I'm really not surprised as I have found after five trips to Hawaii that native Hawaiians have a deep respect for their culture and the depiction of Hawaiians........hence no Lilo there. I just returned from Aulani and feel it is now the best resort on the islands. Very friendly, helpful, and full of the Aloha spirit. My only complaint was the quality and the availability of food choices. When they open the whole resort I just don't see how they will be able to accommodate everyone. I can foresee the pools and beach being extremely crowded. I loved my one bedroom ocean view, the spa, Rainbow Reef, Starlit Hui, and the character breakfast the best. I wish there were more food options in the area. We got a lot of food from the deli in the ABC affiliated store in the Ko Olina shopping mall and pre made wraps and cheese plates in the Aulani store in the lobby.
