Disney's Polynesian Resort Dining Location Now Closed Indefinitely
A popular lounge and dining location is now closed, with no reopening date. See why this, along with several other closures, may make you rethink your plans to stay at this resort.
Disney's Polynesian Resort
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort is a deluxe Magic Kingdom Area resort in Walt Disney World. The last few years have featured a great deal of change at the Polynesian, one of Walt Disney World's flagship resorts.
We have seen a Moana room makeover, DVC room refreshes, club level enhancements, a new entrance and monorail platform, and the announcement of a DVC expansion at the resort.
These new additions have brought many changes for guests staying at and visiting Disney's Polynesian Village Resort for dining reservations.
Trader Sam's Tikki Terrace Closed
Trader Sam's is a popular spot for many guests visiting Disney's Polynesian Resort. The good news is that the indoor bar better known as the Trader Sam's Grog Grotto remains open.
The bad news is that the outdoor extension better known as Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace is currently closed. Disney has not shared a reopening date for this popular dining location.
Guests love enjoying appetizers and beverages at Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace while enjoying the beautiful views of this Resort.
Disney Transportation Closure
The current Walt Disney World calendar extends until June 11, 2026. There are no operating hours listed for Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace from now until June 11th.
Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace is now closed indefinitely.
Along with this closure, Disney alerted guests driving to Disney's Polynesian Resort that the previous entrance is now reserved for bus transportation. Boat transportation will also close at Disney's Polynesian Resort starting next month.
