiting...

    The drive home from WDW to NJ

    I see a lot of info here about driving to WDW, but I'm wondering about the return trip. We'll be taking our trip next June, checking out on a Sunday. Any advice on what time we should start the depressing trek back home to Jersey and where to stop off and stay for the night? Would it be better...

    WDW Veteran Feeling Like a Rookie!

    SAME! Friends of mine are going to WDW this year and were asking for advice from me since they know we are huge WDW fans. Their trip is in February. Our trip is in June. I laughed and said, I'm going to be coming to you for advice for our trip! Crazy! :goofy:

    Arriving at airport one night early

    Last August we arrived at MCO at 8:30, and received our luggage around 1:30 am. If we fly out late in the future, we will NOT be using the luggage service!

    Arriving at airport one night early

    We actually did this once. Stayed in the hotel at the airport the night before and hoped on DME the next morning. Would never do it again! Hotel was clean, and the kids swam in the rooftop pool, but it was a waste IMO. For what we paid to stay there, it would have been better if we booked a...

    I didn't put "hold for guest arrival" on our package, and we didn't have any problems. :confused3

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    We were on the monorail side of the building. The only time we ever saw construction was walking to and from the TTC. Oh, and on the two occasions I did laundry. Our room was on the third floor, so I would use the outside stairs and could see into the construction area as I climbed. We never...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    We were in both buildings in August; Aotearoa...with the mold...and then Rarotonga. I loved the location of Rarotonga over Aotearoa. I found it so convenient to everything I needed. The Great Ceremonial House was on one side, and the laundry was on the other! (Sad, I know). Also, the bus...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    It was Aotearoa. First floor facing the water. I was so sad to leave, because when we woke the next morning, I loved the view! It was so open, and the kids could see the monorail off to the left. We ended up in Rarotonga, third floor, facing the monorail. But, it was difficult to see the...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    One last note about our trip. Our first room had some mold in the bathroom. Yikes! We checked in so late, and by the time we noticed it, the kids were sleeping. So, our first day plans were interrupted because we had to pack up our things and store them with bell service so our room could be...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    I agree that the room service dinner is totally worth it. We also ordered it on our trip last week, and the food was abundant and delicious! I was not all that impressed with the Ohana dinner we had a couple years ago. I thought the grilled items were dried out. Very dried out! But this...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    Checked in a little while ago. Got the building we requested, but not the floor. Wanted Aotearoa, balcony, facing the monorail. We are first floor, facing the water. Not really sure how the view is because it's already dark! Check in was a breeze, and the CM's we encountered were...
