It's time once again to take a look at activities that can be done outside the theme parks at Walt Disney World! Previously I've talked about boating, miniature golf, and bicycling - all relatively inexpensive activities that you and your family could enjoy on non-theme park days. Today we'll look at an activity that is not as inexpensive, but could be done on either a theme-park or non-theme park day: Disney's Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show. The show is performed nightly at Disney's Polynesian Resort.
As a family, we have enjoyed this show twice in the past 18 years: once on our honeymoon, and then again in 2004 while on vacation prior to the arrival of my daughter. (I'd say it was time to see it again!) The first time we saw it - while on our honeymoon - was part of a non-theme park day. We had spent the day leisurely enjoying boating with a romantic picnic lunch, shopping and other fun stuff. The second time we saw it, with our boys, was part of a theme-park day. We had spent the day in the nearby Magic Kingdom, taking the boat from the park over to the Polynesian when it was time - then returning back to the Magic Kingdom via Monorail. after the show concluded.
Like the two other dinner show opportunities at Walt Disney World, the Spirit of Aloha includes an all-you-care-to-eat feast, featuring tastes and delights from Polynesia, and beer and wine are included for those over 21. It features enchanting music, costumes, and authentic dances. Our favorites were the two different fire-dancers. They were really cool!
The luau has been running at Walt Disney World nearly since the resort first opened. Originally performed on the shores of the Polynesian Resort, a few months later being moved into a specially designed area within the protected shelter of what has become to be known as Luau Cove. It is a very popular show, usually selling out pretty quickly, so securing reservations early is key. Reservations are available as many as 180 days in advance. So prior planning is important.
