Construction Update: Latest Look at DVC Villa Construction at the Poly
Our MickeyBlogger was making the rounds at Walt Disney world today and managed to get some fantastic images of the construction of the DVC villas at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort while on the Monorail.
If you’ve been following along with us here at MickeyBlog, you’ll know that this beloved deluxe monorail resort is in the process of expanding their Disney Vacation Club accommodation.
Post COVID, Disney decided not to reopen the Spirit of Aloha dinner show that took place at Disney’s Polynesian Resort.
Instead they decided to demolish the building for Spirit of Aloha and use the lot to expand their DVC offerings.
Disney started the demolition last year at the Polynesian and as you can see from these images, it is still ongoing.
There were some setbacks due to the hurricanes last year which flooded the lot.
As you can see from these photos taken from the Walt Disney World monorail, the construction site is right along the shoreline at the Polynesian.
At the moment construction doesn’t look as if its been started. However the area has been cleared.
According to Disney, the newest vacation club tower will open in 2024.
Disney’s Polynesian Resort is currently home to Disney Vacation Club studios as well as over-the-water bungalows.
It is expected that the new tower will add more variety including 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom villas.
Disney has also previously said that the area will be home to new dining experiences and a new pool area.
Since 2015, Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows has been home to 380 Disney Vacation Club villas. Here’s a quick video we took of the construction site at the Polynesian.
We will continue to follow this project sending you regular updates through 2023 so keep following along with us!
