    American Idol filming at Aulani in early 2024?

    Everyone’s vacation is different. We enjoy being near the grotto pool every day all week. The huge stage is normally right in front of this area so it would be quite intrusive. I have no issues with scheduled filming, I just have issues with the lack of notice for those of us planning trips...

    American Idol filming at Aulani in early 2024?

    This late notice stuff is garbage. We are just over 2 months out and are now getting the notice. Our party of 4 has no desire to be there at this time. Our only recourse is to be annoyed the entire time or cancel our trip.

    Villas at DL reservation not showing up on Dashboard

    Of course this is the day I choose to get up at 5 AM PST to try and book VDL at the 7 month window. Fortunately the reservation system is back online and I was successful.

    Problems checking in online and via the app

    I had the same issue. Tried the app multiple times and computer as well with no luck. I ended up just checking in upon arrival and the wait was about 15 minutes around noon on a Saturday. Our room was ready as well.

    'AMA 'AMA to reopen Fall 2022

    We are here now and they are doing more work on the space. There was a training being held this week. Also, a cast member in Ulu Cafe said the opening was scheduled for mid October. Keep in mind this is from a cast member and not confirmed.

    Best strategy to watch Fantasmic and fireworks on the same night

    We went last week and watched the fireworks and 2nd Fantasmic. Just after MSEP went by we made our way to Main St right right about where Jolly Holiday is located. After fireworks we moved with the crowd through Frontier Land and there was plenty of standing room options and we grabbed a spot...

    TV Production at Aulani

    Dear guest we will also only give you two months notice so it would be too costly or inconvenient for you to cancel your vacation. We know you planned this trip almost a year prior, but we don’t really care.

    Blue Bayou - who else is stalking the app for a ressi time?

    Stalking as well for a trip in a couple weeks. One blog indicated reservations would open up June 8, but that was incorrect.

    Monte Cristo?

    Everyone raves about the Monte Cristo, but reading the description I just don’t understand the appeal. Maybe it is the secret ingredient? 😂

    American Idol at Aulani?

    I would like to thank the OP for this thread as we were never notified about this for our upcoming trip. We ended up moving our trip to September as we would not have been happy with the disruption.

    American Idol at Aulani?

    Well this was very disappointing to read. We have a stay booked that week and have not received any notifications. Based on prior year photos it appears much of the gorgeous view is blocked by a huge stage. It sure would have been nice to receive a few months notice so we could have just...

    Any guess what the cost of Mears will be to get from airport to resort?

    Prior to ME it was $27-$30 round trip per person. This many years later I would say $40-$50.

    Poll: Help me decide

    I know moving rooms mid vacation is not ideal but you could do a split stay dividing up the room views.

    Webpage Down Again?

    Got up to be on at 6 AM my time and the site was down. Glad I decided to go back to bed instead of refresh for the last 2 plus hours. 😀

    Help me decide on a room!

    2 bedroom for sure. We go every year and stay in a standard view because we are never in the room during the day. Much better to have more space than a view you might use a few minutes each day.

    Ground level rooms facing the pool

    Yes you can come and go through the sliding door, but you can not lock it from the outside. Another benefit of being on the ground floor is if you do leave through the main romm door it is a quick walk to the pool.

    Question about Cancelling a Reservation

    If you cancel the points will just go back to their use year and follow normal use and banking rules. No other penalties will exist other than the time to use the points. I am going to assume the 135 points from 2019 were banked since that is the only way you could use them for a trip in 2021...
