Recently Disney opened their Disney Vacation Club preview center in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. The DVC preview center is located in the Polynesian’s Grand Ceremonial House, lobby. For the past few weeks, there were walls up preventing guests from entering the DVC preview center during construction.

People on mobility scooters near an elevator lobby with a large digital screen. The walls have decorative wooden panels, and the floor is stone-tiled. A unique branch-like chandelier hangs from the ceiling.

Guests visiting the Polynesian are now able to explore the opportunities that the DVC can offer. Even though the preview center is in the Polynesian, guests will still be able to explore other resorts worldwide.

A wall display featuring framed art and artifacts, including a woven circular piece, a mermaid sculpture, a wooden paddle, an agricultural tool, and a detailed art print.

Unlike some other DVC Preview Centers, there is not a walkable room to preview, rather this space is more of a lounge while surrounded by accouterment from the movie, “Moana” and the future Island Tower next door.

Here is some art directly from the movie “Moana.” Genuinely looks like it was handmade and then framed. There is even Maui’s hook on display. The bottom right image features even more artwork from “Moana” which is sure to excite any “Moana” fan.

A room with two framed artworks on the wall; one abstract piece on the left and a nautical-themed painting on the right. A chandelier with a modern design hangs from the ceiling.

On the opposite wall, there is even more art from the Island Tower and even one picture of people wayfinding across the ocean.

A wall-mounted painting of a seaside village is framed by two decorative light fixtures above a granite countertop in a small room.

Back on the opposite wall, there is this small cutout with more art of travelers returning home on the beach.

A decorative door with a large screen embedded in a wall, displaying a vivid red door with a mouse head symbol at the center. The surrounding area has stone flooring and modern decor.

There is also a magic door that will take you to different locations virtually across Disney properties. We previously saw this doorway in the DVC Welcome Center in Disney Springs.

During our visit, you could visit the Riviera, the Villas at Disneyland Hotel, and more from the Disney Collection.

Two children are in a hotel lobby area; one is sitting on a wooden bench writing, and the other is standing nearby. The lobby has stone flooring and a painting of a boat on the left wall.

There are two benches in the center of the room for guests to relax while taking in the aesthetics.

A sign titled "WAYFINDING HOME" explains Polynesian wayfinding and its historical significance. It highlights traditional Polynesian voyaging and invites visitors to explore their journeys.

Here is a sign explaining the importance of the design choices made in this space. The gallery is meant to celebrate the tradition of the Polynesian experience through Melanesian art.

Interior view of a hotel with a lobby featuring seating on the left and a gift shop on the right; stone flooring and wooden beams are prominent.

Here is the view from the back of the preview center. If you walk straight out of the left door you end up back in the Polynesian lobby. If you go straight from the right door you will end up in Boutiki.
