Hi there!
We are finally trying to make our way to Hawaii in June of 17. We will be on a cruise and then intend to head to Aulani after getting off the boat. Can anybody recommend the best way to get to the resort and then from the resort to the airport? We will likely only be at Aulani for 4 days and will have already seen the island, so it is more of an R&R stay.
Thanks in advance!

We used Speedi Shuttle and booked them directly through Aulani. We had a party of 6. I've read others recommend Charley's Taxi as well.

Use Charley's, Star Taxi or Uber.

We have used Speedi Shuttle to and from the airport. They were fine and very reliable. There are greeters in Hawaiian shirts at the airport to meet you. I think there is a link to reservations for them on the Aulani site. The shuttles hold about 8 or 9 people + luggage. For side trips without luggage, the people at Aulani have recommended Charley's to me. They were also good, and would probably be fine coming from the airport, if you wanted to travel without other people in the vehicle. Speedi Shuttle will often have a video of Hawaii running during the trip.

We will be using Charley's. We're a family of 5, so I thought their $55 one-way flat fee wouldn't work for us (it says 4 passengers only on their website), but that, instead, we'd have to get a minivan for $280 roundtrip. So, I called and asked and they said they would do a minivan for us, and that we didn't even have to make a reservation, just call when we landed and they'd meet us at baggage claim.

Uber may work for getting from the ship to Aulani, but it may be more difficult to use Uber to get from Aulani to the airport. I've been checking Uber availability in preparation for our trip and they seem to be few and far between in the Ko'Olina area. YMMV.

I probably would just use a taxi for both, if you're not renting a car. There is an Alamo onsite at Aulani if you wanted to rent a car to drive yourself and drop it off when you arrive. Then you can avoid parking charges, but still have the freedom to stop at the grocery store, etc. on your way in.

I've been curious about Uber too especially in the Ko'Olina area. If the guest booked a one way car rental from HNL to Aulani, I understand there is a drop fee of around $45. Might still be the route to go though!
