Our timing for a day at this particular park couldn’t have been better, as this morning brought news that the gigantic “Harmonious” centerpiece had been put in place.

PHOTOS – Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Construction and Merchandise

Sometimes you just need to escape to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. It’s a popular spot for our field team to take a break at when they’re at the Magic Kingdom on a hot day. Such was the case earlier this week for both Chrissy and Ivonne. Here’s what each of them saw during their individual visits to this beloved resort.

Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Ceremonial House Construction – February 26, 2021

Right now the Great Ceremonial House is under major construction out front. The exterior of this iconic building is getting a makeover. Currently the Resort Monorail does not stop at this resort.

The inside of the Great Ceremonial House is not disturbed by the construction all that much. The BouTiki merchandise shop on the first floor is one of my favorite shops in all of Walt Disney World. The name is adorable, the display window at the shop’s entrance is neat, and it is so much fun to see if people spot the two tikis playing hide and seek near one of the registers.

Chrissy spotted some great merchandise featuring The Enchanted Tiki Room, the Orange Bird, and Olu the Sea Turtle who hails from Disney’s Aulani Resort.

Hey everyone, welcome to another day at the Magic Kingdom! We’d like to say some pretty amazing stuff is happening, but to be honest, it’s rather just “business as usual” at the park today. With monorails running smoothly as well as the fairy boats, the bus we took to the park was rather empty and pretty expedient getting us to the park. In fact, we didn’t have to wait at all to board a bus, and the trip was much […]
