village, tourist attraction
The village was named in honour of a Pole whose first name was Stanisław (Stanislaus). Having arrived with an American merchant vessel that was plying the copra trade at a time, when the local inhabitants were having difficulties irrigating their palm tree plantations, Stanisław helped them solve the problem. Accordingly, the village was renamed to its present-day name in his honour. Also, a church was built there and dedicated under the auspices of Saint Stanislaus, and a bay in the lagoon was named Saint Stanislaus Bay. However, the last name of the Polish benefactor was not remembered.
Poland's population is 235 people (Census 2005), by far the smallest of the four inhabited villages on the island.
