Vibrant Villas for Families of Different Sizes with Breathtaking Views

Traveling with a small group? You can enjoy a cozy duo studio for two or a deluxe studio that sleeps up to four.

Need more room to stretch out? One- and two-bedroom villas are perfect for larger groups, sleeping five and nine respectively. The villas come complete with a full kitchen, comfy living area, outdoor patio, and even a washer and dryer.

Disney Vacation Club is debuting a stunning new type of accommodation in the new Tower: two-bedroom penthouse villas. Sleeping up to eight guests, these spaces will boast a spacious living room, dining room and gorgeous views of the Seven Seas Lagoon and Magic Kingdom park or Disney’s Oak Trail and Magnolia Golf Courses.

Escape in the Terrace Gardens

Get ready to relax in four tropical garden hideaways, exclusively for guests and members staying at the tower. Each space will be inspired by the lush beauty of the Polynesian Islands and will offer unbeatable views of Walt Disney World Resort.

You will be able to catch the Magic Kingdom fireworks from two Terrace Gardens facing the park and a spectacular sunset over Disney’s scenic golf courses from the other two gardens. Trust us—you’ll want to see it to believe it!

Finding the Way…to More Play  

Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows has long been a fan-favorite with close proximity to Magic Kingdom, whimsical pools, a collection of beloved restaurants, and, of course, an abundance of DOLE Whip! But get ready to soak up even more fun, because the new tower will be adding some incredible new features.

Guests will be able to unwind at the brand-new Cove Pool area, featuring a zero-entry swimming pool, or let little ones explore “Moana’s Voyage,” a splash area with life-size sculptures of Moana and her iconic canoe. The new tower will also be home to the resort’s first and only fitness center, which is sure to be a welcome addition to the many recreation activities offered today that are included in member and guest stays.

And if you’re still hungry for more, then you will be able to head to our next must-do…

Treat Yourself at Wailulu Bar & Grill

A flavorful journey awaits at Wailulu Bar & Grill, the tower’s new casual dining venue. Drawing inspiration from the rich flavors of the Polynesian islands, the all-day Wailulu menu will offer delicious signature dishes like spiced ham musubi and beef short rib loco moco.

Whether grabbing lunch or settling in for dinner, Wailulu Bar & Grill will be the perfect spot to savor breathtaking views of the Seven Seas Lagoon. Plus, it will be a huge hit for those looking for a new spot to catch the Magic Kingdom fireworks!

Disney World has 1,600 amazing resort cast members ready to welcome you to the new tower beginning on December 17, including a few who originally started at the Polynesian in the 1970s!

And with so many new and future experiences at Walt Disney World, Island Tower is another great option for families vacationing at The Most Magical Place on Earth.
