Aloha! Bookings are now open for Disney’s new family resort on the shores of O’ahu. Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, Ko Olina, Hawai’i, is scheduled to welcome its first Guests on Aug. 29, 2011.
Aulani is a destination where families can experience the stunning natural beauty, rich cultural heritage and friendship of Hawai’i – in a setting only Disney could create. The resort, built adjacent to a crystal-blue lagoon and a white-sand beach, features 359 hotel rooms. Your Clients can choose from a variety of room options with commanding views of the ocean, mountains or magnificent grounds.
With activities available for families, kids, tweens, teens and adults, there is something for everyone to enjoy. From pool parties with Disney characters to excursions into the rainforest and rejuvenating spa treatments, days and nights will be filled with the magic of Disney in the beautiful tranquil setting of Hawai’i.
Aulani also features a signature kids’ club – Aunty’s Beach House – where kids can explore Hawaiian culture through fun games, arts and crafts.
The resort is located 17 miles from Honolulu International Airport and features convenient access to a Ted Robinson-designed, 18-hole championship golf course.
Why Family Travel Requires More Planning — and More Expertise
Family travel is the most rewarding kind of trip to plan well and the most stressful kind to plan poorly. Children have different thresholds for long travel days, disrupted sleep schedules, and adult-paced itineraries. At Atlas Travel Center, we’ve been booking family vacations since 1987, and we’ve learned that the key to a great family trip isn’t finding a place with a kids’ club — it’s designing an itinerary that genuinely works for every member of the group, regardless of age.
Disney destinations, in particular, require a level of advance planning that surprises most first-timers. Dining reservations open 60 days in advance and popular restaurants fill within minutes. Lightning Lane passes and special event tickets require strategy. Knowing which parks to prioritize on which days, how to minimize wait times, and where to build in rest — these are the details our advisors have helped thousands of families navigate over the years.
Beyond the Theme Parks
Some of the best family travel memories happen away from the most crowded destinations. A family cruise offers unmatched value — one price covers accommodation, food, entertainment, and transportation between destinations, with something for every age onboard. Caribbean all-inclusive resorts with water parks, Rocky Mountain ranch vacations, national park road trips, and European river cruises tailored for multi-generational groups are all experiences our advisors design regularly.
