"Offers beach towels, chairs , cooler / floaties and even ice! Such a great place to stay in Waikiki. Close to the beach & amazing staff. Highly recommend coming here"

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"100 recommend. Clean rooms- amenities are great. Tapa bar entertainment and service are great."

'Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very nice. Rooms are spacious and beds very comfortable. Carpet in hallways and rooms need replacing. The design makes the carpet look old and dirty. Resort options were a nice feature where we could get beach chairs and umbrellas was great. Location was ideal. Just a quick walk across the street. Pool and jacuzzi were nice features. Could use more lounge chairs. Overall, I would stay here again."

Park Shore Waikiki

8/10 Good

"Good place to stay at"

Queen Kapiolani Hotel

8/10 Good

"Oh, we ordered a Oceanview and what we got was a pool view, some trees and way far off yonder the ocean. We requested a change of room and got four floors higher, but at least we got to see the ocean. The food was a little bit, salty and undercooked for salmon . We asked about the lai demonstration. She had never offered to tell us. It is an outdated hotel since we were basically just sleeping and leaving. It worked ok."
