The hype
The location and vibes are unbeatable, but the price tag creates massive expectations that the housekeeping and aging buildings sometimes fail to meet.

사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- Direct Monorail and boat access to Magic Kingdom
- The new Island Tower adds modern luxury and a much-needed gym
- Watching fireworks from the pool or beach with piped-in music
한눈에 보기: A tale of two resorts: the beloved, slightly worn-in original longhouses with massive rooms, and the sleek, somewhat sterile new Island Tower that feels like a high-end Marriott dropped into the tropics.
@Raptoradventures님의 리뷰: I stayed in the new Moana-themed studio and it was pure magic. The pebble shower felt like a spa, and walking right out to the gardens from my patio was the best way to start the day. Honestly, I didn't want to leave!

Reality check
Longtime fans miss the 'Disney whimsy' in the new Island Tower, calling it 'sterile' and 'hospital-like,' while new guests love the cleanliness but hate the tiny Duo Studios.
- You have toddlers: Monorail access and the best splash pad (Kiki Tikis) are life-savers
- You need space: Original longhouse studios are the largest on property (approx. 415 sq ft) with two showers
- You are a foodie: 'Ohana, Trader Sam's, and the new Wailulu Bar & Grill are all on-site
청결 & 유지관리
7
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Cash guests get daily service, but DVC renters often complain about overflowing trash by day 3.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally good, but older buildings have reports of mold in grout and 'sewer smells' near drains.
- Maintenance: Aging infrastructure in longhouses (peeling paint, worn carpets) vs. pristine new Island Tower.
- Linens & towels: Standard Disney quality—clean but not luxurious. Towels can be scratchy.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells amazing (hibiscus/bamboo), but some hallways have a lingering musty/damp smell.

객실 지니
최고의 선택
- Tokelau Longhouse: Central location, larger balconies, quieter than Moorea
- Island Tower 'Theme Park View': Guaranteed fireworks view, brand new soundproofing
- Pago Pago: If you want a short walk to the TTC for the Epcot monorail
피해야 할 객실

자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is the construction finished?
Partially. The Island Tower is open, but work on the main entrance and bus loop continues through 2026.
Can I walk to Magic Kingdom?
Yes! The walkway reopened in Dec 2024. It's a scenic ~20-minute walk past the Grand Floridian.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the Lava Pool and the new Cove Pool are heated to 82°F year-round.
Do the rooms have coffee makers?
Yes, standard studios have a Cuisinart dual-sided brewer (pod and carafe); Island Tower rooms have Keurigs.
Is there a resort fee?
No. Disney owned resorts do not charge resort fees, and self-parking is now free for guests.
Are the Bungalows worth it?
Only for the bucket list. They are incredibly loud (ferry horns) and offer zero privacy from the boats, despite the $3,000+ price tag.
내부자 팁
- ✨
The 'Wayfinder Burger' at the new Wailulu Bar & Grill is being called one of the best on property.
- ✨
You can watch the fireworks from the beach for free—music is piped in.
- ✨
Use the secret entrance to the Lava Pool near the Pineapple Lanai to skip the main gate crowd.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'Bugs on the Door' phenomenon: Interior hallways in older buildings (like Tokelau) have had recent infestation complaints.
💡The new Island Tower pool is tiny and underwhelming compared to the main Lava Pool.
💡You have to walk outside to get to almost everything—lobby, food, monorail—which sucks in July rainstorms.
💡The 'Duo Studios' in the new tower are shockingly small—basically a hallway with a bed.
💡The ferry horn isn't just a noise; it's a vibration you feel in the waterfront rooms.
