We arrived at the resort at around 8 am. We got checked in in less than 5 mins. No temp check, no flower or kukui nut lei greeting , no fresh fruit infused iced water at the entrance either. Our room became available at around 3 pm, though check in is officially at 4pm.
We booked a DVC studio which was enough for us, but alas we were put on the lobby level right by the kids pool area . Our room didn’t have the Mickey shaped towel on the bed, nor the complimentary plumeria flower women can put in their hair. However toiletries, disposable cups, and utensils were available aplenty.
The Pool, and beach areas were nearly empty from 8am until about 11. Plenty of chairs on the beach available. Extremely crowded from then on. While guests are expected to wear wristbands to get access to the pool area, no one seems to be enforcing that. We noticed lots of people without them on, both on deck, and on the beach. Same with masks, half the people were wearing them in the lobby and hallways, as well as walking throughout the property. The other half, however…
For those wanting to know, the refillable mugs aren’t available anymore. Only popcorn buckets.
On to the shop to see what all merch is available. TBC.
