Google · We had a great time staying at the Polynesian. Everyone at the resort was friendly and helpful. Renting point is fairly easy and a good deal. Staying at a Disney resort gives you access to the early park entry and staying at the Polynesian also allows you access to the extended night hours to the parks too. Once you get your reservation confirmation you can feed that into the My Disney Experience site and tie everything together which makes checking in and out easy. On that site you can also make dining reservations up to 60 days in advance. You can get magic bands there too and use them to open the door to your room. You can tie in a credit card to the magic band and use them to buy things at the parks. We loved riding the boat to Magic Kingdom and the monorail at the transportation center right next door goes straight to Epcot. The Disney buses to Hollywood Studio's and Animal Kingdom are a good alternative to renting a car. We also took the shuttle service to and from the airport to the resort. That worked fine, as I really don't like driving in Florida that much and getting the rental car back to the airport is a bit of a pain. I do wish that Disney would bring back the Magical Express and the fast pass system. You have to pay for the shuttle now and the Genie is sometimes more of a hinderance than a help and can get pricey. My 13 month old granddaughter enjoyed the rides and the people at the parks especially the other children, the animals and the birds.
