You may want to book a stay at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa! After all, you’ll be able to hang out with characters and attend a pretty cool luau. Not to mention, there are some great deals going on here in 2021, from summer and fall savings to special military offers! But if you’re serious about booking, you’ll want to make your reservation ASAP so you can save even MORE.

Aulani’s late summer and fall offer gives you the chance to save up to 30% on select rooms for stays of 5 or more consecutive nights on select dates! To take advantage of this offer, you’ll need to book your stay by October 8th.

But if you book by May 23rd, you qualify for even MORE savings! With a stay of 5+ consecutive nights, you’ll get a $200 resort credit. And with a stay of 4 consecutive nights, your resort credit will be $150! That credit can go towards souvenirs, snacks, and more, so it can really help your budget — and help you treat yourself.

You’ll get 1 resort credit per reservation, which will be applied to your room’s account when you check in. From there, charge your applicable purchases to your room to redeem your credit! Again, while the 30% savings are valid for booking through October 8th, you’ll want to book by May 23rd to snag this additional credit.

We’ve been enjoying all sorts of eats inside the parks, but many restaurants are still shuttered. However, we’ve gotten BIG news recently about some restaurants that are reopening soon — and now, we’ve got an update about WHEN you can book your reservations.

If you’re planning a trip to Alfresco Tasting Terrace, you’ll be able to book reservations online starting May 18th. Keep in mind that this lounge is opening on May 20th exclusively for Legacy Passholders and their guests, so not everyone will be able to dine here.

Blue Bayou is reopening on May 27th, with reservations available starting May 18th…

…while Napa Rose is reopening the following day, on May 28th, with reservations open starting May 18th. Upon reopening, this spot will only serve dinner.

Storytellers Cafe is reopening on May 28th for breakfast and dinner, but without characters. Again, you’ll be able to book your reservation starting May 18th!

Storytellers Cafe

And GCH Craftsman Bar will start taking online reservations on May 28th. This restaurant reopened exclusively to hotel guests with Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel last month, but these reservations mean non-hotel guests will be able to dine here soon.

Lastly, Paradise Garden Grill is opening on May 13th (that’s SOON, guys!). Obviously, you don’t need reservations to enjoy this Quick Service spot!

Phew, that’s a LOT of exciting news! We’ll be sure to keep you posted as all of these restaurants reopen — and we’ll stay on top of any other Disney updates. Stay tuned to DFB!

Blue Bayou Atmosphere

Blue Bayou is located INSIDE of part of Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean ride and overlooks the ride’s boats and their guests as they float by. When it reopens, it is set to offer a whole bunch of new beverage options for guests to enjoy including a series of alcoholic beverages.
