Opening day At Aulani

Are they selling those unlimited drink cups? if so, are they assigning a CM to refill drink at the stations?

Thanks for the great report! How is the beach and lagoon in terms of crowding?

Pretty much empty. More people utilizing the pool deck for sure.

No refillable drinks at this time. They do have the refillable popcorn buckets though.

Are Mickey waffles available anywhere? I foolishly mentioned them to my 4yo and then remembered that they weren't served at Ulu Cafe on our last stay. Mom fail!

Sadly no. And also missing are the Mickey spam musabi and any specialty cupcakes. The CM we spoke with last night was unsure about when the kitchen would bring them back.

Thanks for checking, @sparks&whimsy I will have to make a Target run to buy Mickey Eggos and hope that's good enough lol.

Island Country Market sells spam masubi. That’s where I usually buy mine.

Are they letting locals in or just guests?

Anyone is allowed on property. However at this time only resort guests can dine on site.

Thank you for taking time from your vacation to share and answer so many question. Aloha!

Pools are great. Lagoons probably the same, almost never cold here. We didnt even make it to the sand, all splash pad with the little one with a small amount of the grotto.

They will be moving to that but as of today it was not available.

ahhh this explains why when I searched for “Aulani” on shopDisney.com a bunch of magic bands came up. Not Aulani specific ones, just plain colours. But I thought it was odd and had never happened before. Now we know why.

This is Aulani specifically, but I just saw that the Dole Plantation is opening on Nov 12!! I was bummed that my kids might not be able to see it, but it's opening the day we get there!

Did Off The Hook change its name to Off Da Hook?
