Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The adults only infinity pool.. ..9.5.. almost Great I did not like sharing hot tubs with children / toddlers"

OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Overall, the property is wonderful. The beds were comfy. The lanai was nice to have coffee on in the morning. However, the shower drain in our room didn’t work very well - not a big deal. Multiple plug ins didn’t work - not a big deal. The pool was a bit of a disappointment, due to how deep it was, and a lack of floaties. The other Outrigger has a much nicer pool set up. We also had one night where we were getting packed up because the pool was closing (at 9, which seems kind of early in Hawaii), and were being rushed to get out. And the pool assistant made us drop the pineapple creme brulee we had just waited over an hour and a half for, because the grill restaurant kept forgetting us. I went back up about 5 times. So dropping it due to being rushed, was, incredibly frustrating. Especially for the price of it, and how long we had to wait for it. I started to feel like a bit of an inconvenience. We had a similar experience at Monkeypod. Ordered drinks while waiting for our food - didn’t get the drinks until after our food arrived, again, an hour later. I think it would be helpful to have some extra linens in the room. We were chilly the first night. But without the ac set low, it would get too hot. The second night I requested extra blankets and we were much more comfortable. We also had one cockroach incident, which I was not prepared for at 2:30 in the morning - so I went and woke my mom up 😂 and had her kill it. I understand that this is perhaps to be expected in Hawaii."

Luana Waikiki Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"This is our second time staying at the Luana Waikiki hotel. The kitchenette is very helpful and makes things easier for us to save money and prepare/eat meals. We enjoyed eating our meals out on the balcony — our favorite place with an ocean view (14th floor). The staff were so friendly and helpful. The only reason I gave four stars is because we were surprised by the way our fitted sheet for our bed — it didn’t cover to the full wraparound. As a result, our fitted sheet would shrink and expose the mattress pad which had some soiled spots. Unpleasant to see. We told housekeeping but due to their three day cleanup rule, we already checked out on the fourth day. That’s the only disappointment we experienced."

Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We truly enjoyed our stay at Holiday Inn Express Waikiki!! Room was a bit tight, but extremely clean. Amenities like the pool and activities on the 5th floor is great for the kids. Location is great, walkable to major Waikiki attractions. Of particular note for exceptional service was Grandma Gladys at the front desk. A whiz at her job and such an amazing person. She made our stay exceptional and really made the difference. Definitely recommend. "
