Aulani June 2025 Trip Report

The Home Resorts

I have to have these. Tell me how and where I get them.

When you have time can you share your room number and your thoughts on that room vs the other GV you stayed in. I’m thinking view wise I’d prefer Waianae tower and location wise Ewa.

Looks like a great trip. So beautiful! Thank you!

Loved your trip report! I took lots of notes for our September visit. I'll be there with my Mickey-on-a-bicycle-and-gondola-in-a-fedora 2023/24 Tommy Bahama garb, too. Love it! (I'm drinking coffee in a mug from that line right now.)

I'm assuming you already have something booked next already.

If not get to work!!

Thanks again for taking us along with you!

I have Thursday and Friday off to make it a bit easier to slide back into mainland life and to help out with things like getting groceries and laundry after being gone for a week.

We have Disneyland in August, October, and January. We have WDW in March.

Current discussions are to go back to Aulani just after Christmas in 2026.

It was room 1089.

View: They both have great GV views. I’d
Give the nod to Ewa because of the 4 seasons.

Location: it really all depends on how you use the resort and how often you are using your car.

The stores in each of the resorts.

We were sitting in the Beach Club lobby during our recent March trip and I was about to to accept a counter offer on a BC contract and go buy an ornament and then my whole family looked at me like I was crazy and set me straight that we are now a Boardwalk family….

Ha! I got that shirt at a a Tommy Bahama outlet store for 60% off retail price and enjoy wearing it on Disney trips.

Enjoy planning for your September trip! Remember to set alerts on your phones for any dining/seating reservations.

I have never seen one. But now I know I need to leave room in my suitcase every trip.

I'm going to have to be on the look out for these. Didn't see them at VGC a few weeks ago but maybe I just missed them

Ahhh okay. They looked like big houses. Now I want them even more. Are they out year round?

In my experience in the last 12-18m, yes.
