Aloha, Kimberly! Welcome to planDisney--I'm so glad you found us, and I am happy to help add a little extra magic to your upcoming celebration at
Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa.
Aulani is such an amazing place, combining oceanside luxury with Hawaiian culture and art, plus a sprinkle of pixie dust. It's the perfect spot to celebrate a birthday and there are so many fun experiences for
keiki. Currently, there is a not a dedicated provider for in-room gift deliveries. However, there are a few local partners that can deliver flowers, fruit, or some other goodies to the resort. You can
call the friendly Cast Members at the resort for specific details, and deliveries are usually held at the Front Desk for Guests to pick up.
For a celebratory birthday meal with Mickey and pals, the Character breakfast at
Makahiki - The Bounty of the Islands is a perfect way to start your vacation! You can also catch up with Mickey, Moana, Stitch, and other characters around the resort all day long for photos and autographs.
One Aulani activity that my girls loved is
Painted Sky: HI Style Studio. This is a salon for girls and boys ages 3-12 where they can have their hair or nails done, or even receive a Moana-inspired makeover! It's a good idea to make reservations in advance as this is a very popular activity.
There are all sorts of activities every day at
Pau Hana Room - Community Hall that are ideal for some mother-daughter bonding time. You can make your own Mickey ears, take ukelele lessons, paint a new masterpiece together, or make some fun t-shirts to commemorate your trip. Check out the website for specifics on which experiences require reservations (the ukelele lessons in particular book up quickly). The
Daily 'Iwa--also available in the
Aulani app--is a great resource to keep track of all the goings-on at Aulani every day during your stay so you don't miss out on a minute of the fun!
When my kids were younger, they loved having their very own
Disney Gift Card when we vacationed to shop for the perfect souvenir. Gift cards can be used all around the resort for everything from cuddly plush to sweet treats at
Papalua Shave Ice, and your little one will absolutely enjoy the independence of using the card!
Kimberly, I hope these suggestions are helpful as your vacation is coming up soon. Thanks so much for reaching out to our planDisney
'Ohana and please come back and see us again with any other questions to make your stay as magical as can be.
Welcome Home!
