The one thing I didn't realize was that there is very little to do on property in the evenings. We are very spoiled by WDW resorts. We take many vacations to WDW without going into the parks, and there is always so much to do well into the evenings. Yes, there is live music every night at the Olelo room and also some nights at Off the Hook. But of the eight nights we were there, only two outdoor movies scheduled, and they were both cancelled. Two nights for the Starlit Hui, one night cancelled. Fire pit storytelling was great. They had three different "uncles".....but only 3-4 different stories.
So if you are there for more then a couple nights, it's the same stories over and over.
I understand that at WDW there is more than one resort that we can go to for evening entertainment. But even there, we often stay at AKL and we don't have to leave the resort for entertainment if we don't want to. There is a movie Every night. The African cast members with different stories and experiences. We would like to see more planned activities that go into the evenings at Aulani.
