What is this fancy place?

Get ready to experience fanciness from the future! The Contemporary Resort is Tomorrowland’s counterpart, and has all the sleek lines, wavy lights, indoor monorail tracks, and futuristic beauty one could ask for. It opened in 1971 (so one of the first on-site hotels), and is located on the man-made Seven Seas Lagoon. It provides monorail, boat and bus transportation.

Disney's Polynesian Resort

Disney’s Polynesian Resort

What is this fancy place?

Disney’s Polynesian Resort opened in 1971, as one of the first on-site hotels. It sits on the man-made Seven Seas Lagoon, and provides boat, bus and monorail transportation. Like other Lagoon resorts, the Polynesian corresponds to a land in the Magic Kingdom, and is Adventureland’s counterpart. The Polynesian is a South Seas inspired resort; the resort’s main building is the Great Ceremonial House, and the rest of the hotel is broken up into 11 longhouses, named after islands of Polynesia.  The Polynesian is also home to the luau and fire show, Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show.
