Top Hanauma Bay Hotel Reviews

Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa, Waikiki Beach

10/10 Excellent

"That was a wonderful place to stay. It was celebrating it 125th anniversary and yet the property was maintained beautifully! The staff is super helpful but best of always the amount of people watching! From surfers to weddings, there were so many people to watch and feel a part of!"

Waikiki Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Daniel greeted us right away and explained everything. The room was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. The hotel was within walking distance to the beach, food, shopping."

Queen Kapiolani Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location is great, walkable to everything. We found out they had beach chairs available for guests m, however they don’t tell you this. It would’ve been helpful to know that’s the first day we got there and not discover it after two days."

Wayfinder Waikiki

10/10 Excellent

"Aloha! I’ve been to Oahu/Waikiki many times and have stayed at different hotels and I’ll say that this was a great hotel. Not the Taj Mahal or the fanciest but it was wonderful. The location is perfect and not too far from anything, the staff was very kind, the pool was amazing and felt private, and it was all around amazing. I’d definitely recommend! Mahalo!"

The Twin Fin Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location. Staff very helpful and friendly. Property Reno was ok. Um. Seemed like inexperienced people renovated it. Sloppy workmanship. Beds were very comfortable. Linen very clean. Pool seemed um old and well needed a good scrubbing. Almost like the rooms need a proper Reno not just a quick paint but proper new tub, sink, doors, etc. But I have stayed better and stayed worse places. But for the price and the location I would stay again. Right across the beach so perfect location."
