Impressive views await guests at every turn, as this resort sits on 21 oceanfront acres! Gaze at the majestic mountains or just take in the calming ocean waters, there is a view to please all guests.

Let’s begin with pools and water play areas. The Waikolohe Pool features the Waikolohe Stream, a lazy river where you can be just that … lazy! Relax as you gently glide through the stream and watch as thrill seekers take on the Volcanic Vertical, a thrilling body slide or the Tubestone Curl tube slide! Adventure awaits!
planDisney Tip: Don’t miss an afternoon enjoying the Ka Maka Grotto. The infinity edge pool overlooking Ko Olina Beach is a stop you can’t miss. And little ones, age five and under, will love splashing around at Keiki Cove Splash Zone!

planDisney Fact: Did you know “Ko Olina” means “Place of Joy?” Part of an original royal land division, Ko Olina was once a sacred area for Hawaiian monarchs and leaders to rest and unwind. We think the name fits this area perfectly and we think you’ll agree on your next stay at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, Hawai’i.
