Orlando has a lot to recommend it, but even the imagineers of Walt Disney World can’t transform the inland Floridian town into a tropical paradise. At the new Aulani Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, Oahu, though, Disney hospitality will shine Hawaiian-style.
We know: Where do you sign up? The Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, began taking reservations yesterday for stays starting in late August 2011, so you can plan to be among the first to experience this first-of-its-kind retreat.
Want to see Ko Olina’s famous secluded beaches and stunning sea this year? Trade Mickey Mouse for the Marriott and check into the JW Marriott Ihilani Resort & Spa. Ko Olina and Oahu’s Waianae Coast already offer plenty of attractions: Pearl Harbor, Makaha Beach, and the Dole Plantation are all located less than 30 minutes away. So Disney may be bringing its signature magic, but all the hallmarks of a wonderful vacation are there in spades right now.
