Pool/Lagoon float

[Lesley Wake]

I know Aulani doesn’t allow large pool floats but it seems they do allow pool noodles. Does anyone know if one of these would be allowed?

From pre-COVID memory they wouldn’t be allowed in the pool but you would be fine in the lagoon.

I been Aulani twice and i dont remember seeing people using floatation devices in the lagoon…would like other ppl’s opinion because if allowed, i plan on bringing ours during our next trip in Nov.

They were not allowing personal floatation devices in March. Here is a thread from 2019 about this subject: Ko Olina Beach Restrictions

How about in the lazy River? Can I use my noodle/chair (just like the one above)? I always have trouble getting into tubes!

I think it comes down to how large a float is permissible. ABC shops sells thin air mattress inflatables that were always allowed:-

Whereas massively large inflatables wouldn’t be allowed.

Don't mean to hijack OPs thread, but does anyone know if the baby floats with little sun shade are allowed?

 

[Budzooka]

Yes. Saw some today.

 

[Kmk2]

Saw floats (circular and with printed flowers) from ABC all over the lagoon.

I saw flotation devices in lagoon 1 every time I've been to Aulani after the reopening. Ko Olina used to be really strict about this, but they seem to have eased up. I don't think you could get away with one of those large rainbow unicorn rafts, but small 1-person rings seem to be slipping through the cracks.

Yes, they are. Our daughter was even allowed to cruise down the lazy river in hers.

Awesome, thank you! That's what I'm hoping my daughter can do!

Thanks for the post, I was wondering this also

When we were there for a week starting August 14, 2021. I never saw anyone using the D shaped floats you could purchase at the Island Country Store (AKA ABC). But I did see them sitting on the beach in the Lagoon area. The tides were high (tide warnings were in affect), so most of the swimmers were just enjoying the waves some using the free boogie board Disney offers. One day it did see someone laying on a float like shown in post #11 in the Lagoon. But they kept have problems running into the paddle boats. In the pool a few guests used a noodle. The baby floats were used in the pool.
