At Aulani NOW!! Observations

[Chickinvic]

I’d also love to know if one can use a refillable mug for coffee and tea. And the drink stations. I am particularly fond of the infused water stations. I ned constant water to manage the heat. I’m Canadian, anything over 20 c seems hot to me.

Lol, I'm from Victoria, BC (so not too far from you). It doesn't start to seem hot to me until at least about 30 Celcius (around 86 Fahrenheit). I haven't been to Hawaii in years now, but it always seemed pretty lovely in temperature to me.

When you're near the ocean you have lovely breezes and when you go inland you rise in altitude and that seems to cool things off a little also. I packed a bunch of tech tanks thinking I was going to get sweaty and in the end every day was pleasant. I didn't need them at all.

Did anyone actually have reservations for on-property dining? We don't go until after Christmas and I know they're doing 30-day reservation periods. However, I've never seen even ONE date/time. Website always shows:

That time is unavailable.
Please call Guest Services at (808) 674-6200 so that we may assist you.

I suspect they've turned off having any reservations available online since they're having to restrict it to resort guests only. Talking to a real person allows for confirmation of requirements and validation of staying at Aulani. Both times I called there for early November I had my choice of times.

I booked MonkeyPod and Roy’s via the Opentable app. Four Season’s i had to call.
