Does anyone know if the sea raycers are available to rent yet? We're headed to the Poly next month.
That's kind of sad if they do. We have enjoyed them many times. Thanks for the infoNo, they are not back yet. There have been seemingly consist rumors around that they may never come back, but obviously TBD.
Looking to put in my room request soon... any Rarotonga updates? Was hoping for that building as we have booked standard view (hotel) and would like to be close to TTC. Is Rarotonga open yet?
Right- because I want to pay $800/night to look at your trash and dirty bedding. Maybe call or ask at the front desk for housekeeping to do those things?Checking in on 8/29. Reading about limited room service during stays.
If I left my trash in the hall way when it gets full on a daily basis I'm assuming they'll have no choice but to take it. We'll be packing extra trash bags.
Also, changing linens. If I were to strip the sheets off the bed midweek and toss them in the hallway I assume they would have no choice but to change them.
I'd leave a generous tip of course...

I'll second Moorea..we had room 3020 lagoon view and it was awesome...close to the TTC too, just wish the epcot monorail wasw open end of June when we were thereI like to Moorea Building, because it's close to the TTC, the beach, and the parking lot. As others said, Tokelau is also good. I did not get my room request this trip, partly because there is a lot of construction going on and 1.5 DVC buildings are out of service.
Exactly the reason why they will pick it up. For $800 a night you shouldn't have to ask.
How about a phone call to the front desk asking for a pickup, rather than tossing dirty trash and bed sheets into a public hallway?

I may be coming into this late, but we've stayed at the Polynesian Villas twice during covid. Both times we waived having our room serviced daily but both times they came by almost everyday to pickup garbage. Just wanted to offer that up. Assuming they are still doing that but not positive. Hope that helps....Please, I beg you do, not do this!
While I am in total agreement that trash should be picked up everyday at the price they charge (why oh why aren’t they doing this???) leaving your own trash in the hallway is not the answer. Sure it will get picked up eventually, as in hours later. In the meantime, all your neighbors will have to walk past and around it, and endure whatever odor or pests it generates.
I feel very strongly about this after my recent stay at the GF. Our next-door neighbors had a baby, and ate many takeout meals in their room. Every day they left their stinky diapers and food containers in the hallway. We were in a corner room and our door was at a right angle to theirs. We had to literally step over their disgusting, unsanitary trash to get inside our door. One time I had to kick it out of the way. At the GF. Theme park view. We were so glad when they checked out.
Disney is definitely in the wrong here by not providing daily trash removal. But please be considerate of your fellow guests. If you have anything super-stinky (like diapers or leftover tuna sandwiches), there are outdoor receptacles near all the buildings. Other stuff — please bag it up and put it somewhere out of the way in your room until it can be picked up. And please complain to the front desk as much as you like. Over and over. Every day. They need to fix this awful situation ASAP.
Regarding the sheets, they will bring you fresh ones but they will not put them on for you. Another service cut “due to Covid.” Feel free to let Disney know of your displeasure about this also. Hopefully they will eventually return to offering decent service.
Sorry about the soapbox. Rant over.

So I thought I would update our experience. We went to AK last Saturday.Different strokes for different folks, and it's probably splitting hairs either way, but I'd personally opt for the bus. Get there around 90 minutes PPO and just ride it out. I've been in that long line of cars trying to get through the gates at rope drop.... and the eternity drive that is getting through the DAK parking lot to the rideshare drop off, and to me it's not that fun when minutes count.
Both have uncontrollable variables of course, but I give the edge to the bus in this circumstance.
