Polynesian or not

[little tink]

We absolutely loved the Polynesian and have stayed there twice! We never found it busy and one of the times was in Ausgust, it's such a relaxed and chilled hotel. Although you can't walk to MK, you can catch the small launch boat that serves the Poly and the GF for a lovely trip across the lagoon to MK. You get a great view of the fireworks every night, even from the pool. It's recently had a big renovation so it's probably even better than when we last stayed.

We also found that because you're so close to MK, once we got back from days at other parks, we would then go into MK for the evening or to make use of the extra evening hours there.

Ohana is a great resturant and although it isn't a signature is still lovely and very popular. As others may have mentioned, if you wanted a signature resturant you could use the nice walk to the GF and eat at Narcoossee's which gives you a great view of Wishes!

We watched wishes from our balcony which was nice too, this is a view of the MK without zoom from my very old iPhone so you can see you can get a good view. You can't go wrong with either resort it is just what suits you best.

Here's a night view with a bit of zoom, none of the fireworks pics turned out well though.

Thanks again for all the posts. Think I might be coming round to sticking with what I have at Polynesian. I should stop thinking about it really but with 320 days to go I expect I will chop amd change my mind many times!

You are in the wonderful position of not being able to make the wrong choice... you will have a great time if you pick any of the resorts mentioned including the Poly obviously.
