'Ohana reservations and alerts

What you get at 'Ohana

'Ohana serves a family-style, all-you-care-to-enjoy meal in a South Pacific setting overlooking the Seven Seas Lagoon. Dinner is the headliner: Grilled meats and shrimp arrive at your table on skewers, alongside noodles, wings, and the famous 'Ohana bread pudding.

Breakfast is a character meal with Lilo, Stitch, Mickey, and Pluto, which makes it a favorite for families traveling with young kids.

Why 'Ohana is so hard to book

There is only one 'Ohana, and it sits inside Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, one of the most popular hotels on property. Both the character breakfast and the signature dinner draw heavy demand, so tables fill the moment they open.

Large parties and prime dinner times around sunset are the first to go, and they rarely stay open for long.

At the same resort, Wailulu Bar & Grill is a newer table with island flavors and a busy bar.

When 'Ohana reservations open and drop

Walt Disney World releases dining reservations 60 days ahead, and 'Ohana is often gone within minutes of that window opening.

The good news: Openings reappear regularly as other guests change their plans, most often in the 24 to 48 hours before a date when cancellation penalty windows pass. Staying flexible on your time is the biggest part of how to get 'Ohana reservations, and it makes a match far more likely.

How to catch an 'Ohana cancellation

Refreshing the Disney app for days rarely works, because a canceled table can be re-booked within minutes. An alert does the watching for you and pings you the moment a spot matching your date and party size opens.
