| | I just returned from a fascinating preview "hard-hat" tour of Disney's new Aulani Resort in Hawaii, which will be ready to welcome families in August 2011. | | Disney's Hawaii Resort - Aulani You'll be able to start booking in August this year, for this new resort in the Ko Olina area of Oahu. The resort has a choice location on a sandy bay, some super features, and a dedication to Hawaiian culture -- expect beautiful design and layers of detailing. I'll be writing more about this resort soon... Meanwhile, now's a good time to check out Disney deals for other Disney destinations, for late summer and early fall. | Hawaii Resorts I also learned first-hand last week that summer's a popular time for Hawaii family vacations: Waikiki Beach was full of folk sunning, swimming, or learning to surf, or trying out stand-up paddle-boarding in the newly-restored lagoon. Of course there are many quieter islands and areas for families, too. | Cartibbean: SPF Months at Beaches Shifting sights to the Caribbean... "Summer" deals here continue on many islands, and at many resorts. Beaches family all inclusive resorts, for instance, are moving into their "SPF" months: and no, this isn't about a type of sunscreen. It's a recurring promotion called "Single Parents Fun", with good price breaks. | London With Kids Taking another hop, across the pond: the exchange rate's good, and -- even better-- London's top museums are free. Head to the city of kings and queens, Mary Poppins, Oliver Twist, Platform 9-3/4... kids already "know" London and are all set to enjoy sightseeing. | | | | Family Vacations Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | More from About.com | | | | | | Plan a Unique Vegas Wedding The minister, music and champagne are just the beginning -- why not get married aboard a helicopter or have a pirate swing in to deliver your rings?
