Disney Vacation Club announces the newest DVC addition at the Polynesian Village Resort
Today, Disney Vacation Club announced the newest DVC resort will be located at the existing Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. Although the specific location was not announced, it appears that the new resort will be located at Luau Cove, the current site of Disney’s Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show. The additions are expected to open in 2024.
The existing Disney Polynesian Villas and Bungalows house 360 Studios located in Tokelau, Moorea, and Pago Pago longhouses. In addition, there are 20 one of a kind Bungalows over the waters of Seven Seas Lagoon.
The press release today from VP of DVC, Bill Diercksen :
Orlando, FL (March 15, 2022) – Today, Disney Vacation Club announced proposed plans to develop new Disney Vacation Club villas at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
“It’s no secret that our Members and Guests love the monorail resorts at Walt Disney World,” said Bill Diercksen, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Vacation Club. “Expanding our Disney Vacation Club offerings at the Polynesian would give our Members and Guests yet another incredible option for staying close to the magic while making vacation memories that last a lifetime.”
Inspired by the early concepts for Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, the Imagineers of today are honoring the past while furthering the resort story with this innovative addition. Projected to open in late 2024, the proposed vacation ownership property would complement the existing resort and evoke the spirit of the Pacific Islands.
Situated on the shores of Seven Seas Lagoon, the proposed property would join the rest of the resort in offering stunning views of the Magic Kingdom. Proposed plans would offer additional rooms, new recreation offerings and dining options. More information and project details will be shared at a later date.
Since 2015, Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows has been a favorite resort destination, offering an island paradise in the middle of the magic. Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows currently has 380 Disney Vacation Club villas, including the largest Deluxe Studios at any Disney Vacation Club resort at Walt Disney World and unique two-bedroom Bora Bora Bungalows, located over the waters of the Seven Seas Lagoon – the first of their kind at Disney.
New resort location will be at Luau Cove, former home of the Disney’s Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show. (Locations “L”)
