Great time for the family
lovetotravel23Wa (wa) on Apr 18, 2024
The resort is beautiful. Definitely has that Disney up keep…. But for me, didn’t have that Disney magic. We came in around 11 and had to wait for our room to be done but you are allowed to use the park before check in. Rooms were standard and spacious for our family of 4. Characters walk around the pool area at certain times… we never really looked for them and ran into goofy, Minnie and Daisy Duck. Food on the resort is comparable to prices in Waikiki. However nothing was great, but also not bad.. Kids loved the lazy river and slide! Most pool levels is 3’-4-3” I think. Overall great experience.. but for the price tag and the lack luster Disney experience.. I can’t give the full 5 stars.
Expensive, overcrowded, water park with broken showers.

We just got back from a trip and stayed at Aulani on the last leg. We were ready to get out of there. We did not have a good experience. It was just an expensive and overcrowded water park. The pool area was decent but just way too crowded. The rooms were small for the price, they charge extra for any activity or amenity, and the shower in our room was broken and didn’t get fixed before we left. We didn’t feel any Disney magic there, only a lot of chaos and “come see the vacation club villas”. Their luau had good food and music but was simplified with a Disney style story so I wish we had gotten to go the the cultural center instead. We had just left Koloa Landing on Kauai and it was paradise in comparison. Still a great pool area (multiple areas, some busy and some quiet), spacious and relaxed and a two bedroom, two and a half bath villa for only a little more than two tiny rooms at Aulani. They had a ton of extras included like soccer, a putting green, free activities with a prize of a snow cone for the kids, and they made S’mores with the kids. They even gave every kid a little backpack with a compass, binoculars, and activity book at check in. We will go back to Hawaii but we will definitely skip Aulani next time.
