Last week Get Away Today said “aloha” to Brett from the
Disneyland® Resort as he dropped by to update our staff on the most recent news from the Happiest Place on Earth as well as the latest word on the new Disney Hawaiian Resort, Aulani, scheduled to open August 29, 2011. Here’s a rundown of all the exciting happenings in the world of Disney:
Aulani - A Disney Resort & Spa
Nestled on the secluded coast of the Ko Olina Resort area of Oahu’s west (leeward) shore,

Aulani is an innovative resort paradise that invites families to step into the story of Hawaii and add their own chapter with unforgettable vacation memories. With high speed waterslides, a lazy river, a breathtaking lagoon and snorkeling cove, a conservation pool that puts rays and sharks literally in your lap, Aulani guarantees a resort experience unlike any other—and that’s just the beginning! Kids will love the kid’s club, and the Menehune Adventure Trail, and activities from surfing lessons to lei making will immerse them in a truly Hawaiian experience. Adults can unwind in the 18,000 foot spa or play a round of golf at the nearby Ted Robinson designed championship golf course. This awe-inspiring new resort will begin inviting families to make memories in late August of 2011, but you will soon be able to book reservations through Get Away Today. Keep checking back for more details on Aulani and information on how to make this Hawaiian fairytale vacation a reality!
