So I have a DVC reservation booked for this january, we were only able to secure 5 nights and would love to extend it 2 more nights. If I were to book a "villa studio room" what are the chances that we would be able to just stay in the same room? What are the steps I would go through to request that?
Thank in advance
When both are cash reservations booked through Disney (same room type), you can have the reservations linked with a request to keep the same room. When you check in for the first reservation, tell the CM you have a continuing reservation and would like to keep the same room if possible. However, if one is booked with points and the other cash, I'm not sure how that would work as I don't have experience with DVC/points, but hopefully others will be able to help

Hi everyone!
I'm interested in staying in the Samoa longhouse and would like a view of the lava pool and lagoon. Does anyone know if the king rooms face that direction or do they only face the direction of the oasis pool?
Thanks!
One side of Samoa overlooks the Lava pool and the other side overlooks the Oasis pool. You might be able to see a glimpse of the lagoon looking to the side, but it wouldn't be a direct LV. I think there's a map on the first page of this thread that will show you which longhouses face the lagoon (although it wouldn't specify king rooms).
Here at the Poly now. We checked in on Sunday. We are in Fiji 3rd floor Marina side. Great View!
I was very disappointed to learn that the grown-up grilled cheese is gone. I know it wasn't on the menu at Captain Cook's anymore but you could still get it. I know I ate a couple last year.
Heading to Ohana for dinner in about half-an-hour!
Hope you're having a great time!

Hello! I have never stayed at the Poly and am thinking about booking it. It will be just me and my DH for our anniversary in May 2017.
Pros and Cons?
I don't have any cons for the Poly, but we love it the following reasons:
- beautiful grounds
- great dining options
- beach for watching fireworks
- relaxing, tropical atmosphere
- great views of the castle
- large, spacious rooms
- convenient for getting to MK/Epcot
I think the Poly is a great resort for an anniversary trip

Anyone know if the elevators in the DVC longhouse are any bigger than the ones in Aotearoa?
I've got three kids. This will be our third stay at the Poly but first in DVC. We've stayed in the first floor the past two years in part because those elevators wouldn't fit a double stroller, six year old and mon and dad!
So excited to get back to the Poly!!!! Come on January 28, 2017!! It seems like an eternity away!!!!
I can't answer about the elevators, but wanted to say I hope you have a great trip. January will be here before you know it

Hello there!
We are DVC members staying at the Poly in October and both love to start the day with an early morning swim.
Is that even going to be possible?
Upon searching, I see that in the off season that the pool doesn't open until 10am which would be a huge shame
Are you not allowed to access even the quiet pool at around 8am?
Thanks for your help!
Hope you have a great time! I can't help with the pool hours, but hopefully others will be able to answer
