Update to Hawaii State Transient Accommodations Tax
July 31, 2025
The State of Hawai‘i charges a Transient Accommodations Tax or TAT for hotels, short-term vacation rentals and time shares. The current State of Hawai‘i TAT of 10.25% will increase to 11% beginning January 1, 2026. The 3% City & County of Honolulu TAT and 4.712% Hawaii General Excise Tax remain unchanged at this time.
Please keep the following in mind when booking a stay for your clients at Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa:
Room-Only
Due to technology limitations, the updated 11% TAT rate will not be included in the final booking price for room-only reservations until it takes effect on January 1, 2026. A notification about the updated 2026 TAT rate will appear when booking an Aulani vacation. The 10.25% tax rate will be charged through the end of 2025, even for stays in 2026.
For 2026 room-only stays that were booked before January 1, 2026, your client will see the increased TAT on their resort folio, and the additional 0.75% will be charged upon check-in or checkout.
Packages (Add-on ground transportation or Vacation Protection Plan)
The updated 2026 11% TAT rate will be reflected in the final booking price for Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa packages.
Your affected clients will receive an email from Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa about this update. They are encouraged to reach out to their Travel Agent for assistance.
