Walt Disney World has shared new details regarding Island Tower – the new 10-story resort tower currently under construction at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows. According to Disney, the new tower – first announced in 2022 and projected to open in December 2024 – will overlook the Seven Seas Lagoon and will take guests on a storytelling journey that brings to life the spirit of Polynesia, the natural world, and of course, the magic of Disney.
Like the rest of Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, Island Tower will be within convenient walking distance to the Disney Monorail, for easy access to visit Magic Kingdom and Epcot.
The exterior of the tower will feature traditional Polynesian tattoo designs, including “a gorgeous Manta Ray that symbolizes freedom, protection and grace in the Polynesian culture. The Manta Ray is also revered as a guardian of the family, kind of like Gramma Tala in the Walt Disney Animation Studios film Moana.
