Hi, Lisa!
Arriving at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort is pretty easy. Just follow the directions to the Magic Kingdom for your Orlando area hotel. Once you reach the Cast Members at the entrance of the Magic Kingdom entry way, just let them know that you have an Advanced Dining Reservation. They will allow you to head to the resort. Follow the signs to
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, and let the Cast Member at the security checkpoint know of you 11:30am reservation and they will allow you to park complimentary.
To accommodate your mother, pull up to the front door of the resort and have her wait in the lobby for you to park your park. Find the nearest handicap parking space. Once you make it to the lobby, you can then head upstairs with your mom! Ask any Cast Member to point you in the direction of the elevator.
Have the most magical time with your family
'Ohana! If you have more questions, please stop by and visit with the Disney Parks Moms Panel again soon!
Oh and ask any Cast Member for a celebration button! I'm sure there's something special you could be celebrating, including a very merry unbirthday!
Happy planning, Lisa!
