Hawaii is the best place to Uber because of the aloha spirit! I went on a "babymoon" with my 6yo to the Big Island and our driver was an older lady who was the absolute sweetest! She gave us her number in case we wanted to use her for the ride back to the airport, which we did, and not only did she remember our names (5 days later), she gave my daughter a little gift bag filled with goodies! Soooo sweet!
After living there for 3 years all I'm gonna say is its expensive but so freaking beautiful. I miss hawaii
We just booked 10 days at Aulani and I am so freaking excited! I’ve been binging on UA-cam videos. Thanks for the tips!
We went to Aulani in October last year 2018. Family of 6. Loved it! Best family vacation ever, but we saved by having lua at the Polynesian Cultural Center just a couple of dollars more per person but you can check in hours earlier to shop shops. We rented a mini van from the airport. Much cheaper! Self park to save from tipping valet. And ate off resort most of time. One character breakfast. And a few other restaurants on Aulani. Saw Pearl Harbor and the Sea Life Park. It can be pricey , you just have to pick and choose.
I agree! You do have to pick and choose for sure!
Polynesian cultural center luau was amazing! Such a vibe 😍
Thanks Melea, these vacation saving tips are video gold! Have a good 2019!
ive been there around three times growing up and it’s an amazing experience, yes i was unaware of the price because we went when i was 7,9, and 11, it is one of the reasons why i love the island and disney. there is a lot of things to do outside of the hotel like going to the farmers market and my dad took me scuba diving
You are so helpful! I am considering Vacationing at this Resort. I really appreciate all of your helpful tips.
Since I am a DVC member, this is perfect for my family as the room is free and so is the parking. Free upgrades also in the spa!!! I am stoked to get there
same i am a dvc member and im going next year
@@widhrbwh7543 take me; please????
planning my vacation for next year and this is such a big help!!
Hands down one of the best review video on UA-cam. You were concise and got right to the point!!! I hate videos that take forever to get to the tip.
Oooooooooo.... I’m having a ball vlogging Orlando Disney places, but this is AMAZING! I can’t wait to go to Hawaii 🥰
Thank you so much for posting this video! I recently got engaged to my boyfriend of six years on Saturday, September 21, 2019! We’re eloping in Oahu, Hawaii in March 2020 & we are staying at Aulani for part one of our Disney honeymoon (2nd part being The Disneyland Resort). So we are definitely taking notes from this video!
Always love your Disneyland tips - especially hotels. How about a Disney Cruise?
Thank you so much for this video, lots of great info!!
Great review thanks! Definitely help me better plan my upcoming trip.
I’m going there tomorrow and this really helped! Thank you!
good info! thanks! We're thinking about coming here next April.
Thank you for the advice already been to the resort like five Times but this was really helpful!!
Thank you for your video! It was very informative and it really gave me a heads up as far what I need to do to make most of my stay there!
Your video is so informative! You were spot on with everything you’ve explained. Love it!
Thanks! Tried to be as transparent as possible so people can make their own decisions about going. :)
You have confirmed why we didn’t stay there when we visited in October. We found a VRBO next door in the Ko’Olina and it was seriously amazing. The pools were gorgeous and hardly very busy. We bought groceries at the nearby Target and Costco. We walked next door to Aulani to check it out one day and couldn’t believe how packed the pools were. If you want a relaxing vacation, I would suggest the beach villas next door.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! :)
Awesome job! You did a fantastic overview of great tidbits!
I didn’t even know this place existed until last week! 😯
Great video; thanks for taking the time to do this!
Definitely do one for the Disney cruise line
Def Subscribed! Omg your vlog is so so cool, to th point and useful
This was a very useful video! Thanks!
Thank you so much for the info!!! We can’t wait to go the end of this year!
This was such a helpful video. Thank you sooo much!!!
Great detailed review!!
This was all great info! Thank you
...thank you for the video and the information!!
Oh my gosh. Thank you so much for this video! While it’s obviously beautiful, I would’ve been soooo disappointed with all the additional charges!
This is really helpful, thanks!
Ill be moving to hawaii soon next year im so excited
I absolutely love your vacation tips video's!!!!
Yay, so glad!!
Would love to see a video on the different cruise options!
Awesome tips, thank you
I need to start saving for this trip now.
Such a thorough, informative and fun video!! Thanks!!
Glad it helped!
Great tips, especially if it's your first time to visit Aulani. Thanks!
Great video reallly helpful
You have the best review. I wasn’t going to go until I saw your review
I want to do a Disney cruise! Hawaii is on my list of places to go!
A Disney cruise! My dream vacation.
We just went on a Halloween Disney cruise last year and it was amazing and so much cheaper since food and drinks are included and Disney Characters everywhere
I loved this! Definitely message of the video is to save up a lot before lol! I'd love to see video on Cancún México anywhere in the Riviera Maya. Thanks! Love your videos!
Scotland with my kids is on my bucket for sure!
Excellent Video and Content! As DVC Members, I think it will be added to our bucket list to do! Would love to see your family do the Waterparks of the Pocono's...Kalahari Resort, Great Wolf Resort and Aquatopia/Camelbeach Waterpark are three within a 15 drive of each...more are within an hour drive. Some great restaurants and shopping experiences too within a short drive...Given your travel knowledge, would love to hear your perspective on what is quickly becoming a major Waterpark area!
I'm so happy you put this because the at place is so expensive and this video definitely showed us it wasn't worth it. Thank you 🙏
Thank you your video is the best compared to the rest you were really detailed
Awseome my daughter who is 8 years old and I were just doing research for our trip, she was enthralled with your video. You do amazing thank you so much so for the information & I took notes. I can't believe that you did this, also we appreciate your time. Now we just don't know how far out to book this crazy stuff going on.
Very useful video - thank you xx
I like this one! 😍😎👍
Great video, I subscribed 😀
We just went in November loved it but yes a bit pricey. We thought it was worth it! We stayed 1/2 our time there and half on north shore we got to experience both sides which are totally different! You were spot on with your tips our kids were up at 4am too we would walk down to the other hotel lagoons as well.
You did such an amazing job at explaining all the benefits of Disney Aulani!!! So happy you went to Monkey Pod, it one of my favorite places in Ko'Olina along with Just Tacos!!! I live in Kapolei, Hawaii right by that Costco you mentioned in your video!:) We are at the Four Season or Aulani every weekend!:)
Honestly, if we go back, we would probably try the Four Seasons. It was priced similarly to Aulani and not as crowded. Have you guys stayed there before? Thoughts?
@@TheMeleaShow stay at an Airbnb!
You do an excellent job - speak clear and concise! You don't ramble. Give good info and do great editing!!
I agree the food is pricey your pronunciation of all the hawaiian words are really good. Nice vid.
This is a great and informative video! I am going to Oahu soon and and staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. If you can and have the time, could you possibly do a know before you go video? Thank you 😃
I already live in Hawai'i with my ohana, but we're going on a staycation going to Aulani!
Love you so much 😘
Excellent informative tour !!! Thank-you for this very professional guide !!! Aulani is very beautiful and well organized , but yes, very pricey - especially the $37 per day parking fee which probably discourages people from renting a car where you can drive to the more affordable grocery stores like ABC. Overall, i still think Hawaii is top-notch , but most families can't afford Aulani. Hey, how about a tour of Aruba ?
I just booked the luau and drinks are included and unlimited now!
We have stayed at the Marriot next to the Aulani resort and we always hit the costco before we go so we can utilize the kitchen!!
Yes!! Such a smart idea! It can really save families a ton!
I would love you to do a video like this for a disney cruise.
Great idea! We've had a great disney cruise and a bad disney cruise. So that could be a good video!
I love that store
Thanks a lot 👌
I’ve been there before it so nice
I just got back from Hawaii and I’m watching this video again because I miss Hawaii
I love aulani I go there each year, and I’ve been there 10 times
Wow how much money do you have
I would love to see a Disney cruise
Thanks! We plan on getting married here in the next 2 years and I'm trying to find cheap ways. Lol
Watching this from the netherlands, definitely on our list! Thanks for the great video, how old are your kids?
I didn’t even think of instacart for our Hawaii trip! Omg. Would’ve been such a time saver lol. We didn’t rent a car since we went kid free, and those store runs added up!
Thanks for the tips. We are DVC members and have gone to Aulani several times and learned some new tips! I also like the DVC member breakfast every Monday morning. We get free Aulani baseball caps when we go.
That is crazy! We specifically asked if there was anything special for DVC members and they said no. So that's crazy you got free caps!
So is DVC worth it I've been looking into it cause I want to actually do Disney vacations more then one time
This video actually changed my mind..
I went there omg the cafe there it was sooo good and I went to the same store
This has been so helpful! the video quality as well as the great explanations will be so valuable when we go for our two week trip this summer. My ex husband purchased a DVC after years of Disney vacations -we co-parent and in doing so have vacationed four years together with our daughter for two weeks. It’s been such a blessing to our relationship with each other and our child especially the way Disney handles so much that takes away stress during a vacation. But I must admit I’ve been in the dark for the DVC as he does all the planning and so forth. But Hawai’i is new for us so I’ve been needing more info and this was just lovely. We look forward to the Luau and the spa. The tips on the close properties like the Four Seasons was excellent as I’m headingnow to book dinner reservations. Looking forward to future travel vids for DVC properties -we r heading to Europe next so maybe you guys will be doing that one before we go. Best regards!
I’d love a video on just vacationing in Hawaii in general (not just Aulani). Although this was great information!
Great idea! We can do that soon!
So Beautiful
Wow. Excellent video. Thorough, candid, entertaining. Thanks.
I've been there it is amazing went during pro bowl friend had timeshare do she let us buy her week time so it was alot cheaper for us but Costco target are there and the prices te same as the mainland and the strip mall across the street was so nice lots shops restaurants so worth it
We are also DVC members and go once or twice a year. One thing I didn't see mentioned is that the pool area also has 2 water slides. The tube riding slide you can go single or double rider. We enjoy the coconut shrimp from the snack bar, $12 I think so not bad. I've only been to a couple of other luxury resorts on the Big Island and the food offerings there are of comparable price. The small mall across the street also has a really good pizza restaurant.
We are DVC members and stayed at Aulani Dec 2018. we loved it and would definitely go back. we didn't enjoy ama ama that much, and found the buffet on site the same as any other Disney buffet. the craziest thing was they do not offer the DVC discount on property, but the Hard Rock cafe in waikikiki does????crazy.
we also ate at the monkey pod and had groceries for the room, but the ABC island market has EXCELLENT precooked meal options for about $5-7/person-loco moco and other noodle bowls. plus regular entrees and sandwiches and sundries.
while Disney seems expensive, Hawaii is expensive in general. $8.00 for a galllon of milk as an example from target - oh an no plastic shopping bags on Oahu. you need to bring your own shopping bag. if looking to dine on property on the cheap, visit the lounge next to the buffet for happy hour. 5 dollar pints and appetizers - plenty of food for snacking at dinner.
Totally agree! Hawaii is just expensive in general. Last year, we did Tahiti (another video we did) and it cost almost the same as our trip to Aulani! It's crazy!
The Marriott Mena House in Egypt! We have two small kids but would luv to visit as the hotel is literally across from the pyramids 🤗
Please post more!!
This was a very helpful video thanks for doing it! They don’t have dining plans at the resort like at Disney?
When we were there they didn't have anything like that.
Have you done any of the Disney Adventures? I'd love to hear about those experiences.
I went to aluni in January and it was nothing like she said. No lay for us or necklace, we never had to save a beach chair their were plenty. The food was expensive but we ate 2 meals and a snack. Went to the dinner and our drinks were free. Used rubber no problems!
I live down the street from the Aulani and if you do rent a car go with Turo. Although parking is expensive, there are so many good places to eat in Waianae and you will save a ton of money on food.
Great video thank you for all the information
Hi there, I was wondering if the offer for the DVC tour is still available?
I like your vacation reviews. I love hearing all your money saving tips. But sometimes I wish that you’d pick places that are a little cheaper. Some of these places just seem so pricey, even with all the ways to save. Maybe Tahiti Village in Las Vegas or saving money by using a home away rental or something? I know these aren’t bucket list places but maybe more affordable? Just a suggestion. You do a great job and I love seeing your videos. Bucket list locations, maybe: Disney World or Alaska.
Excellent Video! Very helpful and very well done.
Enjoyed your video! We did the Aulani last year and are currently trying to head out this week. We traveled over 100 days last year and also are from UTAH! would love to talk with you on DVC and how it's working out for you
How fun! I thought I traveled a lot, haha!! DVC didn't make sense until someone finally explained the math correctly. If you do a lot of Disney---it will save you money!
@@TheMeleaShow I've done disney quite a bit but can't figure out how many points would be the right fit. Did you guys use the aulani as your home resort?
Awesome real review... can not ask for more. Thank you. I see Disney Cruise is winning for the next trip... I too would love to see savings and tips on that... for short term or long term trips etc. How to use points etc from gift cards etc. Also I would love you to do a in UTAH holiday and promote all the wonderful places that has too offer and hotels and food places. I have learnt a lot from #THISISHOWWEBINGHAM by showing me around the wonderful state. Thank you again
I remember that
I'd like you to do a video on XCaret in Mexico
