Admission includes access to six Polynesian Island Villages open from 12:15 pm to 5:30 pm, where visitors can join hands-on activities, watch cultural demonstrations, and see performances that represent the heritage of each island. The villages are staffed by locals who provide information and lead a canoe tour across the lagoon. Dinner is included at the Gateway Buffet, available from 4:30 pm to 7 pm in the Gateway Restaurant. The buffet features island-inspired dishes, a salad bar, and desserts served alongside live music in a dining hall decorated with a 360° mural.
