Pineapple Lanai

Absolutely loved trying dole whip for the first time!

It was such a lovely location to try it and we ended up going with the pineapple dole whip! This location has a lime flavored one for a limited time and a vanilla version.

You can get flavors swirled and it also comes in a glass with pineapple juice too! (They call that the float)

Really quick service! Takes less than 20 seconds to get your order and pay!!

Excellent experience with great taste and texture!!

We got 1 swirl dole whip and it was sooo tasty 😋 they split it into 2 cups and I felt like we even got more!

Two Words: Dole Whip! If you love dole whip, then this is the place to go if you are staying at the Polynesian resort. During our visit they were offering lime or pineapple dole whip. Both are very good, but in my opinion pineapple is the best.

Tried for the first time. Omg. I can’t. So good. Now I understand the hype. Swirl is the best. Also tried the Easter flavor! Tasted like cotton candy with lucky charms marshmallows!!! Kids went to town on our first one! Haha Had to go back later to get them their own 🤣🙃

Lime, Pineapple, Lemon Dole Whips - One of the few places outside of a park to get dole whip, Pineapple Lanai delivers the hits. Throughout our trip we were able to get lemon, lime and pineapple here plus a couple of special floats. Here are my personal Dole Whip Rankings:

Dole whip rankings
Pineapple - great flavor and creamy smooth texture
Lemon - Pineapple Lanai - tart and refreshing
Orange - Sunshine Treat - excellent both as a creamsicle and on it’s own. Get the lava burst thing. I lava float.
Raspberry - Aloha Isle - great flavor and creamy
Lime - Pineapple Lanai - great flavor but sherbet texture. Little icy. UPDATE - last day was creamier and delicious. So, could be hit or miss.
Lime - Storybook Treats - great flavor and creamy taste. Could be soft serve and not dole whip.
Pineapple with Coconut - Simba’s sunset - Tamu Tamu - best coconut flavor mostly because of the syrup. This was light and refreshing, but ours was very melty.
Cream Cheese soft serve - Storybook treats - This was really weird. It intrigues you more than anything else but it isn’t very good. Better when mixed with the coke but again, not great.
Strawberry - Refreshment Port - too much like ice cream, did not taste like dole whip.
Coconut MK - tastes like vanilla with a hint of coconut at the end.

We wanted to get a little treat to celebrate our first day on our Disney Vacation, so we stopped by here. Kekai and Hector were awesome. Service was super quick and friendly. We got the Pineapple Dole Whip in a cup, a classic flavor. It tastes great, and it’s vegan. As someone who is sensitive to dairy, this is a great alternative to ice cream. They also had vanilla and lime flavors. You can do a swirl if you like. It’s really nice! I would love to get more sometime.

My Dole Whip Swirl was served quickly and it was very delicious. The Cast Members behind the counter gave very professional service, and were patient with me forgetting my payment PIN. The portion size tonight was on the large side, but it was no problem for me. I love Pineapple Lanai, and I have no doubts about returning again during my stay.

Great little place to get a frozen treat. Used to be only Dole Whip now they have additional flavors.

Cool place to grab dole whip outside of the theme parks. Located at the Polynesian resort

C’mon dole whip with a shot of rum 🍹! Or just a nice bowl 🥣 of dole whip is good anytime

We waited in line about 20 minutes prior to the Magic Kingdom fireworks starting. There was a decent line, but it moved quickly and we probably waited around 10-ish minutes. They have a couple different dole whip options, but we just went with the original dole whip. They fill up the cup pretty high which is nice. You just have to walk very quickly from the stand, which is just outside the lobby by the pool, around to the beach to see the fireworks. It is a great place to get you dole whip fix on a nice night while watching the fireworks across the lagoon.

On our next visit, we had extra time before our dinner reservation at kona cafe so we got some dole whip to tide us over. We ordered and received our dole whip very quickly. We took this inside while we checked out all of the shops as well. They have a few different varieties but it is mostly pineapple. It is delicious and refreshing!

You want Disney Dole Whip? Well the Pineapple Lanai is the the go-to destination if you're visiting Disney's Polynesian Village Resort hotel. It's located outdoors and has a small seating area. When it's super hot in the summer we usually take our Dole Whip into the lobby AC to stop the melt ;) This is a window service location that can get a long line, but it tend to move relatively quickly.

This was our first time visiting the Polynesian resort at Disney and we were recommended to try the coke whip! The staff there noticed that it was our first visit, and offered us to try all three of the flavours they were serving! One was vanilla/pineapple, the other was just pineapple and finally, my favorite lime! They definitely made us feel special and treated us with kindness!

I love Dole Whips but can it be better? Yes, order it with the Rum Floater, coconut rum!

I used to be a purist when it came to a Dole Whip, but the vanilla swirl version, I have to admit, was better! I also opted for the souvenir bowl, and I use it for ice cream at home. I love that I can get my favorite treat without having to pay the $120 park admission! I took my mom and my sister (before covid), for their very first Dole Whips, and they were hooked, too. You do not have to be a hotel guest to come here - I have stopped here only for the treat while in town. Do yourself a favor and enjoy this peaceful (non-park) setting and delicious treat!

Great option for dole whip outside of the parks. We enjoyed a visit on a summer Friday evening and there was a steady line which the cast members kept moving efficiently with friendly attitudes. They had four flavors: pineapple, vanilla, lemon, and lime. Each was available in a cup or float and the lime was also available as a cone. I enjoyed lemon/lime swirl and it was delicious. Strong fruit flavor but very tart. My husband had his as a float and the pineapple juice added quite a bit of sweetness to cut the tart. This place is a must visit for us on each trip to WDW.

Don't leave Florida without trying a true Dole Whip, made fresh at the Pineapple Lanai at the Disney Polynesian Resort.
You do not need park tickets to access this quick serve spot. You do not even need to be a guest of the Polynesian to get yourself a Dole Whip. Just let the staff at the security gate know at which of the other Disney resorts you are a guest and that you are there just for the Dole Whip. (I was a current guest at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Security verified that and let us in.)
If you are a Foodie, this quick frozen treat is for you!

Nicest cast members we have ever met, worth coming to Disney just for the dole.

So good! The people who work here are kind and willing to let you taste test to choose what flavor you want. They have more than just pineapple, which is great because my brother is allergic to pineapple and it lets people like him enjoy the delight of dole whip. It's fun to go because the atmosphere is nice, too.

Got Dole Whip here after a long day at Magic Kingdom. It was delicious and refreshing. I got the dole whip that was mixed with vanilla soft serve and highly recommend!!!!
