Disney is sending surveys to Disneyland Annual Passholders to determine what they know about Disney Vacation Club, Hawai'i and the Aulani resort project.

Television station KABC in Los Angeles takes a look at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa. The coverage includes a 3 minute video clip highlighting details of the resort while still under construction, as well as a look at the surrounding area in Hawai'i.

Disney has published a time lapse video of Aulani resort construction dating back to 2008.  Click inside to view.

Visits to timeshare resorts in Hawai'i--including Disney's Aulani resort--are subject to a usage tax imposed by the state.  While the fees are currently modest, lawmakers are considering changes to the tax rate which could nearly quadruple the amounts paid by timeshare guests.

Beginning later this year, guest to Walt Disney World Resort in Florida will be able to tour model units of the Aulani villas being constructed in Hawai'i.
