‘Ohana Character Breakfast Review at Disney World

‘Ohana Character Breakfast at Walt Disney World is a family style character dining experience located at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. It’s Lilo & Stitch Hawaiian theme is fun for the entire family.

‘Ohana offers all you can eat breakfast options at the Best Friends Breakfast featuring Lilo and Stitch. This is served family style and is such a fun experience for the entire family.

Atmosphere

If you have seen the movie Lilo & Stitch you know ‘Ohana means family and family means never left behind or forgotten.

The ‘Ohana Lilo and Stitch breakfast follows the family theme with a family style breakfast served at your table to share.

From the minute we entered the Polynesian Village Resort we were surrounded by lush landscaping and the Hawaiian themed lobby. We arrived by monorail from the Magic Kingdom.

We scheduled our meal as a brunch and on a rest day. This allowed us to sleep in a little, enjoy a big breakfast/lunch, and return to our hotel pool for the day.

Disney Tip: We always plan a day off when we spend a week at Walt Disney World. I share all the non-park activities to enjoy in this post on 24 Things to Do on a NonPark Day at Disney World.

We also used our Disney dining credits. I am a huge fan of the Disney Dining Plan if you are going to do multiple sit down meal or character meals during your visit.

If you are only doing 1 or 2 character meals you will spend less paying out of pockets instead of purchasing the dining plan. Bottom line the dining plan doesn’t really save you any money.

How to Get to ‘Ohana Character Breakfast

If you are staying at the Polynesian Village Resort you can easily get to ‘Ohana because it is located upstairs of the lobby.

If you are staying off-site and do not have a car you need to look at the best transportation options such as Uber or Lyft.

We were staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort. The best way to get to breakfast was to take the bus to the Magic Kingdom.

From there you will take the monorail or the walking path to the Polynesian Resort. The monorail is an attraction in itself so we were excited to have a chance to ride. It took us about 35 minutes travel time.

Characters

At the ‘Ohana character breakfast characters will walk around the dining area and come to your table. The characters include Lilo, Stitch, Pluto, & Mickey. 

You do not need to walk around to find the characters they come to you! They will sign autographs and pose for pictures. (Specific Character encounters can change.)

The best thing about character dining in my opinion is that you get a meal and meet & greet all in one. You don’t have to worry about waiting in line at the park to meet characters.

It saves you time at the parks and gives your kids a lot of time with their favorite characters.

During the meal they also do a musical parade through the dining room. Everyone grabs a maraca and dances around with Lilo, Stitch, Mickey, & Pluto. The dining room is big so an adult should go with small children for this parade.

Stitch is really silly and fun to meet. He is mischievous and causes trouble…just like the real Stitch. You never know what he is going to do and we had a lot of fun with him.
