    We stayed in Deluxe Ocean View Studio number 656 from June 29, 2019 through July 8. The room shows ware. We had to pull the stoppers from the drains in the shower and bathroom sink in order to get the drains to work. The room could have been cleaner. Carpets at Aulani are in need of cleaning...

    Fourth of July ??

    We were at Aulani this year for the 4th. The staff told us it was the busiest day they have ever had at Aulani.

    RCL or Disney please help?!

    I think it depends on the RCC ship. We have sailed on all four of the Disney ships. We all know Disney is generally more expensive. We just got off RCC's Jewel of the Seas for an Alaska cruise. I believe the Jewel also does Caribbean cruises. We chose RCC because we were able to have a balcony...

    Not to MISS at Disneyland

    Go to Main Street Station to ride the train. Find a conductor and ask if you can ride the tender. If they let you then for all intents and purposes you will be in the engine. Alternatively, ask if you can ride in the VIP car Lilly Belle.

    Aulani chair policy favors chair savers

    We just returned from 8 nights at Aulani. As a committed supporter of the idea chairs should not be saved if you are not actually at the pool, I was interested to see how Aulani's new policy worked. Unfortunately, I fear Aulani wants us all to join the ranks of chair savers. :( The staff was...
