Name: Email: One of the exhibits we visited was a showcase of Disney Vacation Club properties, and on display was some NEW concept art for the upcoming Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. We’ve been watching the construction of this project for a while, but now we’ve got a closer look at what we can expect when it’s completed! The concept art display The concept art and promotional photos show off quite a few areas of the resort that may be of interest to you! First up, there’s a Moana-themed splash pad in the pool area. It’s made to look like Moana’s boat! Moana splash pad During a recent visit to the construction site, we actually spotted what appears to be the sail for the splash pad. They’re getting ready! Is that what we think it is?! Another photo that caught our eye was this concept art of what looks to be a restaurant. It has a very aquatic, beachy vibe with fish “swimming” along the ceiling and decor that reminds us of seaweed. Massive windows show a view to the outside of the resort. Restaurant It looks like the restaurant may have some outdoor seating as well. There’s an alternate view with tables outdoors underneath a covered patio. The “infinity” fountains really add to that tropical look. Outdoor seating If you look at the bottom of the building when visiting the construction site, the windows along the ground look very similar to the restaurant setup. They would have a great view of the water! The windows at the bottom look like they could be the restaurant! Among the common spaces featured in the concept art, we spotted a photo that looks like a lobby or open lounging area. There’s a multi-story room with a variety of seating, as well as some water features and interesting lighting. Another piece of concept art As to where this area could be located, we spotted a section of the building with a multi-story window display. Could this be the new lobby? The lobby? Of course, we also got some concept art featuring the rooms in the new tower. One picture looks to show one of the larger villas, with a mother and son cooking in the kitchen. Inside the rooms Another photo shows off what appears to be a smaller room, this time featuring a seating area with a Murphy bed. Inside a room And of course, Disney had exterior concept art on display as well. This is the view of the hotel from the outside! It looks like there will be lounging spaces outdoors where guests can relax and unwind.
