TRENDY TRAVELER | A Family Escape to Aulani In Hawaii, a Disney Resort with So Much to Love

A WALT DISNEY RESORT

Walt Disney Imagineers worked hand in hand with local artisans and cultural experts to create Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa. Inspired by the natural wonders and rich traditions of Hawai‘i, Aulani Resort is the ultimate family getaway—celebrating the beauty, history and welcoming spirit of the island.

Located in Ko Olina, meaning “fulfillment of joy,” Aulani Resort spans 21 acres along the island’s leeward coast. Perfectly positioned on a beautiful lagoon with a white-sand beach, Aulani Resort is truly a vacationer’s paradise—and only about a 20-minute drive from Honolulu Airport.

With 112 miles of shoreline, O‘ahu is a nature lover's paradise with tons of things to do for families. Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa is nestled in the vibrant Ko Olina community and just a short distance from Honolulu, Waikiki and Kailua—havens for world-class shopping, dining, sightseeing and cultural activities.
