Aulani questions

[WeLoveAriel0505]

We will be going (7) in mid November. Several questions -

Is an executive lanai necessary for three adults and four children aged 4-10? Or how early would I need to get down there to reserve chairs for that many?

When do I REALLY need to make reservations for dining that time of year?

Any other must have tips?!?!

Thanks!

I think that would be considered off season, so the EL may not be as necessary as it would during summer, holidays, etc. I think if you got down by 10, you should still be able to secure some chairs by the pools.
If you want to do a sunset Ama Ama dinner, book that before you go (probably best to schedule at least 2 months ahead of time. The Makahiki breakfast should be reserved ahead of time as well.
