Aulani - pay for food with cash??

[maggiew]

We are going to Ko Olina in June but are staying at the JW next door to Aulani, I know, but we had Marriott points to use!!

Anyway, I would like to go over to Aulani to do the character breakfast. Can you pay cash for the meal or is it room card only??? Do they allow outside visitors like this??

I'm also thinking about doing the spa day pass. Can we do this as day visitors to the resort??

Thanks!

Aulani is not a private resort so visitors can dine there. And if it's like most hotel spas you should be able to reserve services there as well.

We are staying in Aulani in June. I had to call to make character breakfast reservations because I believe they are now limiting the number of non-overnight-guests that can make reservations at the character breakfasts. I don't think there are any other dining or spa restrictions for day visitors. We stayed at Aulani in November, but visited there one day while we were staying at Waikiki. We couldn't use the pool area of course, but we ate at the pool bar/cafe and walked around the site. I would definitely do this if I were staying next door. It would be worth a call to see if you can make your character breakfast dining reservations at this time.

Thanks for the information.

I tried to email Aulani through their website, but every time I hit submit, it didn't seem to submit?

I will try to call and make character breakfast arrangements. If we can't get in, no big deal. My kids are 20 and 17 and are only doing it for me.

I went to the character breakfast at Aulani on my birthday. Just like any other resort restaurant, it's open to the public. They even validate parking.
