We are planning on a trip in June 2018 for 2 adults and 2 teens ages 18 and 17. This will be our last big family vacation before high school graduation and will be our 20th anniversary, so we are looking for a special trip. I have read through many of the posts on here but am struggling to put it all together. We will probably stay 9-12 nights
1) should we get two studios or a 2 bedroom? I am leaning toward the 2 bedroom for the washer and dryer and two baths, but can get the two baths with a studio to save points
2) is Aulani too far off the beaten path that we can't use it as our home base? Should we stay somewhere else instead?
3) are gluten free products easy to find at the grocery or do we need to pack them in?
4) our must do activities include a PH tour (did I read it correctly that I must book this as an excursion or risk not getting in), helicopter flight (any suggestions), beach visits (where is the best?), visiting parks and picnicking (suggestions anyone)
5) is parking at the resort included for DVV members?
6) do you normally book flights with a travel agent? I have been watching them for awhile and would rather fly SW as far as I can but then have to deal with piecing all of the flights together myself. We are coming from Ohio
I am sure I will have many more questions so feel free to throw in anymore advice.
Thanks
