If you already love staying at Disney’s Polynesian Resort, you are going to love the new Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows! This new accommodation offering will take Guests on a storytelling journey that brings to life the spirit of Polynesia.
Projected to open in December 2024, the proposed 10-story tower overlooking the stunning views of the Seven Seas Lagoon will celebrate the natural world, and of course, the magic of Disney. Island Tower will be within convenient walking distance to the Disney Monorail, making it the resort for those wishing to visit Magic Kingdom Park and EPCOT.
Now, here’s a fun Disney fact that you may have not known before. Did you know that original concept designs for Disney’s Polynesian Resort featured a prominent tower as the heart of the resort? It’s true! Now, Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows will complete the vision created by Disney Imagineers decades ago while embracing the rich culture from the Polynesian Islands.
Guests are sure to notice the beautiful designs created exclusively for the exterior. These include a gorgeous Manta Ray that symbolizes freedom, protection, and grace. Inside the lobby, you will be greeted by an art panel installation on the ceiling. Inspired by several Polynesian Islands, showcasing wildlife native to each locale, it looks to be an absolutely stunning piece! Each animal holds a strong connection to the islands and symbolizes values important to Polynesians.
Walt Disney Imagineering collaborated with over a dozen artists to create unique artworks that will be displayed throughout the resort. From preserved moss walls to sculptures made from recycled fishing nets, each piece will be inspired by the spirit of conservation and embody the rich cultures of Polynesia.
All the Details
Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows will feature a variety of room types. Rooms will sleep from two to nine guests, such as duo studios, spacious one- and two-bedroom villas and brand-new two-bedroom penthouse villas.
