We have been on DCL twice in the past year- both Bahamian cruises and we have never been to Aulani. We bought DVC points at Aulani and we are considering using our points to go to Aulani during spring break by ourselves (2 adults) and then invite our friends (another couple) to stay with us 9 months later. But... I have a pretty good price on a 7 night eastern carribean cruise at $4200 with a verandah making it the same cost (including flights, food, excursions, etc.) if we were to do Aulani. I'm a teacher so this is one of the only spring breaks we have that happens to not fall during Easter making the cruise less expensive than usual ($6,000+ during holidays). But... part of me also wants to go to our newly purchased DVC resort ASAP and experience it alone first so we know what we are doing and can enjoy it sooner. But I do REALLY love Castaway Cay and DCL... I keep going back and forth!
Would you choose to do Aulani twice in a year (one alone, one with friends) or do a 7 night eastern carribean and then Aulani just once with friends? We wouldn't be able to make it back to Aulani again after the trip with friends for 2 years because we would be borrowing points.
