Aloha, Michael! Welcome back to planDisney! Mahalo for stopping by with such great vacation planning questions. I just love chatting about magical vacations with my pals, pal!
In just weeks, you'll be arriving at the gorgeous, grand lobby of
Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa, feeling the warm breeze, hearing ukulele music and waves lap the shoreline and tasting that first sip of a mai tai from a pineapple. Ahhhh. Vacation mode: activated! I am so excited for you to have a magical and memorable vacation in this pixie-dusted paradise, and I'm thrilled to answer your questions to help make your incredible stay a tropical breeze!
I spoke with the most helpful Cast Member at Aulani (Seriously, the Cast Members here are incredible!), and she informed me that Aulani
does now have mobile ordering offered at
Off the Hook, the pool-adjacent lounge and dining area. When you check in at the Resort, you will be given information that will contain the QR code that will bring you to the online ordering page or you can find the QR code at the front of the restaurant. Happy poolside dining, my friend!
The Aulani Cast Member also informed me that while MagicBands are not officially used there yet, she has had several Guests report that their MagicBands do work for room and pool area entry. She recommends bringing your MagicBand with you to see if it will work there, but just be aware that the Bands, unfortunately, do not work for everyone. However, even if your MagicBand does work to enter your room, still make sure to stop at the front desk to get your room key so that you will be able to charge your purchases back to your room.
Did you know that you can request any drink at Aulani to be served in a pineapple? Did you even go to Hawaii if you didn't sip a delicious drink from a pineapple?! Alooooha!
Michael, I hope this was helpful, and I hope you have an unforgettable time in paradise! Please stop by any time with any questions you may have along the way.
A Hui Hou (Until we meet again),
Mandy
