To celebrate the pending opening of Disney’s Aulani Resort at Ko’olina I wanted to re-visit Disney’s first Hawaiian destination, the Polynesian Resort. Originally called Disney’s Polynesian Village it holds the distinction of being one of the first two hotels at WDW. Did you know that John Lennon signed the paperwork that officially broke up the Beatles at the Polynesian Village on December 29, 1974? And… I spent my honeymoon there just nine months later? OMG!!! Thank goodness this resort welcome booklet is from 1994, a scant 20 years later. Talk about scant, this booklet is only 6 by 3 3/4″ and has a pouch to put your room key in. But this booklet is also large with 20 pages of information. It has many important tidbits such as how to use the hotels phones, where to develop your film, where you can send a Telegram, and how you can rent a pager! Want to see the whole thing? Click HERE and enjoy!

Love the old stuff. I would love to add the old map to my site. I try and get all the old pics, menus and documents from the resort to put on the site. I am working on a page that shows things that are gone from the resort.
Keep up the good work.
Aloha
Steve
