The Ritz-Carlton O‘ahu, Turtle Bay
"Stayed in the bungalow's. Pool area more private but was surprised at the amount of kids. Numerous families with babies in pool in diapers, which is disgusting. Not good in any pool, but this pool is a small body of water. Staff did nothing , said they provide swim pants if the parent asks."
