Awesome episode just finished watching!

 

[SorcererHeidi]

Yes - great job, as usual. Sure makes me want to go even more! Maybe I'll hit that Mega Million Friday!!

 

[KingLlama]

Do they give you special leis when you arrive at Aulani?

They better. No lei, no Llama.

Yes.

Women get flowers.

Men get nuts.

Excellent Show - The Love you two have for Aulani is so infectious.

When I arrived I got brown nuts which seemed better quality, and some seem to have the black ones which seemed cheaper quality.

I honestly can't wait to go back - watching these shows makes me crave it again. I'm telling you nothing feels better than laying by the beach with a burger, and then deciding to jump down a water slide all enjoying the atmospheric Hawaiian experience.

Once again my only small complaint was late night entertainment as they shut the pools down at 8 on us, however I loved loved my time there.

I actually saw Tracy when I was there - but I don't bother people on vacation she looked very busy with her family.

 

[DisneyKevin]

<insert joke about the color and quality of nuts here>

 

[TheMaxRebo]

Yes.

Women get flowers.

Men get nuts.

(let the fun begin)

oh, that's good to know ... my wife has my nuts locked up

 

[TheMaxRebo]

great video and I loved how they spoke over the video they shot - i think that was a nice format

I feel like this is a place I need to go to in order to fully appreciate it as while the video made it look very nice, it doesn't seem like something I would want to fly for 10 hours or whatever it is with my 3 small children to get to ... just a nice view and lying on the beach and a pool really doesn't do it for me

BUT I found it very interesting that Tracey, John, and Kevin said they all are typically not beach/pool people but for some reason they love it there so there must be something about it that you have to be at to really get it

We were just there for 12 days in May and I never set foot on the beach.

Can not wait to return.

We have started judging all purchases by "do you know how many Aulani points we could buy with this money?".

 

[SorcererHeidi]

You said it beautifully in your 2nd paragraph, Phil. EXACTLY what I was thinking to myself after watching the video! Get outta my head, it HURTS with you in there!!

 

[OKW Lover]

Yes.

Women get flowers.

Men get nuts.

(let the fun begin)

The flowers smell wonderful.

 

[OKW Lover]

I hope everybody gets a chance to watch this series. The first segment is really good for those trying to decide what room type to pick. Strangely absent from the video was the 3BR.

Seriously though, the videos don't do the resort justice. You really have to go there to appreciate it. Val & I have been annually for the past 3 years and are planning on doing it again next year. We would go more if it weren't such a long plane ride to get there. Oh, and if we had more DVC points.

Aulani is a world apart.

 

[CampbellzSoup]

The only way I would become a member of DVC would be at Aulani

 

[GeneralTso]

Fantastic video! I'm so happy it will be a 4-parter. We rented DVC and have a studio villa the first week of January. We have been to Maui and the Big Island, this will be our first visit to Oahu. We are not traveling with any children, so I particularly like the "no kids" perspective of this.
Excited to see the food installment next.

We plan to attend the DVC sales pitch this time. Original plan was to purchase at Poly/WDW, but I have a feeling we will purchase Aulani instead.

Keep up the great work--really enjoying the videos and podcasts.

I listed to the show and I like how positive everyone is about it. At the same time I would like to here from someone who doesn't enjoy it as much as to me it doesn't really sound like a place I'd want to visit.

 

[sweethannah]

The flowers smell wonderful.

But how do the nuts smell?

...

You might have to find a different travel podcast.

I can't imagine anyone not liking Aulani....if they have been there.
