Hi! We are going to Aulani in January 2027 for the first time. We have a reservation for a studio villa with a Poolside Gardens view. We really want to have a nice view of the pool area. Does anyone have advice for what I should put in for a room request, to help me get a good pool view? I am unfamiliar with the Aulani towers and what to request to help my chances of getting a nice view. Should I just request a higher floor or be more specific? Thanks in advance!

Most of the higher floors are Ocean View. This site has a really specific breakdown with images. It helped me craft my room request when we went in May 2025. https://mydvcpoints.com/085-aulani-tips-on-booking-a-room-flights-and-car-rentals-a-multiple-dvc-member-review-part-2-of-4-in-our-aulani-review-series/
