It needs to be in a high traffic area, removed from the theme parks, and resorts. it needs to have controled access. It needs to be for adults only, and it needs to be in an area say like.....Pleasure island.

The Poly is "Pre-Explorer" times. It's not built in the era that these lands were being explored and as the west is adventuring through these areas. It's built as a tribal village, a untouched paradise, not as a setting for a explorer's camp.

Poly isn't for that type of story, Hokie.... it's a cultural, traditional place. It's not built for a story with characters and events. It's a setting.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer >>>I think you're taking a hotel too seriously. Haha<<< It's in Disney, it has a story. Your story of the Explorers and Adventurers of the AC doesn't fit the Story of the Poly. How's that serious?

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer The Neverland Club doesn't fit there, that's just the thing. LOL. It's just there. Fantasy isn't a part of the Poly. And Poly is based in culture in tradition in the fact that the architecture is tribal, the ornamentation and even "lingo" (mahalo) is all part of the indigenous culture there... European Explorers and Adventurers haven't been to Polynesia in the era showcased in the Poly.

That's like saying MSUSA is terribly themed because Cinderella Castle is at the end of it. It's not part of the THAT story. The AC, as you seem to desire, would be injected into the story of the Poly, which wouldn't work. It's like a certain fish fitting in a land of the realistic future. ;-) >>>I'm with EE. Keep working on that courtroom tenacity<<< Thank you Bobbe.
