We could not get Aulani for our entire stay, so we booked the first two nights at the Marriott Ko Olina. There is, however, a standard view studio available for the first night we'll be there.
We don't really want to stay in the studio the first night, and then move to the Marriott for one night, and then move again. However, if we book the studio, even if we don't sleep there, I believe it should ensure that we have Aulani access for our entire trip -- on the first day, it's check in day, so even if our room is not ready when we arrive, we can hang out there. On day two, it's check out day, so I think we're entitled to access to Aulani for the whole day, right? On day three, it's check in day again, so we could go over early in the morning. So, basically, we get a day room for a portion of the first two days to use if we don't want to trek to the Marriott, and we get two days of Aulani access.
If anyone sees any problems with the logic, please let me know. More important, for those who have been to Aulani, would you think 18 points is worth spending to have access to Aulani for the first two days of our stay?
