We stayed at the Marriott and loved it. So much more relaxing than Aulani. Not wall to wall people! Lots of open spaces, chairs and loungers everywhere! We had a cash reservation and stayed on the 12th floor of Moana, one bedroom. Would def. consider staying there again either cash or renting a...
BBQ beef sandwich was from Costco! BBQ beef, and coleslaw on a huge Hawaiian bun!
Hawaiian BBQ restaurant that was horrible is in the KoOlina plaza in between the pizza place and the Taco place.
Steak dinner was from the Island Market in Ko Olina Plaza (ABC market spin off). They also have a...
We just returned from Oahu. We stayed at the Marriott four nights but walked down to Aulani several times and also shopped and ate at the plaza. We ate pretty cheaply.
We stopped at Costco and bought water bottles, pre mixed Mai Tais and Pineapple Margaritas about $13.99/half gallon. ( they...
We are in room 2522 woods view. It is on the far end of the hallway and so quiet! We haven't heard anyone close to us. You can hear the parade a bit in the afternoon.
Checked in this morning and headed to the parks about noon while we waited for our room. We are staying in the Villas. One bedroom is amazing! Park was crazy busy! 60 minute wait for Small World! We were able to do Big Thunder Railroad, Indiana Jones, Matterhorn and Small world by 3 then had...

Last year I sent my in laws a nice basket from Harry & David's with a bottle of wine. Http://www.harryanddavid.com/
They loved it. The pears are so good. This is a local company to us.
One year I sent Wolfermans breakfast basket. It was well received...
My DD (13) loves to try whatever the sample is. She has actually eaten a lot of things there that I didn't think she would like. (Quinoa, several soups, yellow curry sauce, vodka pasta sauce, pumpkin ravioli).
There flowers are very reasonable here, 3.99-7.99 a bunch. Great quick hostess or...
Got really lucky and rented a one bedroom villa (Grand Californian) Nov.21-26. It's a tradition for us to go out if town over Thanksgiving but getting harder with one daughter in college and one in competitive cheer!
We have stayed at the residence several times. It was great but maybe a little dated. They have probably upgraded it since then, for 5 the two bedroom would be great. Think of it as almost apartment sized!
Next week we will be at the Hampton Inn and Suite in Garden Grove just up from the Toy...
We witnessed a proposal on the storybook ride they had a boat to themselves and it was stopped for the fireworks. I thought it was very romantic and sweet with only our boat behind them aware of what was going on.
We have Nationwide too. DD's boyfriend wrecked her car and they forgave the accident according to our policy and our rates did not go up. BTW the damage was over $6000. They also paid for a rental car, reduced our deductible by $100 and were excellent about paying the claim. Read your policy...
We were there last year and really enjoyed our turkey dinner at the Plaza Inn. We walked right in about 4pm no reservations or line. We sat in the front corner by the Christmas tree overlooking the hub. It was surprisingly relaxing and very tasty.
I just returned from a convention at the DLR. I made a note on my reservation for the Adventure Tower. Upon arrival I was given the Frontier Tower which is considerably farther away from the convention center and viewed the parking lot. I kindly and politely asked if any rooms were available in...
Congratulations on your decision. We have stayed at PPH concierge several times and loved it! The CL is the best one IMHO staff is always accommodating and not pretentious like the Grand. It does close earlier, though that it's only drawback. Whenever my DD11 smells certain sunscreens she says...
Thank you, the convention rate is very good $179/ night. I guess we will have to "rough it". Lol! $200 is a lot of turkey legs and Starbucks for my two girls!
We have stayed concierge at PPH ad the Grand several times. We loved it! I will be headed to DLH with my two girls for a convention at the end of this month. I am getting convention rate for DLH. Does anyone know if I can upgrade to concierge and the price?
