IPVB?
ITPVB?
PVB-I?
Poly 2 like we have been?
Agreed, high point charts plus it's a tower meaning all the air conditioning and etc. is centralized, easier for mousekeeping than how the current longhouses are set up moving from building to building.Probably help keep the dues lower since it's a tower and will likely have a higher point chart
I’m going to go with PVBT until an official Disboards vote happens and the abbreviation is dubbed.This will be one interesting with what we end up calling it..

Since it’s, in the end, a different booking category at the same resort, it’s still PVB in my book.This will be one interesting with what we end up calling it..

lol, i was thinking of making a kungaloosh to celebrate.It may be a hot take here, but I personally could not care less what the name is for the new tower. I'm just so darn happy to finally be able to get 1- and 2-bedrooms at my beloved Polynesian resort.
I also love other Disney resorts, especially my 2 other home resorts (GF and CC), Animal Kingdom, and Aulani. Every DVC resort has at least something that I really like about it. But the Poly was our first and most special resort since we started going to WDW over 30 years ago, and I'm thrilled that my Poly points will include this beautiful new tower. Maybe I'll change my mind when more info comes out, but right now I'm like Paul Krieger: ready to pop some champagne!
PVBTPHI vote for name based on room location.
- PVB = bungalow
- PVL = longhouse
- PVT = tower
If it opens as a hotel in December but doesn’t open as a timeshare until mid-Jan, it would allow them to max hotel revenue at peak season and then they don’t have to give anybody 2024 points, right?just took a look through the DBPR and they do NOT have the license for the new weeks yet ... that's the reason for the cash stays. They'll just run it as a hotel until PR2341 gets amended. Can't book points without a timeshare license.
Idk if we’ll ever get people to separate the bungalows and longhouse but I do think PVT does have a chance as a designationI vote for name based on room location.

Point are based on use year, not calendar year, so yes, even if you couldn't book until 2025, everyone would get 2024 points (no January use year, if I'm not mistaken).If it opens as a hotel in December but doesn’t open as a timeshare until mid-Jan, it would allow them to max hotel revenue at peak season and then they don’t have to give anybody 2024 points, right?
Not just look but is! I did an informal experiment a few weeks ago. TTC side exit of Pago Pago to Capt. Cooks and then from there to...I got as far as Aotearoa...and of course depending on how easy they make the connection from there to the tower...was about the same. From Moorea even closer from tower to GCH.That’s actually not true. It’ll be a shorter walk to the original VGF building, but not the GF main building.
Tower to Captain Cook’s, Trader Sam’s, or Ohana actually looks like it will be closer than Moorea and Pago Pago are.
