Aulani in February '14

[Tinkgrl33]

Hi everyone! I am a long time lurker on the boards and my husband and decided to plan a trip to Hawaii this upcoming February.

To make a long story short, after looking at pictures and hearing about Aulani and also wanting to become a DVC member for a long time I finally convinced my husband to buy a small resale contract at Saratoga Springs. We are now in the ROFR process (started 9/23/13) and my idea was to use our first points in February at Aulani!

I guess I didn't see how long the process can take before we started the purchase process (please don't flame me too bad!) and I am a bit concerned about room availability this last minute to booking since now it seems we may not even be able to book a room until December.

What are the chances of getting a studio or 1-bedroom for February 15-19?

This may seem like a silly question but through looking at other threads I'm getting paranoid that the entire resort will be sold out already since people have had so many months to already book there!

Thanks so much!

Just checked. There is no availability in any room size/view combo at all. Every night in your dates is booked solid. You could always wait list. Hope it works out for you.. Good luck.

Wow! I wasn't expecting that at all! Thank you so much for taking the time to look my dates for me though. I will kelp my hopes up but at least I know I have to look into a back up now as opposed to scrambling at the last minute. Thanks again!

2014?

I think Alunai requires you to book right when you can book the non home resort.

You can try a wait list, or do it later in 2014 or 2015. The points are the same in September as in February.

Oops! Yes, I meant 2014!

We already did book our plane tickets for this upcoming February and I guess I jumped the gun a little on that. I will just have to try the wait list and if it doesn't work out for us to stay there on this trip I will just have to make it a goal to make it back someday to stay at Aulani.
