Honeymooners’ Guide to Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa

[Disney4me]

If you are set on a Hawaiian honeymoon, O‘ahu might be your perfect island escape. Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, is situated on a tranquil part of the island’s leeward (or west) coast and provides an ideal experience for honeymooners interested in a romantic escape, but with a touch of Disney’s magic.

Here are some honeymoon-perfect activities:

Couples Massage at Laniwai Spa
Check in to our award-winning Laniwai Spa for special “you and me time.” I recommend booking one of our couples massages for ultimate pampering. The treatment, ‘Ohi’a Lehua “Love Story” for Two, includes a custom signature tropical exfoliation, followed by a lomilomi massage. You and your new spouse are also invited to relax in the Kula Wai, the spa’s outdoor hydrotherapy garden. With inviting pools, soaking tubs and waterfall rain showers, you won’t want to leave this oasis!

Private Portrait Session with Disney PhotoPass
With the splendor of Aulani as a backdrop, schedule a portrait session with one of our professional photographers. I recommend having your photos taken on the beautiful lagoon or among the Waikolohe Valley’s lushly green landscaping. Sessions typically last around 30-40 minutes – plenty of time to capture a happy couple in paradise.

Island Excursion with Disney Adventure Guides
No trip to O‘ahu would be complete without exploring a few of the island’s natural wonders. My favorite excursion takes place both on land and sea. The Kualoa Ranch Experience is an all-day adventure exclusive to Aulani guests. You’ll embark on a horseback ride through the ranch and enjoy lunch and leisure time on a private beach. Then you’ll hop aboard a catamaran to look for Hawaii’s magnificent green sea turtles.

Sunset Cocktails at ‘Alohi Point
For sweeping and unforgettable sunset views, I recommend ending each day at ‘Alohi Point, our double-terraced whirlpool spa overlooking the ocean. Before heading over, stop by the Wailana Pool Bar for a specialty cocktail. I love the refreshing Pau Hana Punch!

Dinner at ‘AMA‘AMA
At our signature restaurant, ‘AMA‘AMA, our chefs use fresh, local ingredients and island flavors to create delicious dishes. Indulge in the ‘AMA‘AMA Menu For Two, a perfect pairing for the occasion. This tasting menu begins with an appetizer sampler of the chef’s choosing. For the entrée, a Harris Ranch natural angus chateaubriand is served for two, along with farmer’s market vegetables, roasted fingerling potatoes and hamakua mushrooms. Lastly, end your meal with the mocha chantilly cake or lemon grass crème catalana. Love is delicious!
