My family stayed in a $990-a-night villa at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. Here's what it's like inside.

From the moment I walked into the resort, I felt transported to a tropical destination.

I loved seeing the resort's iconic statue in the lobby and checking out where my family and I would eat dinner later in the evening.

My favorite spot to hang out at the Polynesian is the pool. The resort has two of them, one near the main lobby and one between some of the smaller buildings where the rooms are.

I love the smaller pool because it's typically quieter and has a zero-entry sloped side, which makes it a great spot to sit and catch some sun.

My family was in the Pago Pago building close to the Ticket and Transportation Center, which has convenient ferries and monorails to Magic Kingdom and Epcot.

The studio villa was clean, and the entrance conveniently had a closet with a laundry basket, hangers, a safe, and a luggage rack.

Throughout the whole room, there were plenty of Disney prints and touches.

The first bathroom featured a sink, toilet, and tub shower.

I loved the bird artwork in here — it reminded me of the Enchanted Tiki Room at Magic Kingdom.

The second bathroom had a rainfall shower, which I loved.

The river-rock tile made it feel like I was in a jungle somewhere when I showered.

All the studio villas at Disney World feature a kitchenette with a microwave, mini-fridge, toaster, and coffee machine.

On our departure day, we used these appliances to make a light breakfast instead of buying a meal at the hotel.

I loved that the main living area had three beds: one standard queen-sized bed, one queen-sized Murphy bed, and one pull-down single bed.

The front of the Murphy bed featured fun "Lilo and Stitch" painting. And more Disney-themed artwork appeared when we pulled down the single bed.

The table had two accompanying chairs and a lamp, which was perfect for our short stay.

My room was on the ground floor, so my family and I had access to a large outdoor patio with two chairs and a bistro table.

We had a view of a small garden, but there are also rooms with park or lagoon views.

Our all-you-care-to-enjoy dinner consisted of salad, bread, grilled meats, chicken wings, dumplings, noodles, and 'Ohana's famous bread pudding.

Because of the Polynesian's proximity to Magic Kingdom, my family and I had a great view of the park's nightly fireworks right from the hotel.

My parents and I loved our stay at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. The villa was spacious, and we liked that there were two bathrooms.

I like any chance I get to dine at 'Ohaha, and watching the Magic Kingdom fireworks was an extra treat.

I plan on staying here again, especially when the new DVC Island Tower opens in December. It will have one-bedroom villas with bigger kitchen and dining areas, making it easier to prepare more of our own meals.
