    4th of July Week in Aulani Trip Report (completed 8/14)

    Can you share how you submitted your room request and what you specifically asked for? We have a 2 bedroom (dedicated) island/garden view reserved for June 23 and would like to request a similar room location as that looks wonderful. Glad you had such a great trip and thank you for taking the...

    Le Cellier poor cut of steak

    Sorry to hear your your experience, we haven't been in a couple of years but based on this and other feedback will probably not revisit in the near future.

    Switching to Hawaii time?

    We fly from the east coast and generally try to book an early morning flight that arrives in Hawaii by early to mid afternoon. We then push ourselves to go do some light touring/sightseeing and try to stay up late. That approach usually allows us to adjust pretty quickly although we are still up...

    Parking in lot after official check out time?

    On our last stay, we had parking access for the full day (we were moving to another resort and stayed at Aulani until around 4 in the afternoon). We checked out of our room, loaded the car and the family went to the pool. I exited the garage once and kept a room key which allowed me access upon...

    Royal Up - How long before you got an answer?

    On our last cruise (last January), our unsuccessful bid didnt come in until we were already on the boat and at dinner that evening. On past cruises we usually received notification 1-3 days before departure whether our bid was accepted.

    Not So Scary Halloween Party

    Yes, this has been normal procedures for years. I don't think it is un-Disney like to ask you to leave after you have enjoyed your meal as the park is essentially closed to guests who have not purchased the separate party ticket. There should be no expectation that you would be allowed to stay...

    First stay at OKW

    Thanks for the report. Our very first DVC stay was at OKW. We rarely stay there anymore (not sure why) but it was one of our favorite trips.

    Where Would You Eat?

    As mentioned previously, Beaches and Cream is a reasonable choice. We have also taken the SkyLiner over to Riviera and eaten at the quick service there. Nothing fancy but it was relaxing and a nice way to check out the resort.

    Checking out today here is room 1150

    Beautiful view - looks like a great location. We have a 2 bdrm dedicated Island/Garden view reserved for June 23 but would spend the extra points on ocean view if we could get that or similar location. If I may ask, how did you submit your request?

    Did Aulani Blow You Away?

    Never stayed in a GV before but it looks wonderful. We have only stayed in 1 bdrms (with a 2 bdrm reserved for June 23) but love the resort.

    DVC ressie with no tickets

    I am unable to purchase tickets in excess of 7 days through UnderCover tourist for 2020 dates. It allows me to make the selection but when I go to make the actual purchase it takes me back to the ticket calendar where I can only select 2021 dates. When I change my order to 7 days or less, 2020...

    Cruise reservation cancelled - need advice

    Final Update - We will be sailing on the Celebrity Solstice. Ultimately Celebrity refused to cancel our booking without incurring a substantial penalty ($1,000). I did escalate this to their resolutions department but their take was that the TA who made the original mistake needed to fix the...
