There’s almost always progress to see at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, which is being refurbished for a summer 2021 reopening. While construction may not be as pretty as the resort’s holiday decorations, it is just as interesting.

More crossbeams have been added to the streamlined structure atop the Great Ceremonial House.

The new version of the structure will have fewer crossbeams, but still reflect the old design.

A construction wall has been put up next to the fencing here, indicating more walls will soon block this area.

If you’re having trouble navigating Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort amidst construction, don’t worry: Maui will guide you.

The crossbeams are also visible from the pool area.

As construction continues, more horizontal and vertical supports will be added.

We spotted some scaffolding on the side of one building.

This is likely for the re-theming of some rooms to Moana.

Another construction wall was visible nearby.

Foliage continues to be removed to make way for the refurbishment of the resort’s porte cochere.
