My family and I were almost ready to book Aulani this summer, probably the last week of July, but then I read reviews that said absolutely do not go there in the summer, way too crowded...So. I'm wondering, is it really that awful in terms of crowds? A little background - I've been too Disneyland many times, sometimes during very busy times like Christmastime and Halloweentime. We also just went to WDW last month and we always have a blast. I have never been one of those people who has let crowds ruin it for me at the parks. With that said, I get that the resort will be crowded, but the are the same people who are online complaining about the crowds at the parks the same ones who are complaining about the crowds at Aulani? Because if so, I don't think it will ruin it for us.
However...I don't want to fight for space in the pool, or not be able to enjoy a sit down meal. The reason we are looking at this summer is because we've decided we probably shouldn't pull out our son next year as it'll be his first year in middle school and he's already anxious about school and falling behind. Thanksgiving in another option but flights are so expensive and often delayed, etc.
So...give it to me straight...if Aulani is a no go in the summer...where else could we go? We live in California. We want to take a nice week long vacation this summer. Any other fun ideas? No cruises really port out of Cali this summer...
