For a while now, we’ve been watching construction at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, where a new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) tower is being built. The Island Tower is set to open in December with new dining, entertainment, and hotel rooms, and we can’t wait!
While there are lots of changes happening inside Disney World’s theme parks with Test Track’s retheming, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opening, and so much more, there’s even MORE happening outside the park gates.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Fort Wilderness has been getting new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) cabins, and in December 2024, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort will open their new DVC tower, built on the ground that housed Spirit of Aloha dinner show at the resort for decades. We asked our readers on Facebook if they’re planning on staying in the new tower, Island Tower, and we got a pretty strong response!

The resort is getting a whole new building with new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) villas. We’ve been following the construction of the project ever since it began, and Disney even recently revealed the new building will be called Island Tower and will officially open in December 2024 (which isn’t as far away as it might seem). Up to ow, only select groups of Disney World visitors have been able to book rooms in Island Tower, but today, EVERYONE can book one of these brand new rooms.
It’s no secret that Disney World is changing constantly, but usually, that means they’re hard at work making improvements.

We’ve seen quite a few changes come to EPCOT lately, and over in Magic Kingdom, the new Tiana’s Bayou Adventure ride should be opening soon! Disney has been working on some hotel refurbishments as well, and now another one will be joining that list.
The Disneyland Hotel has been around since 1955, and it’s getting some BIG changes soon.

In fact, a lot of changes are coming to Disneyland Resort, including a huge Downtown Disney makeover, too. Construction has officially begun for a certain Disneyland Hotel project, and you can learn more here!

It’s an exciting event that usually gives us some big news or sneak peeks at upcoming Disney projects. We’ve already learned about an updated stage show returning to Disney World, when Avengers Campus will open at Disneyland Paris, and got the opening timeline for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT! And now, we have a sneak peek of the new Disney Vacation Club tower being added to the Disneyland Hotel!
Last year, we told you Disneyland was planning on building a 12-story tower next to the Disneyland Hotel for Disney Vacation Club members.

The new DVC Tower will feature 350-time share villas and is a separate project from the luxury hotel that was set for Downtown Disney, but ultimately canceled in 2018.
