Wailulu Bar & Grill
Dine with views of Cinderella’s Castle without being in chaos of a park? Yes, please!
Prepare your taste buds for an unforgettable journey to the flavors of Polynesia at the Wailulu Bar & Grill! The name “Wailulu” perfectly captures the essence of this unique dining experience, combining the Hawaiian words for water ("wai") and calm ("lulu"). It’s no wonder, as you’ll be treated to stunning views of the serene Seven Seas Lagoon while you savor every bite.
Step into a world where indoor and outdoor seating seamlessly blend with breathtaking sights, including a spectacular bar area offering mesmerizing views of Cinderella’s Castle at Magic Kingdom Park. This casual walk-up pool bar is your go-to spot for lunch, dinner, or a quick breakfast, with a menu bursting with flavors inspired by the vibrant Polynesian Islands.
As you dine, you’ll be surrounded by dazzling Polynesian-inspired artwork, including floating tropical fish sculptures made from recycled materials and reclaimed fishing nets, all swimming towards a grand textile masterpiece that mirrors the beauty of a coral reef. At the heart of the dining room, an abstract Polynesian Stick Chart—a nod to ancient navigators—serves as a stunning centerpiece, with hues of blue, teal, and green faux stained glass casting a magical glow over the space.
And for a touch of Disney magic, keep an eye out for our beloved wayfinding princess, Moana, beautifully depicted in a painting that graces the Wailulu Bar & Grill.
Terrace Gardens
New FAVORITE Fireworks viewing spot?? Maybe!!??
Get ready to rock your stay like a true VIP with access to the stunning terrace gardens at the Island Tower! As a guest or Disney Vacation Club member, you’ll unlock exclusive entry to four breathtaking tropical gardens that are anything but ordinary.
Imagine this: vibrant artwork, lush foliage, and uniquely themed seating areas that transform these gardens into your own private hideaways. These serene sanctuaries are the perfect spot for you and your crew to kick back, relax, and soak in the views like rock stars.
And speaking of views, you’re in for a treat! These picturesque oases offer sweeping vistas of Disney’s Oak Trail and Magnolia Golf Courses or the shimmering Seven Seas Lagoon. It’s the ultimate front-row seat for taking in the Magic Kingdom fireworks—no park ticket needed!
