Let the tropical vibes roll because Wailulu Bar & Grill is almost ready to open its doors.


This brand-new, casual walk-up pool bar and grill will be calling the new Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows home starting December 17.  


As you take in breathtaking views along the water’s edge of Seven Seas Lagoon, you’ll be surrounded by Polynesian-inspired artwork that was crafted exclusively for this location. Some pieces have even been created with recycled materials and reclaimed fishing nets. For those dining as the sun goes down, Wailulu Bar & Grill will feature firework views from Magic Kingdom Park!  


Whether enjoying specialty coffee and on-the-go morning pastries for breakfast, or venturing over for lunch or dinner, your taste buds will be going on a journey. The new Wailulu Bar & Grill menu celebrates the flavors of Polynesia with influences of the Pacific Islands, from Easter Island and New Zealand to Fiji and Guam.  


Some of the cultural highlights include the Sweet Potato Hummus with Breadfruit Tostones, Spiced Ham Musubi, and Chocolate Cake with the essence of Kona coffee. But that’s not all.


The beverage menu is masterfully crafted, combining modern flavors of the Polynesian Islands with classic ingredients like hibiscus flowers, sake, yuzu, pandan, oolong tea, coffee, and passionfruit.


Some stand-out sips include cocktails, the Pandan Gin Gin Mule and Passionfruit and Pineapple Daiquiri, and non-alcoholic specialty beverages, the Hibiscus Iced Tea and Yuzu Oolong Tea Lemonade.  


The name even draws inspiration from these cultures, too! Wailulu comes from the Hawaiian words “wai,” which means water, and “lulu,” which means calm.
