The Disney Vacation Club Preview Center opened at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort revealing details on the new Island Tower opening soon.
Disney Vacation Club Preview Center
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.
Previously, this area was a DVC sales room, and was part of the Wyland Galleries replacement around 2014.
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.
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.
On the opposite wall, there is even more art from the Island Tower and even one picture of people wayfinding across the ocean.
Back on the opposite wall, there is this small cutout with more art of travelers returning home on the beach.
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.
There are two benches in the center of the room for guests to relax while taking in the aesthetics.
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.
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.
