No, no, it’s not done yet! Just wait until it’s finished, it will look TOTALLY different! (Or that’s what we were endlessly lectured on in the Tiana threads for a year)

Yet, looks like a turd aesthetically.

Yes! Another component to add that was forgotten to mention!

I stayed at the Poly in December and May. You really don't see the new building from most of the resort.

Riviera has one of the best quick food option restaurants in all of WDW.

You think you won't see it from the Grand Floridian or the Poly? 😂

Chef idea Mickey`=14 hours ago

I'm just thankful we don't have to see it from Grand Floridian resort and we can experience The Polynesian still without having to see it if we wanted. Has it impacted what was once a peaceful quiet beautiful walking path with just you and the sound of nothing just of a monorail passing by in a while...yes

Course correction: Caribbean feel vibe from Disney!

It is way cheaper to actually go to the Caribbean if that is the escape you are looking for...lol

If your Carribbean room had a view of it, I'd understand, you could easily get another room in another area of the resort if that was the case. There are plenty of room areas that is tucked away if you want that Carribbean escape.

💯To me also! I agree it really brought a new destination ambience place for the Epcot resort area and has helped bring an easier way of transportation to Carribbean Beach to the parks and back and also for Art of Animation/PoP for sure.

The poly and the grand flo never blended together either. I like looking at the Riviera last time I was in CBR.

We stayed at the Riviera their opening year. We had a 3 br villa. I will say the room was immense, and very beautifully done. I will also say that there was no discernable theme whatsoever. It looked like any nice hotel. The "Riviera" theme means absolutely nothing. The restaurant is nice...not a stand out...not memorable. Contemporary interior... The skyliner was nice except for the transfer to get to DHS which was ridiculous...(it was morning and the lines to transfer were nuts)...all in all, it felt very cut off from everything else... Didn't really offer anything remarkable, and we all decided it was a one and done... yes, the room was beautiful, and everything is fine... Just not someplace any of us connected to. Perhaps if they had added some real placemaking and theme to the property...if there were some engaging entertainment...I don't know... It just didn't feel Disney... It didn't feel special.... It felt like staying at any corporate Marriott hotel USA.
