This is a more general question, but hoping to benefit from some experienced travelers...
We are looking at a cruise out of Honolulu and would arrive 3-4 days before departure. We haven't been to the island before.
One consideration for the pre-cruise (non Disney Cruise) stay is if we consider Aulani or just find a hotel more in the city/closer to the cruise terminal.
We enjoy Disney (took our now 6 yr old to DL last Dec), but aren't as enthusiastic as others. Is the experience significantly greater than other resort options in the area and/or worth the slightly added travel logistics? Or in our situation would be probably be best to find another choice.
We aren't DVC members or anything like that, so we're paying public rates anywhere we go.
