"Commanding an enviable position on the Seven Seas Lagoon, and a short boat ride from the Magic Kingdom’s front gates, the South Seas–inflected Polynesian is a circa-1971 Disney original." Full review

Fodor's Fodor's
"Very modern lobby, with its glass-roofed, kite-filled tower atrium, muted colors, contemporary furnishings, and linen sheers over floor-to-ceiling windows, is typical of the hotel's low-key elegance." Full review
