    Can I park at the Polynesian if i have dinner Reservations at night but want to go to the park during the day have make our way back to our car there for dinner?

    Hey there, Marykate! 

    I’m so happy to welcome you to planDisney! Your fall visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth will be here before you know it, and I bet you’re getting pretty excited! There’s always so much going on at Walt Disney World Resort, and I’m sure you’re going to have an amazing time soaking it all in. Before you know it, you’ll be walking through those park gates and experiencing the magic for yourself. Hooray!

    How fun that you have a dining reservation at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort! Whether you’re dining at ‘Ohana or Kona Café, you’re in for a treat, as both restaurants offer delicious Polynesian-inspired flavors. My family actually had dinner at ‘Ohana just last month, and it ended up being our favorite meal of the entire trip! Be sure to save a little room for dessert, too. The famous ‘Ohana Bread Pudding is absolutely delicious and, in my opinion, practically worth the reservation all by itself!

    When it comes to parking, you unfortunately won’t be able to leave your car at the Polynesian all day and return for your dinner reservation later. Parking at the Resort is intended for Resort Guests, so you’ll want to make other arrangements for your vehicle. I recommend parking at the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC) instead. Then, after you’ve enjoyed your dinner, you can simply hop on the monorail from the Polynesian and take it directly back to the TTC to pick up your car. 

    Marykate, I hope you have the best vacation! If any other questions come up as you put the finishing touches on your plans, please know you’re always welcome to visit us again here at planDisney.

    See ya real soon,
