My 5 Favorite Things About Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa

travelmagicstg2023-10-04T18:00:09-04:00December 28, 2016|Disney Travel|0 Comments

Location – This seems obvious, right? Aulani is in Hawaii, so how could it be anything less than fantastic. To me, one of the best things about Aulani, is that it is Ko’Olina. This is on the less touristy, less busy side of Oahu. You’re 27 miles away from Waikiki, 26 miles from North Shore, and 17 miles from Pearl Harbor. This means that you feel very secluded and private, but you’re not far from lot of other activities. Food – The food available at Aulani is wonderful. Ama Ama is the perfect beachfront setting for a special dinner. Try [...]

Sailing with Character

When you cruise with Disney Cruise Lines, you don’t just cruise, you cruise with characters. Imagine rubbing elbows with Captain Hook and Mr. Smee, dancing with Princesses, chatting with Jack Sparrow, even telling Santa Claus your Christmas Wishes – all this and more can happen on a Disney Cruise. For the most part, character greetings on the cruise happen just like character greetings in the parks. The character greeting schedules are posted in your Personal Navigator as well as through the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App. You can also see daily schedules at the electronic boards next to the elevators [...]
