Aulani Villas & Views -- REVISED 07/22/2017

[TreesyB]

While I was fortunate to get the room, I called about 10 days out and requested our villa to be on a high floor ending in 73 or 79 based on this thread. As a result we got our 1479. There are no guarantees, but you can definitely help your odds by asking in advance.

Great Tip!

We are in 107 this week, 1 BR.
If I can figure out how to add picture or two, I have some.

You need to load your photos onto a site like Photobucket, and then once you do that, there is a link on each of the photobucket's photo pages in your album that you can copy and use to post it here in the DIS.

If you have any other questions just ask

I believe this was Room 209 - Waianae Tower Island Garden View

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cinderpamela asked me to post this. We went in May 2012 and had an "Island/Garden" room on the second floor looking onto the spa. It's been awhile, but looking at the schematics on Page 1, I believe that we must have been in Room 209 (it was a dedicated 2-Bdrm).

Thanks for posting those Tidefan!!!

We were in the dedicated 2 bedroom (with 2-1/2 bath) ocean view room in the Ewa Tower Room 1050 - It had an AMAZING balcony (probably about 35 ft long) but unfortunately we did not get to see any sunsets. While we were there the sun set behind the Marriott to the right of the property (at least during early summer).
However, a little beach walk was all it took to capture the setting sun. Easy to do and a beautiful way to end the day.
The room was fantastic. We did sit on the balcony in the evenings and could easily hear the live music from the ground floor area. Our view included the whole pool area, the beach, and the ocean.

We can do online checkin in two days and I can't decide if I want to make a specific request or now. We have a 2 bedroom (2.5 bath) pool/garden view, I know we won't be higher than floor 5. I've read so many different things on here, I can't decide. Do I care if we have a long balcony? Etc. Might just go with it and see what we get.

 

[Mrmouse4me]

There were 5 of us and we enjoyed sitting out in the evening and talking together with the music playing in the background. The long balcony was nice for us. We also used the balcony chairs to dry suits & towels.
As we were walking around we saw several pool view rooms (ground floor) and those looked great too. It would be fun to walk outside of room and go swimming.

Thanks, Halefamilyof6! Those are some of the best photos I've seen of Aulani's Waikolohe Valley. I've added your villa to the list in Post #1.

By the way, Waltons on the DVCNews Forum shared some photos with me from a couple of her trips to Aulani. Thanks to her, I have added villas #201 and #501, both Grand Villas, and villa #506, a Pool View 1BR, to the list.

No problem! Your thread has been extremely helpful when we planned our trip so I'm glad I could help out, even in a tiny way! The first thing I did when we arrived was take 'view' pictures for your thread!!

Is the Ewa tower the only building with the long balconies? That appeals to me as it will be 4 adults and one child and we would like to all enjoy the balcony together. Hmmmm. Either way, I am sure it will be awesome!

Found this info

The Aulani villas with the angled balconies are located on both sides of the Waianae Building (villas #xx02-xx13) and both sides of the long wing of the Ewa Building (villas #xx70-xx86). The Aulani villas with the non-angled balconies are located on both sides of the Ewa Building-Phase 1 (villas #xx50-xx59) and the short wing of the Ewa Building (villas xx60-xx69).

So yes, Ewa building is the only one with non-angled balconies, so a dedicated 2 BR in those would have a longer, more continual balcony.

Thanks for all the great info found here. We are planning to go next April. Any advice for that time of year?

We arrived about 5 hours ago, it's was a long and exhausting 13 hours of travel but well worth it! Thanks to the great photos and information on this thread I knew exactly the view we wanted . We requested the Ewa building with a room ending in **50.. We did on line check in and when they handed me the packet and I saw it was room 950 in the Ewa building I was totally psyched. The view does not disappoint! Once I get my bearings I'll come back and post some pictures. Thanks again for everyone's pics and great advice!

We were room 472 pool view studio in Ewa and didn't like our view. It was mostly trees and shrubs. Next time we will save points and do island view or spring for ocean view.

Enjoy your graduation celebration!

I know what you mean...Long day traveling from the east, but SO SO WORTH IT!

Enjoy Ewa! We absolutely did as well!

 

[carissa1970]

Checked in yesterday, Room 312, which is already on here. The views have changed due to the shrubbery and trees growing! You cannot see nearly as much of the lazy river, and cannot see the kids' area at all. Totally behind the trees. Still pretty, though!

 

[luv2boys]

Anyone there 4th of July know where to see fireworks?

 

[aprincesswannabe]

We just returned from a magical stay at Aulani. I'll try to post pictures of the view from our room tomorrow.

Sharing a few photos from the balcony of our room.
Beautiful!





We could see the entire water area!
