Who is this is resort best for?
If you love fantastic theming this resort is for you! From Polynesian rooms and restaurants to fruity drinks (My personal favorite includes fruit, an umbrella, and a back scratcher). Plus this is one of the few places where you can grab a delicious Dole Whip. Grab a drink and watch the fireworks from the beach. Also, this is a great resort if you are looking for convenience. You can hop on the monorail to get to Magic Kingdom or EPCOT in a breeze.
The downside?
This resort can be expensive. Also, the rooms can be spread out in different buildings. So if you aren’t in one of the preferred rooms you might have a hike when you get back at the end of the day. Also, the buses going to the other parks can be shared with other resorts. So this can cause longer wait times or rides to and from the parks.
