Beachside at Aulani

The Aulani Resort & Spa fronts Ko Olina Lagoon #1--a series of four lagoons for the scattering of resorts located in this west Oahu community.  The beachfront is actually public--Aulani's formal boundaries end along the sidewalk that connects adjacent hotels.  But it's heavily used by Aulani guests for sunbathing, swimming, and beach activities.  Protected from the waves by a breakwater that arcs along the ocean edge, it's a radiant and photogenic scene for a lovely photograph of this most beautiful Disney hotel and resort!
