How to Get a Wailulu Bar & Grill Reservation
- Book the day your window opens. Disney World dining reservations open 60 days ahead. Guests staying at a Disney resort hotel can book 60 days before check-in for their whole stay (up to 10 days).
- Keep checking as your date gets close. Disney charges a no-show fee when a reservation is cancelled less than a day ahead, so plenty of tables open up in the final few days.
- Be flexible on time and party size. Early lunch and late dinner slots open more often, and smaller parties fit into more tables.

About Wailulu Bar & Grill
Wailulu Bar & Grill takes its name from the Hawaiian words wai (“water”) and lulu (“calm”) — a fitting tribute to the restaurant’s perch overlooking the Seven Seas Lagoon. It is the signature table-service restaurant at the newly reimagined Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows.
The Setting
The dining room is adorned with Polynesian-inspired artwork, much of it crafted from recycled materials and reclaimed fishing nets, giving the space an artisan warmth that complements the tropical views outside. Both indoor and outdoor seating are available, with some tables offering sightlines toward Magic Kingdom and the evening fireworks — though specific fireworks views are not guaranteed.
Quick-Service Breakfast
In addition to table-service lunch and dinner, Wailulu offers a convenient grab-and-go breakfast from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM — a quick way to start a park day with island-inspired morning bites before heading to Magic Kingdom via the nearby monorail.
Getting There
Parking is available at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort for guests with a confirmed dining reservation. Guests joining the walk-up waitlist should park at the Transportation and Ticket Center and take the monorail or walk to Island Tower. Check-in takes place at the restaurant podium in the Island Tower lobby.
