We just got back from Disney Aulani and my mind is racing because I have so much to share. So I invited my favorite guest on the show, who also happened to be on the trip with me, to talk it over. Chris Brooker and I are dissecting every detail of our recent trip to the Disney Aulani Resort and Spa in this week’s episode.

But I’ll also be sharing more blog posts in the coming weeks to give more detail and show off some of the incredible pictures we took while we were there. Aulani Resort is perfectly placed on the beautiful beaches of Ko Olina on the leeward coast of O‘ahu. The last time I was on O’ahu was when I was 16 years old and vacationing with my mom. And now to be back on the island with my own daughter was such a special moment for me. We swam, ate, swam again, relaxed, napped, dance with Moana, and learned a ton about the Hawaiian culture.

Aulani is part of the Disney Vacation Club and offers members villas to stay in during their visit. We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa that came complete with a kitchen, washer and dryer, 2 balconies and my dream shower. Basically, you can enjoy the comforts of home while relaxing in paradise. There was so much to do at Aulani that we didn’t spend much time in the room. We had a very active 5-year-old with us who wanted to explore everything. So we did!
