    Storybook Dining at Artist Point Watch Thread!

    Well our server said he was there to guide us on our "next 60 minute adventure"! We were taken aback as we were unaware of the time restraints for dinner. LOL We had a good chuckle but yes were in and out in an hour and a half with characters so yeah I think it is possible if you say you are in...

    Visiting other islands?

    Have you been to Hawaii before? Honestly we were there just under 2 weeks and wished we had more time and that was just on Oahu. I thought we are flying all that way we should take the kids to another island but dh said he wanted to park it. I was happy he did. There was so much we did not see...

    confused about where to stay???

    wow your daughter sounds like an amazing mom! Just wanted to say the disney store has adorable mickey hands right now for your little guy! They are mittens made to look like his hands. There are also the big character type ones but they might be hard to travel with and not very useful. I was...

    Am I missing anything big that needs to be budgeted in....

    Why just 10 days? I would skip concierge and add more time. You get a refillable mug for coffee and soda to use in the quick service restaurant. Just speaking from experience, whenever I travel somewhere with a big time difference like to Europe or Hawaii it takes me days to adjust. I am always...

    Reflections: A Disney Lakeside Resort

    So funny I thought the same thing when I seen it on the other site. Mentioned it there but no one said anything. I think it very much looks like it. We stayed at Davy Crockets when it was being built and accidentally drove over there when we got lost. It is definitely not that "Great Outdoors"...

    Does anyone complain about the pool hours?

    We just returned recently and while we had a wonderful time, the pool opening and closing definitely affected out trip. We rented a car and often would want to return around 3 or 4 but knowing we had 2 -3 hours before the slides closed and the lazy river really bummed us out. Not sure what the...

    Oahu itinerary waikiki & aulani

    Wow that is an ambitious itinerary! Logistically with traffic I think is near impossible on some of the days. (day 4 and 5 esp) You are missing how much parking time etc will take at half those destinations. However if you get it done I will be amazed and want the details please!! We were there...

    I want a resort that feeds me like a cruise...

    Yet cruises don't even do this? There are certain hours things are open. Sure room service is available but it is that way at a hotel too. Yes you have to wait. The menu is very limited too depending on the hours. Buffets are only open certain hours. Not always for dinner neither, I have found...

    Mickey Waffles at Aulani

    The Olelo bar had them for the kids menu under a chicken and waffle. $8 ....bit pricey for one chicken and one waffle. It was stale according to my son, granted I think they are left over from morning. Ambiance made up for it though!!

    TRIP REPORT - July 2018 Waikiki and Aulani FIRST Visit! Last for Aulani

    Thanks for your trip report! Good read... I have a couple of questions. First you said Bishop museum was not what you expected and if you were prepared you would have enjoyed it better. I would like to do this and was wondering what you could have know to make it more enjoyable. FWIW we would...

    Which resort would you NOT stay at again...

    Oh no! That is what my husband said. He noticed the Solarium aspect too and I told him I am sure we would be at the BC eating too so could hang out in there. I am struggling between YC and AKL right now for a last minute change. We leave next month. AKL seems so far away and the rooms are small...

    Which resort would you NOT stay at again...

    I must ask how is exactly a completely different resort? They are tied together by a hallway. Just curious as we stay there soon and when visiting always walk between the two. We love DCL so it has a theme we like with the dark woods. We have stayed at BC and loved it too but the lobby seems a...

    Here now - 3/24-3/30 - “low” crowds?

    I was in serious disbelief when I saw that today. 4 hours!!! That is a flight time from the east coast to LAX. I get bored on a plane but at least have movies and food/drink service along with the ability to use the bathroom. I could not imagine having to move every few feet for hours at a time...

    Best Deluxe Resort for Counter Service

    I like the Poly as it is not your typical burgers and chicken. Plus you can order some good stuff at the quiet pool. GF is nice too and only a 10 minute walk away! We have never had good experiences at the Contemporary. :scared:

    How many nights in Waikiki pre Aulani?

    Is 2 nights enough to do things offered in Waikiki area. So after much debate on islands and hotels I am settled on Aulani (I think lol) yet after booking 9 nights I began feeling like we really should shave a couple not just due to cost (huge factor too :scared:) but because I actually want to...

    Is parking at the Poly a problem?

    Yes it was for us almost every time. Waiting in line to ride the small boats at MK at close 2 "business" men tried to cut infront of me and the kids. We were at that just a few more on the boat stage. We all had to wait. (fwiw take the monorail at close) As I watched them leave they headed...

    Space Mountain....underated?

    Are we talking SM in Disneyland California or Disneyland Paris? Then yes underrated. SM at WDW is overrated. Last time I was there I swore it off as it is just not enjoyable. The theming is there but for goodness sake fix the stinking track because "whiplash is fun!".....said no one ever!!
