It wasn't quiet a few weeks ago. And honestly, I'd like to be in the pool and not be constantly splashed or deal with shrieking kids. I'm all for kids having fun and enjoying themselves, but a little adult time in Hawaii isn't asking for much.....
No, definitely not asking too much! My wife and I don’t have kids, and just stay away from the pool loungers, and either sit on the beach or in front of Ama Ama. We’ll brave the pool for the slides or lazy river, the high tail it back to our seating elsewhere. We’re going mid May, and I’m hoping there will be less kids, but I doubt it, alas. Still love Aulani though.
IDK why there are so many people against having adult only areas. Even growing up in the 70s, the local community pool had an adults only time every day. Every hour, the lifeguards would take a 10 minute break and anyone under 18 had to get out of the water but adults could stay, and also from 6-8pm was 18 and over. So even family friendly places can have adult only times and areas. It is weird that so many now are against it. I think it is funny that some people that I have seen post on various sites, simultaneously want Aunty's back open but don't think that there should be an adult only pool.
They have not said a word about the adult pool so no can can confirm anything.
Actually, someone who’s staying there can confirm. There’s been no official statement, but that doesn’t mean no one can confirm the current status.
Here now - adult pool is open to anyone, not just adults
Thank you!
Hijacking a little bit: is it generally easy to get a chair on the beach? Do you have to be out there by a certain time? And is there a fee for them?
The beach has a ton of chairs. Even during busy times, you can usually find a chair.
Agreed. Beach chairs are easy, chairs near the main pool can be difficult.
I don't think that they understand that it is not just being in the water, it is the area being kid free. Many adults want to lounge without kid running around and splashing.
Was it still somewhat tranquil compared to the other pools? I have to be honest, I’m distressed to find out there is no adult pool. The website implied there was. I would like to be able to sip my margarita by the pool in peace. Obviously not anti-kid. I raised a fine, upstanding young man but now I’m ready for some peace and quiet. The Four Seasons is 1k a night so we chose Aulani instead. Suddenly questioning my choice.
