Creator's Key Takeaways

I think the quality looks bad. So, l see it's not even picking up my face, right?

The luau is a fantastic experience and highly recommend it.

I think that you should definitely go, especially if you've never done it before.

It's gross. It's just gross. It really is gross.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book the luau well in advance to get premier seating.
Share dishes at Eggs 'n Things due to large portions.
Get a cheap float for lounging at the beach.
Show up early for character meet and greets to avoid long lines.

🌺 Disney Aulani Resort Day Vlog! 🌺 We spent a full day soaking up the magic at Disney’s Aulani Resort, from early resort time to a spectacular Hawaiian luau with premiere seating! This day had everything: tropical vibes, Disney characters, mixology fun, and unforgettable island entertainment. We kicked off the day with the 7am Hawaiian chant, followed by a walk over to the Ko Olina Shopping Center for breakfast at one of our island favorites, Eggs 'n Things and a little morning shopping. Then it was time for beach time and pool hopping, including our first visit to the serene, adults-only Wailana Pool. Along the way, we ran into some of the adorable Duffy & Friends characters, including Shellie May and the legendary ‘Olu Mel! 🐢 Later in the afternoon, we joined our friends in the Disney Vacation Club exclusive Mixology Class at The ʻŌlelo Room (our second time — we love this experience!). And then it was time for the main event... We attended KA WA‘A: Aulani’s Signature Luau with premiere seating, giving us early access to the pre-show activities and front-row views of an incredible performance. We sampled all the buffet items (yes, even the poi!), and enjoyed live storytelling, musicians, hula, and epic fire dancing. We ended the night with live music and one last cocktail back at The ʻŌlelo Room, which was the perfect wrap to a magical day in paradise. 🌴✨ 🎥 In This Episode: ✅ Early morning Hawaiian chant at Aulani ✅ Walk to Ko Olina Center + breakfast at Eggs 'n Things ✅ Aulani beach time & pool hopping ✅ First time at the adults-only Wailana Pool ✅ Surprise character encounters: ShellieMay & ‘Olu Mel 🐢 ✅ DVC-exclusive Mixology Class at the ‘Ōlelo Room 🍹 ✅ KA WA‘A Luau with premiere seating (front-row views + early access!) ✅ Enjoyed the buffet (yes, we even tried the poi!) ✅ Incredible storytelling, music, hula, and fire dancing 🔥 ✅ Live music & cocktails to end the night at the ʻŌlelo Room 👍 Don’t forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and tap the 🔔 to follow along with more of our Must SEE Adventures, where Disney magic meets real-world fun!
