"Lush tropical gardens and waterfalls, a white sand beach, and a lagoon swimming pool with a steaming volcano and torch-lit walkways create the illusion of an island paradise."
Travel + Leisure
"Commanding an enviable position on the Seven Seas Lagoon, and a short boat ride from the Magic Kingdom’s front gates, the South Seas–inflected Polynesian is a circa-1971 Disney original."

"You may not think you're in Fiji, but families with kids can have fun pretending in this South Pacific-themed resort directly across the lagoon from the Magic Kingdom."

"Often overlooked as it is not on the main thoroughfare, this casual hotel has plenty to offer, including large comfortable rooms, suites for larger families, and a pool."
Frommer's
"Nicer than its price point should permit, this hotel is clean, impeccably run, attractively appointed in a Spanish style, and located 10 minutes from Disney."

"Very modern lobby, with its glass-roofed, kite-filled tower atrium, muted colors, contemporary furnishings, and linen sheers over floor-to-ceiling windows, is typical of the hotel's low-key elegance."
