Polynesian beach and towels

Gelatoni · 15 Jun 18, 01:08 PM

Hi All,

Has anyone used the beach at the Poly? Do you need to take a towel from the room to the sunloungers or are there some provided?

Any tips on a nice quiet spot to view Happily Ever After on the beach?

Hey there, we just took towels from the pool tbh...defo don’t need to take them from your room, can’t remember seeing any on the beach but there may have been.
No idea of a quiet space on the beach though, sorry as we never got round to watching the fireworks in the whole 17 nights 😮...we’ll just need to go back 😀

Ah thank you, they don't mind you taking towels away from the pool area then.

17 nights at the Poly. Wow

We watched the fireworks from the beach one night after a meal at Ohanas. We just turned right as we got to the beach and found some sunbeds, wasnt too busy.
Im not sure it will be as good now though as you will miss out on all the castle projections, i would only do it if i had already seen it from close up

This will be our 3rd visit in a year so trying something different. Watched it from Top of the World lounge last time and loved it, albeit without the projections.

Pool area is gated now so if you are not staying there you won’t be able to enter the pool
area.
When we stayed there we took towels from pool area on to the beach, it wasn’t gated at that point and loads of visitors did the same.

Enjoy. It will be so much better now the pool is gated. We spent 17 nights there on ds’s first trip to Wdw. He enjoyed swimming in the lava pool while the fireworks were going off.
