Geography matters. Aulani is on the residential west coast where there's room to spread out, and it commands a large and lovely beach with extensive gardens. Waikiki hotels tend to form a concrete wall along the length of Waikiki, which is a long but narrow, tourist-infested beach whose only saving grace is the view of Diamond Head. On the other hand, the dining and shopping in Waikiki are much better (and even more expensive).
