Roof to Polynesian Village Resort Ceremonial House now being worked on

There is a month left until Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort reopens and if you were to look at the exterior of the Grand Ceremonial House one wonders if it will be ready. But with Disney, you never know when the magic will kick in.

The rebuilt monorail station is well underway and work is starting to take place on the high-pitched, open-truss roof that will be covered in a thatch style.

Let’s first take a look at what looks to become the center of the entrance that is now being worked on…

and now look at the artist concept Disney released a few months back.

Now, let’s take a look at the current situation of the front of the resort.

You can see the progress here on the resort’s entrance. The entire new monorail station will be closed and also refurbished during the work. Along the Monorail station, bold new wooden screens will be covered with geometric patterns in bright, tropical colors.

The interior will also be refurbished to make it open and airy and will feature dramatic lighting elements, including chandeliers inspired by glass floats, fishing nets and oversized bamboo elements. The new chandeliers will match the existing grand chandelier in the resort lobby.

Work is also being done on the rooms in the Polynesian Village Resort with details, patterns and textures from Disney’s film “Moana.”

No specific date has been announced on the reopening other than in late July. However, we do know the signature restaurant ‘Ohana reopens on July 9.
