Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa, Ko Olina, Hawaiʻi
Your legend begins at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa. Set along a tranquil lagoon on the island of O‘ahu, the Resort was created with families in mind, by the people who know families best: Disney.
To kick-off adventure, splash out at the sprawling Waikolohe Valley pool area, the destination for aquatic family fun with multiple pools, water slides, a lazy river and the magical Menehune Bridge. Families can experience fun activities like paddleboarding or snorkeling in the Resort’s private cove. Or visit Rainbow Reef, a saltwater lagoon where guests can enjoy up-close encounters with tropical fish.
Even the little ones, or “keiki”, get their own legendary vacation because the Resort offers so much magic for them to enjoy. Embark on a complimentary high-tech scavenger hunt and discover enchanting surprises throughout on the Menehune Adventure Trail. Come say aloha and pose for a photo with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and some of their friends or cool down with a refreshing Mickey shave ice.
As the sun dips into the Pacific, the family fun can continue with a variety of entertainment options. From the excitement of Uncle’s master storytelling as he shares Hawaiian legends and lore to performances by the best musicians from across Hawai‘i, it’s world-class entertainment that the whole family can enjoy.

Shopping
Kālepa’s Store
Inspired by the traditional, family-owned, one-of-a-kind general stores that have served island locals for generations, Kālepa’s Store offers a rich plethora of "upscale necessities" to Aulani's guests.
Kālepa is the Hawaiian word for "merchant" or "peddler"–or more literally, "to strike flag," because in traditional times, salesmen hoisted a small flag to show that they were selling poi or some other item.
The latest incarnation at Aulani features refined reinterpretations of classic general store designs, which still manage to convey the essence of the originals, but with a decidedly contemporary flair. Black and white photographs depicting modern-day general stores and their multi-ethnic proprietors pay homage to a general store tradition that continues to thrive on all of the Hawaiian Islands today. A remarkably unique "Shave Ice" lighting fixture adds a playful, colorful touch.
