The quick service dining outlet at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa will shut down for a couple of weeks later this summer.  

Sales for the Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa started in May 2013, but the history of this Disney Vacation Club resort goes back a bit further in time. Now that it appears the Grand Floridian is sold out, let’s take a look back at some of the key dates in its brief history.

If you were procrastinating adding some points at the Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort...well, it may already be too late.  

Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows is the third Disney Vacation Club resort offering buyers the option of purchasing Guaranteed Week deeds or the more traditional flexible points deeds. The Guaranteed Week option--often referred to as the Fixed Week option--was first introduced at Aulani, Disney Vacation Club Villas and subsequently the Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.

How popular will the Guaranteed Week option be at the Polynesian? Its too early to say. But we can look at sales of Guaranteed Week deeds for the Grand Floridian to get an idea of what may happen with sales at the Polynesian.

A single general manager will no longer have to oversee operations at two Walt Disney World resorts.
