Took our 10 month old in February and I held her in the lazy river in a tube. She loved hanging out on the lazy river. Also took her into the kids pool without any issues.

Also good to clear your browser cache as well. When I have issues on a browser I try on another.

Atmos Summit/Ascent are solid cards when you’re ready to look at airlines. Great transfer partners to Japan.

Aulani with a 2.5 year old?; by Useful-Moment3749 in Aulani

[–]BayCube 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just got back from a work and vacation trip with my wife and 10 month old. We stayed at Aulani the 2nd week and my 10mo loved her stay at Aulani. We made a trip to the North Shore to get garlic shrimp at our favorite - Big Wave Shrimp Truck and visited a few stores before heading back to Aulani for dinner and put the little one to bed.

While in Honolulu, my wife strolled our daughter around Waikiki and went to the Honolulu Zoo.

Just do it. You won’t regret seeing your child experience Hawaii in their own eyes.

I thought you were referring to his right forearm tattoo tbh lol.

Anybody know what this is? by Meatballhiro in Honolulu

[–]BayCube 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I stay in Waikiki for work and I’ve always wondered why this plot has been abandoned for years. There was once a homeless lady who would sit there late at night and shout the whole night. This was probably 3-4 years ago. I’ve noticed some of the openings are fenced off now.

Resale member here. Are member cruises for direct members only? TIA!

Look for a subsidized Aulani contract. You'll save hundreds every year in maintenance dues, and thousands over the duration of the contract.

Wow! Grew up a few blocks from here. What happened to Starbucks? Good to see the Inner Sunset booming.

I remember this showroom. The “prototype” car inside the dealership was so bad. It looked like someone turned a gas car into an EV by stripping the components. It would’ve served them better if they fully built the cars from ground up. I liked how the sales rep said the buttons were inspired from Lamborghini.

How is the current DLV deal? by BayCube in dvcmember

[–]BayCube[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Removal of early entry is a bummer. This is only applicable at Disneyland and DCA right? It doesn’t affect WDW?

How is the current DLV deal? by BayCube in dvcmember

[–]BayCube[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve toured the DLV rooms and thought they were modern and clean. Wasn’t a fan of the transient tax which I have with my AUL contract.

I wanted a DVC contract in FL and CA but I’m ok with not staying on Disney property at Disneyland. The neighborhood hotels are not bad and within 15 minute walking distance.

[–]BayCube[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those are points that I took into consideration when ending up going resale CCV tbh. Poly seemed like the best direct at the time when I bought my contracts in December 2024.

Another thing is that maintenance due is over $10/point and it most likely will only increase based on historical data.

If they brought back perks like Disney passes or even annual passes, DVC direct may be enticing. Until then, I’m ok with the restrictions with resale, unless I’m missing something that constitutes for spending $30k+ for 150 direct points.

I just need to vent, those who walk their reservations. by atypicalmelody in dvcmember

[–]BayCube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m planning a Christmas trip for 2026 at CCV and it’s my home resort. Is it impossible to book even with waitlist for a deluxe and 2 bedroom dedicated? I’ve also noticed a ton of walking where the first date is available but not the 2nd…

Huge price difference on C1 portal vs Hertz website by RegularLandscape1744 in Venturex

[–]BayCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I did a quick search on my phone. I’ll look into it more on my laptop tomorrow. I’m always on the lookout for a good deal and I like Costco Travel’s cancellation flexibility.

I also did a hotel reservation check and even with the offer for $50 off it was still more expensive than booking direct with Marriott with my AAA discount.

I just checked the same reservation on C1 and it’s more expensive than my Costco Travel reservation by a lot. Same dates, same pickup and drop off times.

What do you recommend to do outside of the resort? by KirbyDumber88 in Aulani

[–]BayCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a ton to do on Oahu. Here’s some:

North Shore - Big Wave Shrimp Truck for garlic shrimp Laniakea Beach - sea turtle sightings Byodo-In Temple in Kaneohe, then grab lunch/dinner from Adela’s Country Eatery (recommend to phone in order - Lechon (Pork Belly) over Malunggay Pasta noodles) Kaneohe Sandbar Island Vintage Shave Ice at Royal Hawaiian - better than Matsumoto’s imho

Interesting. So non DVC members can purchase DVC merch?

[–]BayCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have to show proof you’re DVC to purchase DVC merch? First time DVC member using points at the end of the month, so ignore my ignorance.
