Terri,
I adore the Polynesian, and I am sure you will as well.
If you really want to be in the heart of what is going on at the Polynesian, there are several good choices. Here are my top suggestions, in order of preference;
- Samoa
- Niue
- Hawaii
- Rarotonga
These put you near both the main pool, and the quieter pool. They are also close to the Great Ceremonial House (lobby, monorail, stores, and restaurant building), the marina, and also to the beach where you can watch the Wishes Fireworks!
I am glad to answer any follow-up questions you may have!
Have a magical vacation!
