There is a big expansion happening at the Disney Vacation Club Villas at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, featuring a new tower that brings to life the spirit of Polynesia.
In this story, we are going to explain everything you need to know about the Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, as well as all the changes coming to this resort in the next few years.
The outside of the resort will include “beautiful designs created exclusively for the exterior, including a gorgeous Manta Ray that symbolizes freedom, protection and grace.”
When you step inside the lobby, the art panel installation on the ceiling is a highlight and inspired by several Polynesian Islands showcasing the native wildlife to that island.
These include preserved moss walls and sculptures made from recycled fishing nets, each piece being inspired by the spirit of conservation and embody the rich cultures of Polynesia.
While the new updates from Disney have slightly improved our opinion of the design, it still looks pretty plain, and without the incredible theming we are used to from the Polynesian.
