Growing up in a family whose lives revolved around all things Disney, it was a no brainer the family to pick staying at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa on our first trip to Hawai’i. From the moment you step in to the lobby you are greeted with the beautiful scent of plumeria leis and ice cold refreshments. The Disney magic isn’t contained in just their parks, it reaches across the Pacific Ocean to a breathtaking resort in paradise. Out of all the magic memories I carry with me for a lifetime, having brunch with Mickey with the Pacific Ocean in the background and watching the beautiful sunsets from the KA MAKA GROTTO have got to be on the top of my list. Keep your eyes peeled for mischievous Menehune on the Menehune Adventure Trail.
