In today's vlog we head to Walt Disney World's Polynesian Village Resort to check in for our Disney Bucket List staycation! We were so excited to check into our Polynesian Bora Bora Bungalow! We never thought this was a place we'd ever get to actually stay! We start our trip with a full and detailed tour of the bungalow followed by some lunch at Capt Cooks the quick service restaurant located at the Polynesian. Then we got dinner to go from Kona Cafe which we enjoyed back in out bungalow. We show you around the resort a little bit and then we end out the night. We can't wait to share the rest of our staycation with you! We hope you enjoyed the tour and we will see you tomorrow with another staycation video!

Deja vu... Tim points out lobby bar he didn’t realize was there... Same bar he points out almost 2 years ago that he also didn’t know was there, while doing resort tours. 🤣😂
Tim’s got a lot of Disney miles on him.
8:07 That is uti! the goddess of fishing. She stood on top of the enchanted tiki room in California! the bird on top of her is the barker parrot, who would call guests in, again, like the one in the pirates of the carribean in California
Edit: I forgot to add something! The torch she holds is part of her story. She taught Polynesian mortals how to fish by holding a torch over their heads to lure the fish to the light! the torch was also lit when she stood on top of the tiki room!
Yeah, what this person said. This is the correct answer. I was gonna say it myself then spotted this. Good work, Stinko!
I couldn't remember her name but yeah, this!!!
AND I found that Tiki at 1:20 in a Tracker Video from 2 years ago called Walt Disney World Polynesian Village Resort Tour | Hotel Grounds, Pools & Food Locations.
Fun fact about the separate commodes and showers: across Polynesia, it is a massive faux pas to have a commode and a shower in the same room. The commode is Tapu (taboo or negative energy) for obvious reasons; it’s a waste receptacle. Whereas the shower is Noa (good/positive energy) because you use it for cleansing. And the two are not allowed to mix, since one neutralises the other. Most modern buildings in NZ try to incorporate this aspect into their construction.
I really like that Disney was sensitive to the cultural aspects, even something that’s subtle enough that if you weren’t familiar with Polynesian culture, you wouldn’t think it was a deliberate decision.

Really enjoying the "after the trip" room tour. What a great idea to talk about things that worked and things that didn't.
totally agree with why you like this way of giving the tour, but do you not enjoy just seeing the pristine state of the room upon arrival, and the excitement of whats to come? when the tour is given after the stay, the negatives are kind of a bummer. now idk about you, but i am not trying to book a bungalow anytime in the near future, so i enjoy the positivity of just living vicariously, rather than if I were to book any time soon!
Completely agree!
I don't think this little baby could get any cuter. He just makes me smile. LOVE his shirt. Such a great classy family.
I can't believe Jackson is so big! He looks SO adorable in his little Hawaiian shirt!
So I definitely like the cabins at Wilderness Lodge better! Especially because of the screened in area with no bugs and a hot tub.
@@cynthiaabbott1945 There's actually a video here on RUclips about why you don't see mosquitoes in Disney World.
Me too
@ Cynthia Abbot His Name is Tim. There is A Video on youtube about The No Mosquitos at Disney world in A RUclips video on Midway to Main Street. I don’t understand how people can surrive bugs in there place they are staying I think if you are staying at the Poly in A Inside room it’s better and some people may Disagree but why would you want to stay in A Bunglow When there are bugs and insects in A Polynesian Bunglow I Agree with you.
I feel they learned from their "mistakes" in the bungalows and corrected them in the Wilderness Lodge cabins
Who else was waiting for this one ALL day!!??
I just now realized that Adam the Woo is doing staycation hotels videos the other coast for Disneyland, Knotts, and Universal as well. So cool.
I love the "now its time to help" ending. It is really spotlighting a lot of good causes.
Yes, I love it! 👏👏👏
so when I did my college program in 2018 me and my friends walked around the three resorts by the MK and we went to the Polynesian and we wanted to take a photo on the beach and so we asked this lady if she could take our photo and she did! After the photo we talked to her for a bit and she said how she is staying in the bungalows with her husband and daughter and she asked us if we wanted to take photos on the porch of her bungalow! we were so excited and she gave us a whole tour of their place and the husband and daughter were so confused as to why their wife/mom brought it a bunch of girls in their early 20s to take photos on their porch swing and hot tub 😂 but it was so amazing and I want to stay here one day!
I met my husband on our college program back in 2003. We are still crazy Disney people. Last year we finally got the chance to stay in a Bungalow. It was amazing.
That artwork is beautiful. Just so realistic and Disney of them to put all the woodwork and real art pieces inside.. can’t get better than Disney.. honestly!
Whatever spider made that web in front of the light was a smart boi! He doesn’t even have to try.
The character in the painting is Uti, goddess of fishing!!
Before the tiki room facade in Disneyland collapsed, she was in a canoe above it. She holds a torch that in the beginnings of Disneyland was lit 24/7.
I love living vicariously through this family 😂
The last thought I’d have while staying at Disney is “hmm I wonder how much I weigh.? Better get on that scale.” 😂😂
I read somewhere that they include the scales so that guests can weigh their luggage.
Yep, it's to weigh your luggage. Last thing you need is the extra charge you get when it is overweight.
It was a joke y’all. 😂😂
The Tiki Goddess that you keep seeing is Uti and used to be on the exterior of the Enchanted Tiki Room in Disneyland.
I’ve been feeling horrible recently and your videos cheer me up so much. Thank you!
The tour of the room after the stay was a cool idea. I liked it! I'm also loving these staycation videos in general.
Also, Jackson does look like such a little grown adult in that outfit and those shoes! He's so unbelievably adorable.
Hey! that's me and my wife at 32:09 . We are at the table on the left hand side with the server talking to us. We got to meet Tim on way out! Was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation! We have watched Tim and Jen for years, they are like part of our family. Every day I come home and ask my wife "What are Tim and Jen up to today?" and then we watch their vlog. They are just so full of positivity, which is something we all desperately need right now! And, Jackson is so adorable he always makes us smile. Keep up the good work guys!
“Shag” is the name of the artist who’s work u see all over the Polynesian, he does a lot of collaborations with disney. and i go to high school with his son LOL
The amount of times you said "phenomenal" perfectly is amazing. I have to stop and really think about it. Every time.
Love your videos, staying at a bungalow is my dream. We faithfully follow your videos and love them! With all that's going on and compromised kiddos I'm not sure when we'll get back to Disney, but thankfully we have you to bring that to us. Whenever I'm having a bad day, I binge watch your videos! We also have a 1 yr old who loves Jackson. She squeals in delight when she sees him, I think she has her first crush!
We were the people you met who recommended the lobster mac and cheese and the short ribs. You were so kind to take time out of your day to talk to us for a few minutes! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for including the spider review in the hotel. I’m really Squimish about those things and really appreciate it.
this is my comfort video I keep coming back!!
So happy to be watching this. We took a direct hit from hurricane Sally. Just got power back after 5 days ❤ i need my disney connection!!
Omg his little magic band!
I squealed with delight at Jackson's outfit! The tiny shoes! The shirt! So cute!
Jackson is absolutely adorable!! We can't get enough of him!!
By the Way, Jackson lookin’ cool in his Hawaiian Shirt.
Stephen Reed Yeah, and he’s lookin COOL, too!
I’m 18 and we go to Disney 2 times a year. I’ve slept in that lol o and stitch little bed over 13 times in my life😂 it’s so peaceful looking at that artwork while falling asleep and hearing the water and the poly ambiance
Jenn I just have to say you look especially beautiful in your tropical outfit at the beginning of the video!
Glad to see you trackers out living your best life at Disney. We were juststaying at Tokelau at Poly and its so empty. Taking in every minute and looking forward to more normal resort days.
The Thai meatballs are one of my favorites! Too bad it didn’t agree with you. Love the Poly. We go every year. The artwork in the dvc rooms is the same paintings Hope you have fun.
Genius move doing the tour at the end so you can share everything that you learned!
Kona Cafe is sooooo delicious! I love love love the potstickers!!!! I want some now!
You just look so tan and youthful in the warmer light!!! Jackson is getting SO big!!!! Adorable!!!
I love that you are giving Jackson real food!!! That’s awesome!!
Very nice bungalow! I really enjoy seeing your staycations and get to see the types of rooms/cabins at the resorts. Great vlog!
I love this video! It is very informative. It would be great if you guys could take advantage of the low crowd and do more of these. Would love to see you three at other resort staycations and trying the food at those resorts like Bay Lake Tower, Grand Floridian, Beach Club, Copper Creek, etc..... You guys are very informative on room details and restaurant details and activity details. We love seeing what is currently going on there with the low crowd numbers, so please consider more staycations. You guys are Awesome!
So happy you guys got to check off another bucket list stay. We rode on the Joe Potter this morning and saw Tim and Jackson waving at the boats. My husband yelled and said good morning to you. Hope you had a magical stay!!
Thank you guys for sharing your lives with all of your fans! You are such a wonderful family and I love watching all your videos!
God, I love this family. While I was eating sand till I was 8yo, my friend Jackson is living the life chewing magic bands!! I wonder if is too late for them to adopt me, I mean, it is free to dream... Regardsssss from Brazil
luckily for disney they’ll never go bankrupt with you being there 😂
Lol, I love that I think two desserts is ok any day, not just on vacation! 😉
Happily ever.... PEW PEW! The best
The hotel stays you guys do are amazing thank you for sharing
I think you guys are transitioning towards 1 nap a day. Loved that period. One 2 hour nap per day at lunchtime. Heaven!
Jackson’s little Hawaiian shirt and little magic band and little shoes 🥺😭
Have not watched your videos in a long while and LOOK AT JACKSON!!! He’s so big already!! 😍😍😍
We saw the trackers at capt cooks and they are so nice!! Was afraid to ask for a picture during the social distance time but Jen was nice enough to stop what she was doing and talk to us for a few minutes while getting our food!
OMG Jackson's growing so fast. He's just so cute with his hawaian outfit I could eat him up! 😍
"I don't know what these baskets are for." and then "sorry, these are our towels", pointing to the towels on the floor, right next to the empty basket. LOL. I'm guessing it was a basket/hamper for towels.
Thanks for the tour! I’m a little bummed about the food and the bugs! 💝
The other day I went back and rewatched your pregnancy announcement and birth videos. I cried the entire time, Jenn, you are so strong and amazing! Seeing y’all so happy visiting resorts, and seeing Jackson so big and healthy, is so amazing 🧡🧡🧡
I really enjoy these longer videos, the world is tough right now and the longer the break.... the better.
Really love the staycation vlogs 😊
It’s so interesting to get to see inside some of these places ❤️ thank you xx
Last year we ate at Captain Cook's, it was okay, however we then sat on the beach to the left of your cabin and watched the fireworks while eating a Dole whip, magical memories!
Doing the room tour after your stay is a FANTASTIC idea, love it!! 👏
I am loving these Disney staycation vlogs! It makes me want to stay at all of these places!
That veiw from the patio is gorgeous! I love those swings❤️ Looks like a great little hideaway to just relax. It's so awesome to get away to such a beautiful place without being far from home. Huge hugs and love to you guys xoxo
That microwave/oven combo is an awesome addition. I had one in my house up north in addition to my regular stove and one memorable Thanksgiving where we had dozens of people, that extra oven made the cooking possible. It's good to know those bungalows have that option. Very nice. Here's to one day being able to host a large celebratory dinner somewhere! I love your presentation.
Haha Jen's face when Tim was explaining they were jumping spiders that were inside is exactly how I think my face would be haha. Love the tour being from after the stay.
I want to stay there sooo bad!! Glad I get to live vicariously through you guys.
Jackson’s outfit is definitely BEYOND adorable! Teeny baby shoes kill me, lol. 😍
We’ve been wanting to stay in a bungalow at the Poly for so long! While it looks pretty awesome, the bugs turn me off a little. The cabin seemed much nicer to sit outdoors because it was screened. Maybe we’ll stay at the Poly in a regular room 🤷🏼♀️
That was my concern with the bungalows. Too many bugs from the water!
Life Lately We stayed in one in August and there were no bugs.
Nancy Small That’s good to know! Thank you! The bungalow is beautiful and I really would love to stay in one someday. Hopefully when I do there will be NO bugs! 😄
Gregg B I agree, they’re high rent! Thats another reason we haven’t stayed there 😂. For that price I better not see a bug for 5 miles! 😂
Gregg B. The way to make these bungalows “affordable” (ha!) is through Disney Vacation Club. We’ve done a split stay with 4 days in a studio at the Polynesian and 3 days in the bungalows when we needed to use up our points. We’re staying for 5 nights at Christmas in the bungalows because, again, we need to use up our points since our trip earlier this year got canceled. Frankly, I don’t know how anyone can actually pay cash for these - they’re ridiculously expensive. I’ve read that the Hollywood people stay there when they visit. DVC helps us regular folks have some fun. Hope this helps.
Very smart Orb-weaver spider for setting its web right at that light like that.
Your family is adorable! I’m so happy for you all and the adventures you’re getting to have!From one Disney fam to another Jackson growing up with a magic band on just makes me smile ✨°o°😊. Our girls are both almost adults now and Disney is some of our happiest memories ❤️
What a magical extra “character” meet and greet. It would make my trip to have the Tracker Family waving to me from their bungalow as I passed on the Ferry!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I wish I had the cash to do a staycation as often as them! :P
Lauren Poland I thought they meant to say if freebies but must be .this one the furniture looks not as nice
I'm glad they are able to do them otherwise I'd have nothing of quallity to watch. I love Disney but due to travel restrictions I can't cross the border to visit right now so this is the next best thing.
@@Floridafanatic28 Me either my job won't let me go to any states that aren't low risk and I've been putting off cancelling my November trip that I booked over a year ago.
None of these stays they’ve done recently are comped. They’ve paid out of pocket for all.
Jen & Tim mentioned in previous video that they had planned to travel this year, but because of COVID-19 they had to change their plans.
Y’all are living the quarantine dream. (If there is such a thing)
So true!
Jackson is the cutest baby! Love his little shoes.
Video reminds me, I think I need more relaxing Polynesian music in my life. Reminder of good times vacationing in Hawaii and such.
My husband, brother and sister in law are staying in the Bungalows next month!!! I’m SOOOO excited! It has always been a “Disney Bucket List” of mine! 🌴🌺☀️
Those coconut meatballs are my favorite thing at Capt. Cook's! Yummy!
Rebecca McCreight Me too! Love them!
Aww Your baby is beautiful! I've been following your channel for awhile now. Such uplifting content. Thank you!
i forgot his name was jackson and not buddy for a sec there. lol.
Hey guys! It was great meeting you today even for a short time. Our babys really hit it off haha. Thanks for stopping to say hello! :)
Amazing! Love the outside area overlooking the water with Cinderella’s castle in view and the fact you could watch the fireworks with the music pumping in (when they’re on)
Kona is a must do for us every trip for both breakfast and dinner. The macadamia pineapple pancakes are simply amazing!
Thanks for the warning about the spiders. I am terrified of them. I could never stay there.
This just makes me so exited for my trip coming up in a few months....I wish time could go by faster😂 I also want to visit that hotel some day it looks really nice🙂
That tank behind the washer/dryer is a sewage ejector pump; we have one in our basement to run used water up to our septic tank. Cool video!
Hi Tim Tracker, the pump noise you hear in the closet is a sewage Ejector pump, it collects and pumps out when full so you are correct, there is a pump in that closet! Love your review!
Such a fun trip! Glad you’re getting these mini breaks
I’m glad you mentioned something about all the bugs and spiders... that’s a deal breaker for me. 😳 *shivers*
Kona cafe is bar none my favorite Disney resort restaurant! Their bread pudding will make you say bad words it’s so good.
Loved the detailed room tour! And so glad Kona Cafe was able to do to-go orders so conveniently for bringing back to the room. Great video👍❤️❤️❤️
Jackson is adorable! Thank you for all you do to help! Great vlog as usual!
Jackson can say,"his whole life was Disney..."
...and mean it. Lol!
#bestlifeever
I think your feedback about spiders is the most helpful thing you’ve ever told us. Now I don’t have to be tempted to spend so much money to stay there! 😂 the only thing I needed to hear to change my mind. 😂
The bungalows look so nice, I love how they’re overwater! but they are crazy expensive 😱
I figured they would be. I would want to be in the pool.
Yes! I looked it up and for a Saturday night in October 2020 it's $727 before taxes. The most we've ever paid for a room was $400, which we can afford but have only done it for special times (like an anniversary and a stay ON the beach).
Wow! We're currently staying in the villas right across from you! Sorry we're leaving tomorrow, would have loved to have met you!
I actually liked the lighting when you were filming in the evening. It was relaxing and it reminded me fire light, like the glow of tiki torches. 🔥🙂
I am absolutely obsessed with the Thai meatballs from Ct. Cook’s. I get them every time we visit WDW property. Sorry they messed up your stomach, Jen! They also used to have these amazing pork nachos but I don’t see them on their current menu. So delicious.
Awesome bungalow. I’m lucky too. I’ve traveled all over the world. I haven’t been on a vacation in awhile. I’m not complaining. Your trips are a fun alternative though. Jackson’s chubby cheeks are adorable. he’s so big!
I met the artist who made the tiny Mickey and Minnie painting at an art show featuring him in St. Petersburg, fl. He also made the Mickey and Minnie paintings with the old style wood sided cars on a beach, very similar to the tiny one. They’re featured in Hawaii.
LOVE YOUR SHOWS, BUT I ALWATS GET HUNGRY WATCHING. YOUR LITTLE GUY HAS A KILLER SMILE. BLESSINGS
I loved this Resort Tour Trackers happy you stayed at A perfect Resort the Polyessian.
Hello Tim just wanted to update you on the sewer system in the bungalows, it’s called a Air Vac System it uses vacuum to vacuum out the sewer from the bungalow. You are correct sewage goes into a tank and once it reaches a certain amount of pressure it tells the system to open a valve that has continuous vacuum to suck out all the sewage.
It was so lovely to see the bungalows , I love the Polynesian but I think I’ll stay in the studio next year , as I planned a few days there this year. Loving the stay vacations. Stay safe and enjoy the slide Jenn I did ! X x thank you
