Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom skyline is set to transform with the debut of the Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort in December 2024. This new addition will bolster the resort’s room offerings with 268 Disney Vacation Club (DVC) rooms, enhancing its iconic South Pacific theme. We now have more details about this new tower thanks to a recent article published in Forbes.

Since its opening in 1971, the Polynesian Village Resort has evolved, currently featuring 484 non-timeshare rooms and 380 DVC accommodations, including exclusive overwater bungalows. The new Island Tower will add 268 villas to the resort, allowing existing DVC members at the Polynesian Villas & Bungalows to use their points without purchasing a new contract.

Designed to echo the rich heritage of Polynesian culture, the 10-story Island Tower will house a diverse range of accommodations from deluxe studios to two-bedroom penthouse villas. Each room is crafted to offer spectacular views of the Magic Kingdom across the Seven Seas Lagoon, with interior designs that pay homage to Polynesian storytelling and environmental sustainability.

Highlights of the tower include an art-filled lobby featuring sculptures from recycled materials and chandeliers of living moss, celebrating the elements of water, earth, wind, and fire. The artwork also subtly nods to Disney stories, including ‘Moana’ and works by Disney Legend Mary Blair, created by contemporary Polynesian artists.

Sustainability is at the core of the Island Tower’s construction, aligning with Disney’s 2030 environmental goals such as achieving net zero emissions, zero waste to landfill, and 100% zero-carbon electricity. Innovative building techniques like off-site prefabrication and the installation of the first all-electric kitchen at a Walt Disney World resort are expected to reduce energy usage by approximately 30%.
